About Jerry
Biography
With over a decade of experience in the collections industry, I serve as the principal attorney for the Jen Law Firm, APC, a business litigation law firm assisting entrepreneurs and small businesses throughout California.
As a business litigator, I work closely with local and regional businesses to help resolve their disputes. My significant litigation and investigative experience, coupled with my years of work in the collections industry, helps me protect businesses both on the front end and the back end.
My clients appreciate that I build a personal relationship with them and am there to help guide them through challenging issues. They know that I'll find the best approach to a problem, and that I enjoy working out the solution. They are confident that I can protect their business.
My areas of expertise include:
• Debt collection/judgment enforcement
• Investigative techniques related to debt collection
• Business entity formation
• Business agreements and contracts
• Business and commercial litigation
I love the process of tackling unique challenges and using my expertise to make my clients’ lives better. I am rewarded by the peace of mind that I give my clients and the relief that their issues have been resolved.
Outside of work, I volunteer my legal expertise for my community. I have volunteered for immigration legal clinics, worker’s rights clinics, and pro bono clinics. I also served as a volunteer mediator in the Los Angeles County Superior Court’s CRASH Mediation Program.
