Attorney
Jeffrey H. Jordan
Before starting his own solo practice in San Leandro, Jeff worked for a large international law firm in New York City where his practice focused on internal and regulatory investigations, electronic discovery, complex financial transactions, securities law, and related litigation. Before that, he clerked for Chief District Judge Thomas K. Moore in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Jeff is a product of San Leandro’s excellent schools. He attended Broadmoor Nursery School (back when it abutted the San Leandro Creek), Washington Elementary School, Bancroft Junior High School, and San Leandro High School, all in San Leandro where he currently resides. He stayed close to home for university too, obtaining his BA from UC Berkeley and JD from Stanford Law School. He also holds an MA in international relations from the Johns Hopkins School of International Relations in Washington DC, for which he also spent a year studying in Bologna, Italy.
In his spare time, Jeff enjoys caring for feral cats, travel (especially Italy, Australia, and New Zealand), languages (especially Italian), board games, and craft beer (especially Belgian). He has traveled to over 70 countries and is looking forward to the next 70.

While Jeff still mourns the loss of his companion Jacques (pictured below), he has discovered a new passion caring for (and obtaining neutering for) his neighborhood feral cat colony, and has adopted two of the cats as his own.
