Practice Areas

Employment and Labor 50%

We consult with, advise and represent employees and executives in all facets of their employment. Offer letter / contract negotiations, on-the-job counseling, severance negotiations, non-compete and IP issues, whistleblower retaliation & litigation.

37 years | 5,000 cases

50%
Arbitration 20%

FINRA, JAMS and AAA arbitrations are more common now that most employers require employees to consent to adjudicate employment disputes in confidential arbitration forums. We regularly handle client disputes and look forward to handling litigations.

37 years | 200 cases

20%
Litigation 15%

We negotiate / mediate client matters, and when a fair result cannot be obtained, we litigate cases involving non-competes, trade secrets, bonus and deferred compensation, discrimination and wrongful termination in all courts and arbitration forums.

37 years | 400 cases

15%
Discrimination 10%

We handle discrimination cases asserting gender, national origin, race, skin color, age, religion, familial status, disability, retaliation or sexual orientation. You are protected by City, State and Federal Laws. I was a mediator for the EEOC.

37 years | 500 cases

10%
Expungement 5%

We routinely handle the negotiation of U-5s, and we file FINRA Arbitrations to expunge a negative, defamatory, incomplete or false U-5 filing. The U-5 is a minefield, often branding employees as bad actors, impairing one's re-employment prospects.

Thank you Jonathan!

This might be the first review/rating I have ever left for anything, and Jonathan is well deserved for my first review. I cannot thank him enough for his support. He was so responsive and very quick to reply to all my questions. Even after we decided to not move forward with building a case he was st...ill guiding me through the process and reassured my decision making.

My Trusted Advisor

An incredible mind and top subject matter expert. A quick read and study. Focused on doing the right thing for his clients at all times, regardless of time of day. Built up trust in an instant, was my guiding light at my darkest moment and kept me grounded and focused. No question was a hard ques...tion. I will forever be grateful for Jonathan and his team. This world needs more people like Jonathan...what a wonderful world it will be.

Exceptional counsel

I have worked with Jonathan for years now after decades in the financial industry. He is by far the most skillful, confident labor contract lawyer I have found. I highly recommend him.

Results You Can Trust

Jonathan negotiated a sophisticated deal for me and he was a true professional who fought for me. I would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking an advocate who will fight for them and justice. Total pro.

A lawyer you can trust!

I feel blessed that was referred to Jonathan. He is not only an unbelievable lawyer, but simply just cares and is passionate about helping people. I am so glad I had Jonathan as my advocate. He knows what is right and no one knows how to handle big corporations better than him to get you what you des...erve. Needless to say, all the advice and direction he gave me was on point. I will continue to refer him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
