About Jennifer

Jennifer Gibbs earned her Bachelor of Arts in Education and History from Washington University in St. Louis in 1993. She later returned to graduate study, receiving a Master of Science from Georgia State University College of Law in 2005. Gibbs completed her legal education at Emory University School of Law, receiving her J.D. in 2009.

After law school she built a practice in the Atlanta area and is an attorney at Gibbs Law Office. She is admitted to practice in Georgia State and Superior Courts and is also admitted to the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Her admissions extend to the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia Supreme Court. Gibbs maintains membership in the Georgia State Bar and remains active in local legal circles.

Gibbs’ work centers on family law. She handles matters that commonly appear in state trial courts: divorce, child custody, child support and spousal support disputes, and the division of marital assets. She also navigates post-judgment enforcement and modification proceedings. Because she is admitted to appellate courts in the state, her practice can include matters that move beyond the trial level.

Her involvement in professional organizations reflects that concentration. Gibbs is a current member of the State Bar of Georgia Family Law Section and participates in the DeKalb Bar Association and its Family Law Section. Those memberships keep her connected to nearby practitioners and to discussion of evolving family law issues in Georgia.

Colleagues describe Gibbs as straightforward in court and careful in preparation. She appears in both state and federal venues when cases require it, and she manages a caseload that spans contested litigation and negotiated resolutions. Her academic background in education and history, together with a graduate law degree, informs how she organizes facts and presents legal arguments.

Gibbs continues to practice in the Atlanta area, representing clients in family law matters. Her current practice focuses on family law matters.
