My name is Jeff Stoltz. As a business attorney, my job is help to you - the freelancer, startup founder, and small business owner - create grow, and manage your business. Attorneys have a reputation for being "no" men and women - you can't do this, that is too risky, don't try such a new and untested concept. That's not me. Whether you're at the formation or exit stage, or anywhere in between, I focus on how we can say yes to your ideas while complying with the law and mitigating risks. I will become intimately familiar with the workings of your business so I can provide you tailored advice and guidance to minimize your exposure while still pursuing your strategic goals.. I chose to open my firm because I love the strategy and collaborative planning that business law entails, and wanted to participate more directly in that process with my clients. I enjoy being the consigliere – the trusted guy behind the business owner. Prior to starting my solo practice, I worked at FINRA, the nation’s largest independent securities regulator. My job was to protect investors by investigating brokerage firms and brokers for violations of the federal securities laws and regulations. I worked closely with firm customers to understand their investments and circumstances, identify concerns or problems with their brokers, and fashion remedies to address those difficulties. I bring this same hands-on problem solving approach to my private practice.  I’ve served as a judicial law clerk at the District of Columbia Superior Court, worked in private practice at a small DC-area firm, and obtained my Master of Laws degree with a concentration in securities law.  Originally from Fort Collins, Colorado, I have called the Washington DC metro area home since 2004.. While I enjoy my job, I also have a life outside of work, which includes playing golf, running (I've completed a handful of marathons), and reading, especially biographies of military and business leaders. Fall Saturday afternoons are usually devoted to watching Notre Dame on the football field (go Irish). Most importantly, I love to spend time with my beautiful wife and two-year old son.

During my eighteen years as an attorney, I have practiced solely in the areas of criminal and family law because I feel it is very important to specialize one’s legal practice. An attorney must have extensive knowledge and experience in their specific areas of practice to do this job well. I remain committed to staying fully apprised of new laws that pertain to criminal and family law, as well as the rules of practice in each specific jurisdiction. I have always been an active litigator. During a normal week, I am in court several times on several different kinds of matters. I am comfortable in the courtroom, but I am equally as comfortable negotiating directly with other attorneys and in settlement conferences. I believe I have an obligation to be truthful with you about the likely outcome of your case if you were take it to trial. If I advise you to attempt to settle your case rather than litigate, but you choose not to follow that advice, I will still be fully prepared to competently try your case before the judge. When it comes to family law, the title “Attorney and Counselor at Law” makes sense. It is impossible for me to evaluate the legalities of your case, and its strengths and weaknesses, without knowing you on a personal level. Thus, I do provide counsel – both personal and legal – because it is necessary to do this job competently. Whether you are going through a divorce or contested custody or support matter, I understand that this is likely a difficult time in your life – just the fact that you made an appointment to see me indicates as such. I strive to make my office warm, inviting and personable because I realize what you are here to discuss is difficult enough – this should not be a place where you feel intimidated. I provide you with a safe and welcoming environment so you feel comfortable in sharing the details of your situation with me, as this is a must for me to be able to provide you with compassionate and zealous legal representation.
