Operating out of Chula Vista, his firm, the Law Office of Leif Kleven, serves clients throughout San Diego and Southern California. By maintaining a focused practice, Mr. Kleven ensures that every client receives his personal attention.

Mr. Kleven's legal career began with defending individuals facing criminal charges in federal courts, including the Southern and Central Districts of California, as well as in the San Diego County Superior Court. This experience provided him with valuable courtroom skills and insights that many attorneys may lack.
