Jordan Faux, Esq. is an attorney at the Faux Law Group. His expertise is in construction and surety law and he does things like fend off bogus claims, help his clients get paid, and try to stop you from signing awful contracts. He went to school back East, but decided to head back West and clerk for Magistrate Judge Robert J. Johnston in the US District Court, District of Nevada. After that, he went to work for his dad and has been in the family business ever since. He likes to spend his spare time with his wife, who is totally out of his league, and two objectively adorable children. In a parallel dimension he is full-time musician that doesn’t just dabble in guitar, bass, piano, ukulele, marimba and accordion.
