About

Jennifer is certified as a Family Law Specialist by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. She earned a B.A. in Law and Society from the University of California at Santa Barbara and her law degree from Santa Clara University. Jennifer is a member of the Association of Certified Family Law Specialists, and member of the Santa Clara County Bar Association and is a member of the Family Law Executive Committee of the Santa Clara County Bar Association. Jennifer has lectured at multiple seminars for the Santa Clara County Bar Association, and Santa Clara University School of Law, and also serves as Judge Pro Tem for the Santa Clara County Superior Court.Since becoming exclusively a family law attorney in 2000, Jennifer has acted both as litigator and mediator. She has successfully handled a variety of complex family law cases involving domestic violence, child custody/visitation, child support, spousal support/alimony, financial property, and divorce. She also handles other areas of family law, including paternity, postnuptial agreements, prenuptial agreements, annulment, legal separation, and stepparent adoptions and mediation. Dealing with real people, helping them solve their problems, and making a real difference in their lives and the lives of their families is important to her.Jennifer’s interest and exposure to family law was sparked at the age of 15 when her own parents filed for divorce. She later joined her high school’s mock trial team, acting as team prosecutor, which cemented her dream to become a litigating attorney. Jennifer understands the stress and problems that can arise when dealing with the legal process in the area of family law —for both parents and children. As a family law attorney, she wants to make sure that her clients have the tools, information, and options that they need to successfully deal with their family matter.

Alexis was an amazing attorney in my divorce case. I had a highly litigated and contested case. She has been in my corner since the beginning, and assisted me every step of the way. I could not imagine what my situation would be like if Alexis was not leading the ship!

I just want to say how much I appreciate Alexis and all she has done for me over the year. It felt like it was never going to end, but I'm so happy this is now finally closed out and I can move on with my life. I can't imagine having survived it without you!

Alexis helped me get through the worst time in my life and I was very grateful to have her as my attorney. She has a very approachable personality which made me feel relaxed and comfortable. Not only is she very bright, but she also genuinely cared about my case. She was always very responsive and engaged. I highly recommend her and I could not have asked for a better attorney.
