After being called to the Bar, Jeremiah worked as a family law lawyer at a mid-sized Ottawa firm and its satellite office in Renfrew for several years.

Jeremiah is open to working toward amicable resolution when possible but is also more than happy to litigate, including bringing matters to trial.

Prior to law school, Jeremiah was a social worker at the Canadian Mental Health Association in Ottawa, where he also assisted individuals and families. Outside of law, Jeremiah enjoys spending time with his wife and children. He is also an avid woodworker. Most recently, he built a walnut dining room table to accommodate his growing family.
