The best in the business

I consulted with Jeff about a very difficult, messy and emotionally charged custody battle. Jeff detailed my options, explained the approach we should take, and answered all my questions. This was far from an open and closed case, due to the other parties defiance for no reason other than to be defia...nt. Jeff kept me informed, discussed next steps at every turn, and answered many many of my questions. In the end, it played out the exact way he said it would. He is knowledgeable to an expert level of the law as it relates to custody/child support disputes. I will never hire another attorney and refer any and all that ask to him!

Jury trial

Jeff was a trial attorney for my son, jeff did all he said he would do and did it with class. His trial experience was obvious and he handled the case with class. I highly recommend.

Excellent divorce attorney

I hired Jeff for a horrible divorce in Johnson County. Restraining order, child abuse, parental alienation, and a spouse with mental health issues refusing to settle the divorce. Jeff has handled everything perfectly. He's patient even when I've been at my wits end with my spouse's behavior. Je...ff's been thorough and understands what to do ahead of each step in the divorce proceedings. My divorce case has been as high conflict a divorce as the judge said she's ever seen so if Jeff can anticipate all the things that have arisen in my case I'm sure he can help you. I would recommend Jeff to anyone with a family law issue without hesitation.

"I endorse this lawyer. I have had several contested cases with Jeff, on rather difficult issues. He is an honest attorney, and well respected amongst his peers. He is a skilled litigator and aggressive advocate for his client's, but also able to urge for informal resolutions and settlements when the situation calls for them. Jeff is a high caliber attorney."

  • 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.
