This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Too arrogant

He does what he is best in, trials, bills, and repeat. I tried to settle with my ex and he encouraged me not to. I did what legal advise recommended, not settle. In retrospect it was a terrible decision, drained my pockets, and made Jeff richer. You've been warned.

Worst of the worst

Do. Not. Use. I used him in my complex custody case and all he did was promised things that he didn't deliver. I had heard about his terrible reputation, but I didn't listen. I ended up paying for it. Not only did my spouse get a better judgement but it took three years! What a mistake

Worse than the Worst attorney

Promised the world delivered nothing kept billing and said would collect from ex. Never any resolution of any filings. Judges and other attorneys don’t like him. You have been warned

Truly a lifesaver

I hired Jeffrey and his firm for my custody battle close to 10 years ago, and he beyond saved my life. It was a very complex trial, with many religious, financial, and more corruption and he handled it professionally and like a legal shark. I recommend this law firm a million times over and have sent... others to them as well, who had experienced satisfaction, too.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
