Jennifer A. Forquer

Jennifer A. Forquer has been with Meridian Family Law since 2011 and has been a partner since 2013. She decided to dedicate her career to family law in 2001 when she joined a boutique, family law firm in Bethesda, Maryland where she eventually became a partner. She returned to Washington 2007 and after a brief hiatus she returned to the practice of family law in 2009.

She has extensive experience in family law and provides a wide range of services. These include representation in complex divorce proceedings, high-asset divorce, child support, same-sex family law issues, co-habitation agreements, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, collaborative divorce, parenting plans, and post-divorce matters such as modification of child support, modification of spousal support (alimony) and the enforcement of court orders and settlement agreements.

She works closely with her clients to ensure they have the information they need to make informed decisions and to plan their path forward. She believes that her clients and their children future is of utmost importance, and that while contested litigation is sometimes necessary or unavoidable, practical advice and out of court solutions can often lead to better, long-term results and can allow people to resolve their family matter with respect. In addition to being an adept litigator, she is collaboratively trained and represents clients in the collaborative divorce process.

She's been married and divorced, but now lives with her significant other (Jeff) and their two adopted and spoiled cats. She and Jeff travel frequently to AK and the east coast to visit family.
