Excellent Divorce Attorney

Jonathan Katz is an excellent divorce attorney and I highly recommend him. During the entire process, Jon was there for me from the beginning of the litigation to follow-up questions afterwards. the paperwork was timely filed and motions carefully researched and submitted. Jon was available to a...nswer all of my questions and promptly returned my telephone calls. Jon Katz did an outstanding job representing me!!!!

Great attorney and all around nice guy

Jon took my case that was looking like I had absolutely no shot and turned it into an even playing field. He never mislead or deceived and was always straight forward with me. He talked me through each step so that I was never in the dark about anything. He also has a great staff, friendly and attent...ive. I will/would hire him again. Thanks for all your hard work Jon.

A real good guy- down to earth and reassuring.

Jonathan has helped me many times. One of the most important was when he advised me AGAINST a financial transaction and refused to take money from me since he didn't (in his words) "do anything". I've used him several times and have referred friends, all of whom were happy. He gives great advice and... has great follow through

Truly exceptional service, highly recommend!

Got a traffic ticket in Dutchess County. First one in a long time. So I looked for local traffic attorney and saw Jonathan Katz Law with great views. Susan took my call, she was very patient and provided me with a lot of valuable information. She explained the process and the options available. She ...encouraged me to do more homework first (e.g. calling the town court, checking with insurance company etc.) before deciding whether to use their service. She also followed up with an email, showing me how to retrieve my NYS driving record. She’s professional, responsive and honest. Truly exceptional service, highly recommend!

Excellent results , very pleased !!

I had a wonderful experience working with this law firm. They took care of everything for me, I did not even have to attend court. My 4 point ticket was reduced to a 0 pt violation , which I was very pleased with. Jonathan Katz and his associates worked in a very timely manner and I didn't have to wo...rry or stress about the process at all. I live 2 plus hours from the area where the ticket was received and I was very pleased how minimally I was involved in the process yet, was kept very informed. Liz was very professional , effective, a pleasure to work with and made the process very easy for me. I would highly recommend Jonathan Katz law firm !!
