When it comes to working with you, Jeff naturally goes the extra mile. Once, on a Saturday, he drove many miles to the home of a terminally-ill client to help her make changes to her estate plan to protect some prized real estate. The client passed away a few days later, with her wishes set in place.
Another time, Jeff uncovered a $15,000 life insurance policy that a departed client’s family didn’t know existed. It happens more than you know.

Jeff met his wife on a blind date on a train to Salem, MA on Friday the 13th. Some say she bewitched him. They have two children and two rescue dogs. He’s active in the community and with his family as a Cub Scout Den Leader and a coach for Avon Little League.
