Retained as legal counsel for the child. When retained she met with child and father several times before meeting with mother in a legal capacity (July 2020), who was self-representing at that time. She openly condemned mother's actions regarding child's past disclosures which were fully investigated by appropriate professionals. She told mother that children don't always tell the truth. The mother had parenting and mental health assessed with positive results, no issues flagged. Ms. Shaften in January 2021 took extreme measures to remove the child from the mother's care based on the child's disclosures and against an order for 50/50 parenting her office drafted. Father has never had parenting or mental health assessed. A PN7 report came out with a number of red flags about the father.Ms.Shaften ignored all of this and continues to favor the father.Even only meeting with the child while in dad's care. Unprofessional,no integrety, dishonest, not able to act in best interest of child.

Jennifer has a reputation, and if you observe how other lawyers, judges and folks in the Family Law business respond and interact with Jennifer it will become clear. Jennifer is very well respected, has a fantastic knowledge base and knows how to apply that knowledge. She cares, has integrity, and is honest. Which, if your are her client you must be prepared for......she will tell you what you "need" to hear, not what you "want" to hear. For me and my situation, she was a blessing, always balanced and kept me balanced. I put tenacity at a 3 because of her balance...you don't want a lawyer who just wants to "win" they cost you more in the long run...but trust me when I say this, if the time comes when tenacity is required, and as a client you are in the right....watch her go. But the balance to that is, if your the BSC one, she will let you know, because that is what is right.
