About
Meet Jacob
Jacob is a native of Florida, growing up in Fort Myers. He attended Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU), spending his time between classes attending every FGCU sporting event the school could offer. After earning degrees in Political Science and Legal Studies from FGCU, Jacob attended Stetson University College of Law and graduated with a concentration in Trial Advocacy and Social Justice.
Upon graduating from law school, Jacob practiced criminal defense as an Assistant Public Defender in Lee County. After handling over a thousand criminal cases, double digit successful trial wins, and zealously defending the Constitutional rights of Southwest Florida, Jacob brought those passionate advocacy skills to family law.
While Jacob is not at work, he enjoys spending time with his family, anxiously cheering on his favorite sports teams, and playing with his black Maine Coon kitty named Toothless.
