Real estate and business attorney with over 15 years of real world experience prior to practice of law.

My name is Steve Schreiber, and I have been practicing commercial real estate law for more than 30 years (as either in house counsel or VP of Real Estate) for national tenants (such TGI Fridays restaurants and Cinemark Theaters) as well as various landlords that own and/or operate enclosed malls, power centers, manufacturer outlet centers, neighborhood shopping centers and office buildings.  The advantage of having served on both sides of the negotiation table is that I understand the basic needs and motivations of both landlords and tenants.  And my years of experience have demonstrated that there are real life ramifications to the wording of real estate documents, and you better know what you are agreeing to before you sign them.. I am not a litigating attorney (i.e., I don’t go to court)-I’m a negotiator.  It is my belief that only the attorneys win if you have to resort to litigation.  My specialty is to negotiate clear, firm and fair contracts that are customized to meet the tenant’s operating requirements and don’t need to be litigated.  I also specialize in finding creative solutions to complex problems through relationship building and negotiation.  I truly enjoy the real estate development business and guiding people through the process.

As a law firm we are committed to outstanding client services. It is what sets us apart from other law firms. Our goal is to always exceed our clients' expectations.

I'm a husband, father, unabashed Christian, attorney, retired Air Force Reserve JAG Colonel and musician. At The Jacobson Law Firm, P.C., our motto is "Helping People for Life".  Whether it's planning for your family and your legacy, carrying out those plans, helping you start (and run) a business or just providing counsel for your significant legal decisions, we want you to feel like a part of our family.

I focus on probate and estate planning almost exclusively because I am passionate about helping people navigate and avoid unnecessary grief and hardship. I take great pride in drafting specially tailored Wills, Trusts, and other estate planning documents to protect my clients and their loves ones. These situations are difficult enough without the legal process being made more complicated by poor drafting or failure to plan. It is my mission to protect my client's interests (legal, financial and personal) and hold their hands through the legal process. I base my practice on honesty, good communication, and hard work.. I currently take cases in Bexar County, Guadalupe County and Comal County. I also accept cases in Frio County, Atascosa County, Kendall County, Medina County, Wilson County, Goliad County, Kerr County, Nueces County, and other Texas Counties on a case-by-case basis. I have represented clients who live in Florida, Oregon, Washington, New York, Rhode Island, Minnesota, Illinois, Ohio, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, Colorado, Arizona, and even out of the country (though this always involves a decedent or ward who resided in South Texas). When it comes to hiring an attorney for probate matters, where the decedent lived (not where the client lives) is usually the determining factor.. I am originally from Chicago, Illinois, but have also lived in Ohio, North Carolina, California, and South Dakota. I enjoy spending time with my family, travel and volunteering in the San Antonio community. I decided to make San Antonio my permanent home in 2010 and I do not miss icy roads or below-zero temperatures one bit.. I am on the board of directors for Crime Stoppers of San Antonio and Animal Defense League of Texas. I have always enjoyed hands-on volunteering in my community as well. I plan to expand my efforts to some of the incredible charities benefiting children and their families that serve this part of the state.
