Jeremy really enjoyed going with his Grandpa on airplane rides where they flew over Catalina Island and Disneyland. Jeremy always enjoyed reading as a child and has never stopped reading.

It's no wonder Jeremy went into the legal field.

Jeremy is currently a judge and attorney focusing in the areas of business law, real estate law, estate planning, asset protection, and contracts law. He has been an attorney and consultant to business owners helping companies and individuals avoid many legal pitfalls. Jeremy enjoys helping business owners protect and preserve their personal assets from lawsuits and, at the same time, improve the owner's business operations ensuring that the business is legally compliant and that the owner's contracts and forms are adequately protecting the business owner's interests.
