About Jeffery
Jeffery Cleghorn studied political science at North Georgia College & State University, part of the University System of Georgia, before heading to George Washington University's Mount Vernon campus for law school. He earned his J.D. in 1999 and went on to pursue licensure in multiple jurisdictions. His academic path combined a southern undergraduate education with legal training in the nation's capital.
After law school, Cleghorn secured admission to practice in both the District of Columbia and Georgia. Over the years he has built a professional life that bridges those two legal communities. He is a member of the District of Columbia Bar Association and maintains ties to Georgia's legal organizations. That dual admission informs the geographic reach of his work and the communities in which he remains active.
Outside client files, Cleghorn has been active in bar and professional organizations. He holds memberships in the Atlanta Bar Association, the Georgia Bar Association, the Lawyers Club of Atlanta, and the Collaborative Law Institute of Georgia. He serves on the board of the Stonewall Bar Association of Georgia, where he has participated in governance and programming decisions. He also serves on the board of the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network (SLDN), and he is a member of the Military Officers Association of America. These roles reflect an interest in organizational leadership and community institutions.
Colleagues describe Cleghorn as practical and steady in professional settings. He brings classroom training from George Washington University into practice and draws on local connections from his Georgia education. His mix of memberships suggests engagement with both general bar activities and groups focused on particular issues, including collaborative law and service-member legal concerns.
