Our Story

A Commitment Built Through Service

How a career built on service became a mission to protect families

Before founding Filippi Law Firm, Jim Filippi spent years serving his community as a California police officer. Law enforcement shaped him in profound ways — it taught him how to connect with people, support them in difficult moments, and step in when someone needed help the most.

But one night changed everything.

While working a narcotics detail, Jim conducted a routine stop that suddenly turned dangerous. A suspect trapped him in the vehicle and accelerated, dragging him down the street. Though the physical injuries eventually healed, the experience brought an abrupt end to the law enforcement career he had always dreamed of — and left him searching for the next chapter of his life.

That new chapter revealed itself in an unexpected place: estate planning.

As Jim explored what came next, he realized that helping families prepare for the future allowed him to continue his lifelong mission of service. He discovered that estate planning wasn’t just legal work — it was a responsibility rooted in compassion, trust, and human connection. People weren’t just signing documents; they were entrusting him with the protection of everything they cared about.

As the firm grew, it became clear that families and local property owners needed support in more than just estate planning. Clients who trusted Jim with their family’s legacy also turned to him for help with real estate matters, property disputes, and the legal needs of their small businesses. These were natural extensions of the same mission: protecting what people work so hard to build.

Today, Filippi Law Firm handles estate law, real estate law, and business law, but the heart of the firm remains unchanged. Clients aren’t treated like transactions. They’re treated like family. Their concerns, fears, and goals matter. Our responsibility is to guide them with clarity, compassion, and confidence; the same values Jim carried from his years of service into every conversation, every case, and every plan we create.
