The JLF Firm – Accident Attorneys

Jeff Fayngor, Esq.

As the founder of the JLF Firm, Mr. Fayngor always knew that he wanted to fight for the rights of injured victims. People who were hurt through the negligence of others, only to be later told they were not hurt enough or their life was not valuable enough to warrant fair compensation. During his time at Whittier Law School, Mr. Fayngor worked at multiple personal injury based law firms, honing his skill and advocating on behalf of injured clients. This provided him with a wide range of experience and strategies that he draws from daily to help maximize his clients’ recoveries.

Following his third year of law school, Mr. Fayngor began working as a Law Clerk for one of Orange County’s most respected law firms. As a result of his unwavering work ethic and tenacity, soon after passing the California bar, he was hired as a full-time attorney. In addition to his professional achievements, Mr. Fayngor has received numerous educational accolades. Mr. Fayngor received CALI awards for the highest grade in Evidence and Criminal procedure while also completing law school an entire semester early. He took the bar exam before any of his classmates and he was admitted to the California bar even before he walked at his law school graduation.

Currently, Mr. Fayngor is an active member of the Orange County Trial Lawyers Association, Orange County Bar Association, and the Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles.
