Justine is very responsive to the needs of her clients. I recently worked with Justine to review a contract and she completed a thorough analysis within a one week time frame as requested.

I wanted to reach out and thank you once again for such a spectacular presentation last Friday. I received great feedback and many have asked for the recording. I feel like it was just what we all needed to help us refocus and “find our zen.” Thank you!!!!

Monica Mensah Assistant Dean for Student Affairs, University of Houston Law Center

I really, really enjoyed your class. Driving home I thought that every law firm in Houston should hire you! Clerks and new lawyers need these skill sets.

As I said at the Jung Center, your practices are better than a glass of wine. I continue to do your shoulder exercises and spinal twist. I felt these stretches for days. Please keep me on your list for other seminars. Thanks again.

Justine helped me write a poignant agreement contract for both my clients and me to follow. It was a clean document that was easy to understand and gave both sides of the table a solid foundation to work from. I would happily use Justine again for any work that involved finding common ground to then work from.

Ileya Grosman, M.Ed. Client

I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed the course at the Jung Center. I have attended mindfulness trainings for lawyers led by non-lawyers & yoga classes taught by former lawyers, but yours was the first I have attended that was taught by someone who really understood and sustained both practices at the same time. I found the course very accessible and felt connected to and inspired by your experience -- thank you!

Even having practiced law myself, I never really resonated with the term “counselor at law”. When I started working with Justine, that changed. Instead of simply reacting to the legal issue at hand, we discuss the totality of the circumstances. She understands that my business is an extension of me, and she counsels me, legally and emotionally, accordingly.

Elizabeth Whitehead

As a new entrepreneur, I reached out to Justine to write my first business contract. I trusted that Justine would create a fair, collaborative contract that would not intimidate my clients, and would protect me and my work. She thoughtfully listened to my needs and came up with creative solutions, not giving me a cookie-cutter contract. As a multi-faceted business owner herself, Justine appreciates the intricacies of being a service provider and maintaining clients' trust. Justine is extremely professional, yet maintains mindfulness in all her endeavors. I could not recommend her any more highly!
