Highly Recommend for any child support or custody issues!!!!

Jeff helped me in dealing with a custody issue last year & he was wonderful. When I needed help dealing with a new child support issue I was facing, I contacted him right away. He is very knowledgeable & comfortable to speak with. He was there for me when the court date came and kept me ex husband fr...om terminating my child support early. I am forever grateful.

5 Star Attorney

I had a consultation with Jeff regarding my engagement with my future wife. He not only went over my assets with me, but he also helped me form a solid game plan regarding my future and helped me weigh the options of a prenup. Jeff is sharp as a tack and wasreally easy to talk to.

Excellent Attorney

Jeff helped me with my divorce, child custody and support as well as modifying the child support years later. I am so appreciative for all his knowledge and expertise.

Responsive, Caring lawyer

I seeked Jeff to represent me in my case for my son's custody. Jeff and Bekki were able to write an extremely powerful response letter to my ex's OSC within the very short time frame we had to work with. Jeff is a great listener to all the details, and be able to pick out exactly what is needed and r...elevant. He is very responsive, responding to all inquiries/calls/emails. I must say, he cared more about what was in my child's best interest than my child's father does. Caring, honest, empathetic, responsive, knowledgeable - all traits which are hard to find in any lawyer. I have and would recommend Jeffery to anyone. -

Wonderful Family Law Lawyer in Costa Mesa

Jeff represented me in a very complicated divorce, which included a nasty custody battle. He was extremely professional during the entire case and was very patient with me in answering all my questions. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case.
