Law Office of Jeff D. Hoffman

God Jeff which one is it you keep switching the story every time so I’m done your not highly skilled in this area of practice so your not someone I want representing me

Jeff and Linda saved me from a foreclosure on my property. With Jeff’s help I filed for bankruptcy and stopped the bank from taking my house. I am living on the property with now with a modified loan agreement. Thank you so much!!!

I don’t typically write reviews but I felt compelled to after visiting Mr. Hoffman. I found in this meeting that what I needed was actually understanding of legalities. He patiently walked me through the processes. Being that I am first generation and self-​taught in many things (i.e opening a bank account), I greatly appreciated his overview. He is to the point, clear, honest, and wants his client informed.

We are so happy and so lucky to find Jeff. We recommend him to anybody 100%. Everything was explained to us very well. Jeff did very thorough follow up at the end of the process. We really appreciate his involvement and we are very happy with the outcome!

Good service n help u go over things quick
Worth to talk to them n find out what they can do to help ur case

When I first started the bankruptcy process, I was depressed and feeling overwhelmed. Linda really put me at ease and made me feel like there was hope! She is such a sweet person.
Jeff is an awesome Attorney. He remained professional throughout the entire process and answered questions straight forward and to the point. Very stern… but he helped me realize it was time to let go of certain things that were worthless that I was holding on to.
Jeff also got rid of a EDD judgment that had been haunting me for years!
I thank Jeff so much for all of his help and will always recommend Law Office of Jeff D Hoffman to family and friends.
Thank you Jeff!

Jeff Hoffman is a sterling human being and a professional the likes of which you rarely meet and when you do you say, «ah, I must have good karma». To begin with, his office manager Linda put me at ease immediately by helping me see the big picture and how my finances can be remedied as a matter of utilizing correctly the laws designed to offer relief and a fresh start people in my situation. She had absolute and genuine faith in Jeff’s superpowers and by the end of a most generous free consultation with Jeff, with no questions left unanswered, (except the ones he researched because of my unusual circumstances), I chose to not only hire him as my attorney, I want to vote for him for president!
I went to see Mr Hoffman to untangle a financial knot I found myself in where nothing was without complications others have not been able (or willing) to unravel at all with any degree of certainty. When you talk to him you can see (and hear) all his wheels turning. He doesn’t hold back information and any he doesn’t have, he gets it quickly and calls you right back. His straightforward honesty and desire to really serve your best interests, (which actually may or may not not coincide with his), is so impressive, you can just relax and know you are in good hands.
If you need legal help to get a fresh start with a bankruptcy or debt reduction, save yourself a lot of trouble and see Jeff Hoffman. You probably couldn’t do any better unless your brother or father was your attorney, and in fact that’s kind of what it feels like to work with him as he has already cleared up some important issues for me and it was maybe two weeks ago that I decided to hire him. Thanks Jeff and also Linda. thanks for running such a tight ship!

Before coming to Jeff’s office I checked out other law offices and did some consultations in 3 different places. The minute I got to Jeff’s office and had my consultation, I felt relieved. You can feel his honesty, dedication, concern and his passion to what he does, almost immediately. That is all I needed.
I used the Law office back in November 2011. I have written other reviews for Jeff in other sites but never done it on Unilocal.So here it is.
Jeff’s consultations and service were exceptionally professional, thorough and the entire process from day one, flawless! I just followed exactly as I was told, brought all the papers that I was told to bring, filled up all the forms as needed, reviewed them together, took the on-​line classes… I mean, everything was done accordingly. His assistant Linda is so wonderful, friendly, polite, detail oriented, organized, very comforting and helpful; not only that, she is always there to answer any questions either by phone, email or in person.
Jeff is a very straight forward person, he really listens to you all the way, provides you with critical points that relates to your case and apply them professionally until you are done. Even after you are done, he is always there to answer your questions, address any issues you may have. You can never go wrong with the Law Office of Jeff D Hoffman. Try it and you will be the first one to rave about Jeff and his staff here on Unilocal or anywhere else.

After a recent divorce, that left my finances upside down, I sought legal advice from the law offices of Jeff Hoffman. The free consultation was an hour long, in-​depth –albeit a high level– review of my financial situation to explore what protection I could take. I had not fully considered filing Bankruptcy in the past, but after an hour with Jeff Hoffman — we agreed it was the best course of action for me.
Jeff Hoffman is a clear-​thinking and whip-​smart communicator well versed on the laws of bankruptcy. Perhaps just as important, he and his office staff made me feel that in them I had advocates working on my behalf to resolve the mess and give me a much-​needed fresh start. This was a huge emotional advantage for me as I waded through a process that took about 4 weeks to file. It’s drudgery slugging through your financial records but there is a method to the madness: You begin taking ownership of the process and your future. The required online credit counseling was helpful too. Hoffman’s office is the glue that binds to keep you on track, reminding you of gaps you need to address complete with check off lists.
Linda is the front office wizard who puts all the financial records together with you and she does it with extreme attention to detail, without commentary or judgment — just extremely professional and compassionate. I could not have done it without her.
I was especially pleased to have Jeff represent me by the time we made it to Bankruptcy Court. He made me feel calmer just knowing he was seeing me through the final steps of the process which was concluded.
If you are considering next steps for bankruptcy, foreclosure or loan modifications — and are within a 60 – 90 minute drive of downtown Oakland — go see Jeff. If you’re truly committed to resolving a difficult situation, you’ll find solutions with his law office.

Professional and Personal attention is what best describes Jeff Hoffman. I can truly say that filing for Bankruptcy was an emotional experience for me. Frightening was just one of my many emotions, but Jeff made it easy for me to handle and to accept the embarassment of filing Bankruptcy.
It was just lucky for me to pick among all the various law offices in Oakland — yours.
Thank you Jeff, Linda for my new beginning.
P. S. It has been now a year and 4 months that my bankruptcy has been completed! I had a question and hoped that Jeff would reply even though the case was closed. And to my surprise he replied back to my email so quickly. I cannot emphasize — if anyone is going to file for Bankruptcy you choose Jeff Hoffman Law Office.
My sincere gratitude Jeff you made this journey an easy one!
Wishing you much success!

I recommend a consultation with Jeff Hoffman if you’re thinking about filing for bankruptcy.
He was very straight forward, easy to talk to and very helpful. Veronica and Linda made me feel at ease going through this tough decision. They will help you every step of the way.
Thank You Jeff and crew.
