This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I DO NOT reccomend this lawyer.

I strongly recommend seeking another attorney. Mrr. Cottell made offers to the defendant without my knowledge, accepted money from the defendant in the form of a check without my consent, and that he was not contracted to receive. He is not honest, and only continued my case and withdrew and chang...ed motions to benefit defendant for over a year, then withdrew as my attorney! I have not been able to get my file from him to this day. After he withdrew as my attorney, he contacted opposing counsel regarding defendant to continue to pay him. Clearly did not have my best interests but his own.

This client has serious mental issues and I withdrew representing her when she started accusing me of malfeasence. All the remarks in this review she made against her prior attorney when she first came to my office. Just to keep the record straight, she came to my office and picked up her file but refused to sign a receipt for my records and then accused me of not turning it over. She also refused to pay for my services.

Excellent Lawyer

Jeff is an excellent AND very knowledgeable lawyer. He follows through and you feel very well represented with him by you side. We would recommend Jeff Cottrell to anyone who needs a good lawyer who is honest and fair.

Great attorney, reliable, knowlegeable

My wife and I retained Jeff Cottrell, Esq. as our attorney, and although he is very busy with other clients and cases, he has been extremely helpful and has followed through with our wishes in a timely manner. I would recommend him to any and all that need an 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.
