From the fir.st contact to the final Decree Johnathan Voelker was 100% knowledgeable and stayed in contact the entire time. Also what he said it would be it was with no hidden fees. Definately will recommend him and use him again of needed

Posted by anonymous | January 19, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Marriage & Prenuptials

Business/Personal Prenup - made a tough thing bearable and very reasonable.

Very satisfied with the whole experience and i will continue to use Jonathan in the future. We have a decent size family business and i had to do a prenup to isolate our business ownership from my personal assets. This is not a fun conversation to have and jonathan made it short and concise. Also - w...e had another referral to a family attorney in the office of our corporate attorney and they wouldn't discuss anything in the consultation and wanted 3 times what Jonathan charged us for just the retainer.

An excellent Lawyer to have on your side!

Jonathan has been my attorney for 3+ years. During that time, Jonathan has provided more than exceptional services to me and my family. He consistently provides me with valuable information and ensures I am prepared for any upcoming events. His emails are always accurate and clear and his willingness... to answer any questions I have make him an invaluable asset to our family. I would recommend Jonathan to anyone who is looking for an attorney that they can count on and provide you with the professional services you are looking for.

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.
