These comments were made by fellow attorneys during the annual nomination process.

“Jeff is very effective and well-respected family law practitioner. His clients give him rave reviews.”

“I was opposing counsel with attorney Soilson in a high conflict divorce case involving significant issues of child custody. I found him to be a formidable opponent while remaining professional, fair and appropriate. He is smart and a good oral and written advocate. I would recommend him to represent a party in any type of divorce case and to serve as a neutral, either as a mediator or parenting coordinator. I would not hesitate to refer a personal friend or family member to Attorney Soilson.”

“Jeff is the definition of a zealous advocate.”

“Jeff is a terrific divorce and probate attorney, able to resolve conflicts when possible or litigate zealously when necessary. Most importantly, Jeff has the experience to advise clients regarding the likely result in often complex cases, cutting through emotional and legal issues to achieve the best result.”
