Jeff is a civil litigator with a wealth of experience in court. Over more than a decade he has helped hundreds of clients navigate the legal system.
After attending law school at the University of Western Ontario Jeff articled at a national law firm in Vancouver. In the course of his career Jeff has acted as senior Counsel for over a dozen trials. He achieved a national-level award for his skills in oral advocacy.
In 2022, he moved back to Ontario. He is enjoying applying his trial experience to the diversity of a broad practice at Powell Litigation.
Jeff’s calm and focused approach may have origins in his 19 years of service in the Canadian Army Reserve. He retired as a Major, having commanded groups of hundreds of soldiers. He graduated Command and General Staff College, the military’s MBA equivalent. In this capacity he has worked in national level Cyber defence capability planning and provincial level Disaster response planning.
When not advocating for clients, Jeff enjoys carpentry, music and spending time with his beloved wife and daughter.
