Mr. Scroggin holds a B.S.B.A. in accounting, a Juris Doctorate and a Master of Laws in Taxation (LL.M.) from the University of Florida. He has taught tax law at the University of Florida Law School and College of Business. He was a CPA with Arthur Andersen's nationwide estate planning group.

In November 2017 Jeff was inducted into the NAEPC Estate Planning Hall of Fame, becoming its 105th inductee. US News & World Report named Jeff as one of the 2018, 2019 and 2020 Best Lawyers in America. He has been rated "AV" (preeminent) by Martindale Hubbell since 1990. He has a 10 out of 10 AVVO ranking and is a Nationally Accredited Estate Planner (Distinguished).

From 2006-2010, Mr. Scroggin served as Founding Editor-in-Chief of the NAEPC Journal of Estate and Tax Planning, one of the largest circulation estate planning journals in the country. Mr. Scroggin was co-editor of Commerce Clearing House's Journal of Practical Estate Planning from 2004 through 2006.

Mr. Scroggin is known for his ability to convert complex technical information into practical, usable forms.

Since 1995 Jeff has practiced out of an 1889 house in the heart of the historic district of Roswell, Georgia ? one of the few areas in Atlanta that was not destroyed during the 1864 Battle for Atlanta. The house contains one of the largest collections of IRS and tax memorabilia in the US. The collection of over 100,000 items was featured in a front-page article in the Wall Street Journal on April 15, 2015 ? a suitable day for such an article.

The firm provides estate planning, probate and post-mortem tax planning services in the metro Atlanta counties, including Fulton, Cobb, Gwinnett, DeKalb, Forsyth, and Cherokee.
