Jeff Crandall is a business, real estate and estate planning attorney with over 25 years of experience in business, real estate, tax, estate planning, and elder law matters. He has also successfully litigated complex consumer class action cases resulting in multi-million dollar settlements. He is licensed in Idaho, Washington and California, and has been practicing in the Coeur d'Alene, Idaho area for over 16 years. Prior to relocating to Idaho, Jeff was a partner at Best, Best & Krieger, a prestigious, 150-plus attorney firm in Southern California, specializing in business mergers and acquisitions and general corporate representation. He moved to the Coeur d'Alene area in 1994 to find a better environment in which to raise his children.

He merged his practice with Bruce Owens in 2006 to form Owens & Crandall, and currently serves as the managing partner. By focusing on specialized business, tax and estate planning matters, he can remain on the cutting edge and provide "large-firm" expertise and experience to his clients.

As an entrepreneur and business owner himself, and as the former general counsel for a publicly-held, NASDAQ-traded company, he is familiar with the challenges facing today's business owner, giving him a unique perspective and approach to the practice of law. Jeff is active in professional and community organizations, serving on several non-profit boards, including Idaho Drug Free Youth, the Coeur d'Alene Summer Theater and the Coeur d'Alene Symphony. Jeff, his wife, Julie, and their six children are very active in their church, serving in a variety of volunteer positions, and have been active in local community activities, including music, theater and sports. Jeff is an active outdoor enthusiast who loves skiing, water sports, hunting, fishing, backpacking, golf, cycling and swimming. He has completed numerous marathons and triathlons and still works out regularly to counter the effects of his "love" of good food. Above all, he enjoys the time he can spend with his children and grandchildren.
