Great Attorney

Jonathan represented me in a FINRA arbitration and was extremely aggressive, honest and hardworking. In the end, we were very pleased with the settlement he obtained for our family and were happy we chose him as our attorney.

Jonathan Kurta / Performance

I met Jonathan Kurta about 8 weeks ago and would recommend him to anyone in need of a good attorney. I found him to be friendly, extremely knowledgeable and professional. He showed compassion for our situation and was passionate in what he decided would be the best course of action. I felt complet...ely comfortable working with him, which is something I felt almost instantly after meeting him. Tom & Josephine

Jonathan Kurta and his partner, Marc Fitapelli, represented us very well.

We recommend Jonathan Kurta and Marc Fitapelli with total confidence. Jonathan is extremely knowledgeable, honest, dedicated, energetic and professional. We hired Jonathan 18 months ago. We had a fantastic outcome. Jonathan thoroughly did his background research work for our case. His knowledge ...and comprehension of the facts provided us with a critical platform in presenting our case to the mediator. The specific detailed work they presented to the Mediator was outstanding and the constant pressure applied to the opposing party made for a very favorable settlement in our favor. He is just plain good and well deserves all the accolades we can present in this great review of our total satisfaction in Jonathan and Marc.. Finally, we felt well represented and the fees fair and balanced. They make a wonderful team in presenting the facts and negotiating the the final settlement. To make our point, they are continuing to represent us in other cases of Security violations and fraud. We admire them a lot.

Jonathan Aaron Kurta Perfomance Review

Very personable and supportive. Provides good common sense advice and has good insight into human nature. Felt very satisfied with his professional knowledge and service.

Posted by Bruce | June 11, 2014 | Mediation

Jon and his partner, Marc, did what they said they would do, and brought our case to a successful conclusion.

My family and I hired Jon and his partner, Marc Fitapelli, in early 2012 mainly to try to collect from negligent auditors who allowed a fraudulent hedge fund to dupe its investors. The last thing we wanted was to throw good money after bad, so I looked for competent attorneys who would take the case ...on contingency. The case settled about 18 months later. Marc & Jon did what they said they were going to do: They became familiar with the facts (and there was a lot of paperwork); they brought all relevant causes of action against all possible parties; they successfully opposed defendants' various motions to dismiss; and they hung tough in mediation in order to get a reasonable settlement. And all along the way they acted professionally and kept me informed.

  • 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.
