Jeffrey Curtis Fritz

Jeff Fritz came highly recommended by several trusted friends and my CPA who said this attorney is one of the "strongest" attorney's in San Diego. I was impressed with his no frills office and felt confident this attorney would be able to handle specific discovery requests my former attorney failed t...o carry out. I gave this attorney a hefty retainer fee of $7,500 and paid him $395 of borrowed money to conduct formal discovery beginning with my husband's employer. He was hired to amend a defective employment subpoena, my prior attorney tainted by assigning herself as the Deposition Officer. He refused to amend the subpoena or even reissue a new subpoena which is most concerning to the client. The husband was a high income earner, officer and director a major construction company here in San Diego. The client was left with employment documents that were never verified with a signed affidavit, rendering the limited production illigitimate and defective. Then Mr. Fritz proceeds to conduct discovery that was built around tainted, defective discovery that was never verified. All the discovery Mr. Fritz executed is useless, non-verifiable and illigitimate, leaving me with no future recourse for perjury charges against the employer or the husband. The attorney was asked to subpoena another business affiliation of my husband's but he totally ignored all verbal and written requests. He subpoenaed banks that were never requested to be subpoenaed and failed to subpoena the banks asked in writting to be subpoenaed. The photocopier service Mr. Fritz used said the attorney failed to provide the husband's SSN or date of birth, a necessary requirement when you subpoena bank or brokerage account records. In her years of doing business as a Certified Photocopier, she has never had an attorney refuse to provide this required information. It appears the attorney's tactics were meant to suppress evidence from his client, the court and the tax authorities. When Mr. Fritz Deposed the husband, he failed to ask him where he worked, the addresses of his employers, if he was a shareholder, of had any off-shore affiliations or accounts, among other crucial questions you would ask if the husband was an officer/director of a corporation. Jeff Fritz sent out several Deposition requests to the husband's payroll supervisor and allowed the person to ignore every request. He permitted the husband's attorney to respond to Interrogatories with "it's not in my possession" and only answered 9 out of 67 questions, a clear bias in his representation. The attorney refused to work with a private investigator I hired to look into the husband's finances he concealed from the marriage.The former special agent for the F.B.I. said he only works alongside the attorney, due to ethics and confidentiality. Jeff Fritz rejected my request to subpoena the husband's CPA, a clear violation of my rights to the information and the attorney's responsibility in obtaining the information material to the case. The list goes on and on with what this attorney failed to do. The CPA and my friends who recommended the attorney are humiliated and embarassed over what happened and I am filling a complaint with the State Bar Bar. Mr .Fritz's actions have caused Red Flags with the tax authorities and most concerning is why he refused to subpoena several corporations confirmed by the department of corporations, as ligitimate.
