Clients appreciate the creativity, skill, and good humor that Jeff Markowitz brings to every aspect of his diverse litigation practice. Whether you need someone to take your case all the way from beginning to end—or just to step in on appeal (to fix what went wrong, or to defend what went right)—Jeff is your litigator.
Jeff’s first love (in litigation, that is) is appeals. He co-chairs his firm’s appellate practice group, and feels right at home arguing to appellate courts. That is because he spent more than two years clerking for an appellate judge, and has since repeatedly appeared (and won) on appeal. And Jeff’s clients see firsthand how he leverages that skill and experience—along with his relentless creativity—to make things (or keep things) right on appeal.
When not on appeal, Jeff passionately fights for the clients of his diverse litigation practice to make sure right decisions are reached in the first place (without needing an appeal). That practice includes business disputes, employment matters, products liability, and class-action defense. One core belief that drives him is the maxim, “Justice delayed is justice denied.” That is why he fights hard not just to secure justice for his clients, but to do so as early as possible. And he’s good at it.
Outside of the office, Jeff is an avid strategy-game player with his wife. They live in the Twin Cities with their newly adopted (incredibly sweet) toddler.
