Bankruptcy and Foreclosure Help

Jeff and his team where very helpful with our situation. That time in our life was very difficult and his law firm did everything they could to make it easier. Thank you.

A burnt out Lawyer

Run FAR away from this guy...we had to file my BK case more than once because he forgot to do what the trustee ordered. He doesnt call back when I leave him a message. He needs to retire or just move onto something else. He also runs a insurance call center in his law office?..how tacky

Avvo Rating

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.
