Biography
Jennifer’s clients trust her to handle their commercial, corporate and insurance litigation in Delaware’s state and federal courts. Her breadth of knowledge, judgment and experience are valued assets to her clients, co-counsel, and colleagues. Jennifer has tried cases for Fortune 500 companies in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, the Delaware Court of Chancery and the Complex Commercial Litigation Division of the Delaware Superior Court. She has been involved in many of the most important insurance coverage actions in Delaware for over a decade, representing policyholders. In 2023, her partners elected her to serve as the At-Large Member of the Firm’s Executive Committee.
Jennifer has received an “AV Preeminent” peer-review rating from Martindale-Hubbell, and as one client noted in her profile, “Jennifer’s character, integrity, and intellect are second to none. She is the first litigator I would call for high stakes litigation in Delaware.”
