Great Legal Advice.

My family has worked with Jonathan R. Mehl, Esq. for several real estate transactions including purchasing property, leasing property, and tenant-landlord relations for over the past six years. Jonathan has provided us with excellent legal advice in all of these areas. It is a pleasure to work with ...his office. Everyone is always extremely professional and return calls and emails promptly. Additionally, the quality of work that Jonathan does enables transactions and other business to be done in a timely and efficient manner. Our family would highly recommend Jonathan to anyone seeking the services of a real estate attorney.

Love Jonathan

I hired Jonathan to handle a dispute I was having with my landlord. He intelligently and aggressively settled the issue. Since then I have continued to use Jonathan without hesitation. I can't say that for most Attorneys I've use over the years.

They dont make them like Mehl anymore

Over the last 12 years my family and I have used Jonathan Mehl's law firm for numerous real estate transactions, such as closings, evictions etc. I have tried other lawyers but none compare to the prompt and courteous service given by Mehl. His team stays on top of my files as if they owned the prope...rties themselves. I have recommended many people towards him and every last one was as satisfied as I was.

Good advice in a jiffy!

We were referred to Mr. Mehl by another NJ attorney whom we'd used for the closing of our Newark house, however this other attorney does not specialize in tenant/landlord issues. In a phone call (later repeated over e-mail), Mr. Mehl took some time to advise us as the best way to proceed. We would de...finitely hire him in the future should we need someone.

Practical, Affordable, Personable, not you're average lawyer

Jonathan is a no nonsense type of lawyer. He takes the time to ensure his clients fully understand everything and avoids the games which give lawyers a bad reputation. I have used Jonathan on several closings, and a number of landlord tenant issues and he is great! No surprises on the bill and his... rates are more than fair. If I ever have a question, he always has a minute for basic legal advise. HIs staff is knowledgable and prompt and pays attention to detail.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I've known Jonathan Mehl as long as I've been practicing law. We linked up in Landlord/Tenant Court and through fellow attorneys in our respective networks. Since then, I've worked with Jonathan personally on countless amounts of cases, side-by-side. Jonathan is the consummate professional. He is well versed in various areas of the law. He is ethical and approaches each matter with care and courtesy. He is a zealous advocate for his client's rights, but does not sacrifice his dignity, respect, and responsibility as an officer of the Court, while representing his Clients. I'd highly recommend and endorse Jonathan Mehl, Esq. for all matters within his practice areas."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. I have been fortunate enough to work with Jonathan Mehl and his team for many, many years. In New Jersey there are countless attorneys to choose from. However, he is my "go to attorney" for any commercial or residential tenancy matters and I would never consider another. His experience, ethics, and zealousness cannot be matched. I, unequivocally, recommend him and his firm."
