In Jeff’s Own WordsI became a lawyer to pursue justice for my clients. We founded Springer and Steinberg so when someone is injured or needs the scales of justice to be balanced in their favor we use our considerable experience to get them the results they deserve. Over the years I’ve litigated hundreds of cases in the Denver area and throughout the country. I’m proud of what I accomplish for my clients and the tens of millions of dollars that I have recovered on their behalf.
