JORDAN LANE CEAUSU
Founding & Principal Attorney

Curious how to say my last name? It’s pronounced

“Chow-oo-shoe”

Meet Jordan, a California attorney and Orange County native with a multifaceted expertise that extends across estate planning, probate, trust administration, and real estate. She proudly shares that her last name is Romanian — after marrying a first-generation American whose family immigrated from Romania — a reflection of her deep appreciation for family roots and legacy.  

 

Drawing wisdom and insight from a legal heritage passed down from both her attorney parents, Jordan possesses a remarkable depth of experience that belies her age. Her passion for helping families and individuals is palpable, driven by a childhood steeped in discussions of estate planning with her father and employment law with her mother.  This connection to the legal world runs in her DNA, motivating her to bring exceptional dedication to her clients' needs. 

 

Known for her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering focus, Jordan has consistently achieved high honors in her academic pursuits, excelling not only in business school but also in law school. With a hands-on approach that resonates deeply with her clients, Jordan has built a reputation for being not just an attorney, but a partner in navigating legal complexities.  

 

Jordan's proficiency extends beyond the drafting desk as well, encompassing a wealth of experience in litigation of probates and trusts. This unique insight allows her to identify potential issues and proactively prevent court involvement, safeguarding her clients' interests and assets. 

 

Beyond her professional pursuits, Jordan's perspective is enriched by her husband, a firefighter paramedic, whose work highlights the preciousness of life. This perspective infuses her practice with empathy and understanding, further strengthening her commitment to crafting effective legal solutions. 

 

Outside of her legal endeavors, Jordan cherishes spending time with her husband, family, and friends, and taking walks on the beach.  

 

Jordan is more than an attorney; she is a compassionate advocate, a perceptive strategist, and a dedicated partner who brings both modern expertise and timeless values to her clients' legal journeys.
