Ayanna L. Jenkins-Toney Has Been Recognized Among the Top in Her Industry by the Expert Network©
San Francisco, CA, March 29, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Ayanna L. Jenkins-Toney, Founder, The Law Offices of Ayanna L. Jenkins-Toney, has joined The Expert Network©, an invitation-only service for distinguished professionals. Ms. Jenkins-Toney has been chosen as a Distinguished Lawyer™ based on peer reviews and ratings, dozens of recognitions, and accomplishments achieved throughout her career.
Ms. Jenkins-Toney outshines others in her field due to her extensive educational background, numerous awards and recognitions, and career longevity. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Howard University in 1997 and her Juris Doctor from Golden Gate University School of Law in 2001. Among many other honors, Ms. Jenkins-Toney was listed in the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys Top 40 under 40 in 2015, the National Black Lawyers Top 100 in 2015, and received the American Institute Client Satisfaction Award in 2016.
"There have been several years where cases were in arbitration or came to an alternative dispute resolution, which was good, at least in theory. Typically, cases would stop earlier in the litigation process and then there would be less proceeds for the client. However, many litigants were left dissatisfied with these outcomes. By letting the cases go further, and not giving up when facing summary judgments, plaintiffs have better chances. Being a litigator myself, I welcome an opportunity to have an agreement where the parties settle everything amicably."
Ayanna L. Jenkins-Toney, Esq., Founder, The Law Offices of Ayanna L. Jenkins-Toney
With nearly 14 years dedicated to law, Ms. Jenkins-Toney brings a wealth of knowledge to her industry and in particular to her area of specialization, Family Law, as well as her appellate practice and general civil litigation. When asked why she decided to pursue a career in law, Ms. Jenkins-Toney said:
"I sent off for the LSATs and the MCAT, and the LSAT information came first. When I took the test, I checked the box to release my scores to potential schools. And before I even got my scores back, I got 72 letters from law schools. I never took the MCAT."
Ms. Jenkins-Toney continued to develop her passion for justice in the American judicial system while attending law school first in New York and later in San Francisco. Upon being admitted to practice in 2003, she went on to open offices in San Francisco and San Rafael, California, where she serves high-worth individuals and families in a variety of civil practice matters. With in-depth experience in areas ranging from child custody to personal injury, Ms. Jenkins-Toney strategizes with each of her clients to provide the best possible outcome. Ms. Jenkins-Toney is also the founder of the National Justice Network, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a commitment to uniting attorneys who prioritize combating injustice.
Her tenacity and meticulousness set Ms. Jenkins-Toney apart from her peers. With a wide-ranging legal background, a decade and a half of experience, and active involvement in her community, Ms. Jenkins-Toney commits fully to advocating for each and every client she takes on. As a skilled litigator, she believes in taking each case as far as it will go in the court system. She is unafraid to appeal and resubmit cases which have not been resolved in her clients’ best interests.
As a thought-leader in her field, Ms. Jenkins-Toney pays careful attention to prevailing trends in the field of civil litigation. Lately, she has noticed some tension between alternative dispute resolution and the traditional trial process. She noted:
"There have been several years where cases were in arbitration or came to an alternative dispute resolution, which was good, at least in theory. Typically, cases would stop earlier in the litigation process and then there would be less proceeds for the client. However, many litigants were left dissatisfied with these outcomes. By letting the cases go further, and not giving up when facing summary judgments, plaintiffs have better chances. Being a litigator myself, I welcome an opportunity to have an agreement where the parties settle everything amicably."
