Justin Benjamin Aronson

Mr. Aronson and his team were consummate professionals throughout, and were quick to understand the issues at hand and find solutions. He ensured dynamic communication with everyone involved, kept me on task for deadlines, and was able to negotiate a settlement during mediation. Mr. Aronson was a fie...rce advocate, yet understood my preference for a swift resolution. He was very persuasive when negotiating with opposing counsel to disrupt logjams. His team, Amanda and Dave, were involved and collaborative every step of the way. In spite of a number of distractions, he remained focused on the final resolution. I am forever grateful for his expertise and support.

My situation was very hard on me and luckily I found Justin and took a lot of pressure off of me. I asked a lot of questions, sometimes the same ones but he always answered and very quickly. He called when it was convenient for me always too and I didn’t have to make adjustments to my daily schedule.... In the end it all worked out and that is because he really knows what he is doing. Also on the day of our court date, he had me meet as his office and walk over together. Took a lot of stress on me not having to worry about having to find where I needed to go on my own and his calm demeanor allowed me to settle in nicely. Overall, everything ended up how it is suppose to be and although I was spinning when I first met him, I was in a much better place even a month or two before the actual court date because of him doing his job and a very high level. Would definitely recommend him to anyone going through a tough situation and needs an attorney that can take control of it and have your back.

I hired Justin to represent me in my divorce. He was very professional, exceptionally knowledgeable, and also was both candid and compassionate in answering my questions. He never let me be in the dark, and managed my expectations very well. If I ever need law advice again, Justin will be my first ca...ll.

Divorce is difficult, no matter what. Even if you have tried everything to save your marriage and you know divorce is the only solution, it is still heart-wrenching and fraught with emotion. I did not contact Coon & Cole for a divorce consultation, but for asset protection and business concerns. Aft...er reviewing my situation, the two attorneys I met with advised me to speak to Justin. That was not what I wanted to do, but I finally realized that I had to face the harsh reality of my situation. Justin was compassionate and listened patiently as my story unfolded. The fact that Justin also practiced business/construction law was important to me because he had knowledge to handle my “family” situation as well as understand my concerns over my business. There is a reason law school is difficult - many times in this process, straightforward logic is not involved. That’s where the difficulty comes in for me. Justin and Dave were patient and allayed my fears most of the time. But divorce and the court system are things to be feared; they are the unknown. No one goes into divorce knowing all about the process and consequences, but Justin and Dave listened and worked in my best interests and were always straightforward with me, even when they knew I didn’t want to hear it. Even when I thought they didn’t understand me, in the end I realized they heard and understood every word I said. Justin would say “just focus on the next right move.” That was hard for me; I am a planner and don’t like to step forward without knowing the path. There is no path with divorce, there really is no logic. It’s making the “next right move” and waiting on the other side. You can’t predict what will happen, but Justin and Dave were always ready. I thought my case was pretty straightforward, but nothing is cut and dry about legal proceedings, and that can be very daunting. My case was very complex and complicated, even though I did not think so at the beginning. The answer to legal questions is always “it depends.” Justin and Dave understood and worked with all those dependencies to my best advantage. Justin and Dave continually came up with strategies to move my case forward even when the other side kept stalling. They were knowledgeable and were always extremely responsive and respectful (even when I was at my most difficult.) Divorce is sad and difficult, and there really is no “happy ending,” but I think Justin and his team got me as close to that as possible. (I did consult with other attorneys, but I was not interested in the “we’ll rip his throat out” approach. You learn a lot through this process and I would highly recommend Justin and his team.
