  • Different Client, Same Side of Case

We worked together helping dozens if not hundreds of clinic participants seeking conservatorship for disabled family and friends.

Q. When did you work with this lawyer?
2018- until now. Worked closely through the Conservatorship clinic of the Legal aid society of San Diego

More than being expert on the processes of filing and gaining conservatorship, Jeff sniffed out the underlying issues that could make or break a case and helped people successfully work through those issues.

Q. Please rate this lawyer on the following:

Legal Knowledge: Excellent

I went to Jeff first for any uncommon problem and he always had the right approach.

Legal Analysis: Excellent

Conservatorships require understanding of the petitioner's need to provide care for a disabled person at the same time without stomping needlessly on the disabled persons rights and privileges. Jeff has a good understanding of that balance and advises clients expertly in weighing both of those needs.

Communication Skills: Excellent

He is clear and concise in his analysis and communicates it effectively to non-lawyers.

Ethics and Professionalism: Excellent

Jeff is a retired Military officer, and he adheres to the highest code of ethics he learned from the military.
