Settling an estate,and Making our Wills

Jonathan was an excellent lawyer,when my Aunt passed away we needed a lawyer who was honest,and wouldn't drag it on since we had property to sell. Jonathan was highly recommended to us by a friend. We were very impressed by his service,he was very professional and treated us like we've known him ...for years. He handled everything for us and was in constant contact informing of the status of the estate. We also had him draw up my husbands,myself and our daughters wills. When we did sell my Aunts house he also handled the closing for us. We were very pleased and satisfied with our dealings with Jonathan.

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.

Excellent and Aggressive

Handled a complex contract case for me. Went against my ex-partner who had a big firm defending him and we beat them in trial. Great trial lawyer. Well worth the money.

Was great for us

Saw the last review... That sure isn't the lawyer we got. He handled our auto accident. The insurance company fought us for almost 1 year and only offered $7,500 to settle. We hired Attorney Comitz and he was a pitbull. He got our family $100,000. We owe him a lot as he helped us so much.

Very Trustworthy, Went above and beyond my expectations

Jonathan has handled 2 cases for me. The first was a non-compete agreement with my former employer and currently is handling an auto accident injury case. He has always kept me informed to what was going on with either of my cases. I recieve emails, text messages and phone calls following up on every...thing. I would highly recommend Jonathan to anyone needing representation.

  • 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.
