Jeff returned to private practice where he has spent 20 years dedicated to representing and advising insurance companies on complex coverage issues and claims of bad faith.
Jeff enjoys spending time with his wife and two very active boys in sunny Southern California.

In 2021, a window supplier sued for coverage under an OCIP policy to recover the $2.5 million it paid to replace more than 2,000 windows at a condo tower in San Diego, California. The underlying window claims concerned dripping sealant, which created visual obstructions. It was undisputed that the sealant only damaged the windows and that faulty installation did not cause the sealant to drip. The court granted summary judgment in favor of the insurer, finding no coverage under the OCIP policy.
