Profile:

Jeff began his legal career in 2001 as a Lake County State’s Attorney prosecuting Felonies, Misdemeanors, DUI’s and Traffic matters. After spending three years as an Assistant State’s Attorney, he was asked to join a private Lake County law firm where he continued prosecuting as a local village prosecutor for two separate villages in Lake County. During that time, Jeff was able to build and maintain a successful criminal, DUI, and traffic defense practice in addition to the duties he had as a local prosecutor.  From there he expanded his practice to include real estate trasnactions.  In January of 2015, Jeff started a new law practice with a well known solo practitioner.  In July of 2019, he moved on to establish his own law firm now known as the Law Offices of Jeffery J.
