From Donna

Jonathan & Jeremy are always there to consult with. They will answer emails promptly and keep you informed of what the status of your case is. Jeremy is very attentive and a hard working Attorney that will be sure all the legal matters are done in a timely manner. Jonathan is a great negotiator and w...ill fight to get you the most compensation. The insurance company offered nothing and Jonathan was there to make them pay. Both Attorneys are also very good communicators and are also compassionate when they need to be. I would hire them again if needed. The office staff is also there for you regarding appointments, correspondence, email, etc. Just need to mention Kariana, she is awesome!

You Need Atty. Comitz

Proud to say I've known Jon for quite some time, long before ever needing his services as an attorney....I could not have been more pleased with the overall professionalism and the focus and determination with which he handled our case. I felt as though he stayed truthful, and kept us very well info...rmed throughout the process, in fact I would say he went out if his way to make sure we were up to date on the most current proceedings. Jon's confidence and determination was infectious, and allowed us, a first time client, to maintain a positive outlook through the process. Fortunately for us that commitment never waivered and it goes without saying, our outcome was favorable. We couldn't have been more appreciative of his services and furthermore, the way he handled the process. I've always admired Jon's commitment to those that are close to him, family and friends first, as well as fellow colleagues and professionals, along with his passions outside of those things.....This is what makes him a good man, and an excellent attorney!

An exceptional Lawyer.........!

I am a business owner and have gone through some difficult challenges over the past several years. These challenges included employee theft, breach of contract, bad faith insurance claims, enforcement of management contracts, etc.... For good or bad, I have been in a position to have dealt with man...y lawyers over the past 15 years in the businesses I have managed, etc. About three years ago, I met Attorney Comitz at a business function and was in the process of looking for a change of legal representation. I can tell you, without hesitation, that I have never dealt with a more efficient, tactful, and effective lawyer than Attorney Jonathon Comitz. He has handled every one of the cases my businesses have thrown at him, and he has managed it with dignity, efficiency, and tact. It Is never anyone's wish to have to deal with legal proceedings, but if you are forced into that circumstance, I can't give a more honest and endorsing recommendation than dealing with Attoney Jonathon Comitz. He has helped me and the businesses I manage beyond measure. I feel lucky to have him represent me in every capacity.

Great lawyer

My father was in a bad motorcycle accident that wasn't his fault. When all was said and done he had 900k in hospital bills. That's when I callsd Jonathan. He was amazing with my parents keeping them up to date and making them feel comfortable. He fought for them and in the end they won there case. ... He's no nonsense and the lawyer that you want behind you.
