"Jeff and I worked closely for over eight years on both domestic and international matters. Although when we met Jeff did not have significant experience in the Human Resources arena, he picked up things very quickly to where I valued his insight and input over the legally focused HR attorneys I had dealt with in the past. This was because Jeff looked at things from both a legal and business standpoint. He had the ability to keep both areas in perspective as we faced potential legal situations. Although I have moved on to a new endeavor, I keep in contact with Jeff in order to continue to pick his brain from the legal and business perspective. He maintains a high level of integrity and trust, common sense, humor, and tenacity" -Vice President-Human Resources of a Multinational Company

"Jeff and I worked closely together for a Fortune 500 company with a global leadership position in its own industry. Jeff was instrumental in the successful completion of the establishment of a relatively complex manufacturing and sales Joint-Venture entity with a large provincial government company in China, the structure of which also included a Technology Licensing Agreement and a Trademark Licensing Agreement. Jeff contributed substantially in the negotiation and set-up phases. The Joint-Venture entity was later on awarded as one of the best performing FIE JV's in Guangdong Province. This award is a true reflection of Jeff's professionalism, his pertinence to details, and his solid knowledge of structuring a FIE business in China. In addition, Jeff also helped orchestrate the successful signing of the then largest Strategic Global Alliance Partnership within the industry between our company and our largest global competitor in China. The Partnership was a global strategic supply-chain agreement that maximized the potential synergy between two of the largest companies within the industry. Throughout the 6 years that I worked with Jeff in China and Asia, I found him a man with a strong sense of responsibility, a quick learner with the ability to grasp and digest new and exotic information quickly, a person who stands firmly by his principles and at the same time a very personable individual with good business acumen and people skill. I enjoyed working with Jeff and have no reservation in recommending him to others." -Managing Director - China, and Strategic Global Sourcing Director - Asia, of a Fortune 500 company and a global leading company within its industry.
