Samurai or Ronin, either way you want him by your side

Just bloody hire him! Stop your research as I have done it for you. Not only did I do research, but experienced it first hand. When I spoke with him he was realistic. Did not promise anything other then he will fight for me till the very end. He did, and did it with dismissal of my m.d. charge. B...TW, my case resulting in dismissal was not only improbable but possibility of it happening was in .001% range. Yet he figured it out. Do not give up! Appeal if you lost the first round, and stick with Jon! Remember, as Jon says, you have two bits of the apple! Japanese proverb says: Strategy without plan is a daydream. Plan without strategy is a nightmare. Jon comes up with both strategy and plan how to execute it. Simply unbelievable! I think there has to be a third class besides Samurai and Ronin. I would like to call it JON: One that can do what neither Samurai nor Ronin can. Just hire him!

Defense Warrior

I had the unfortunate mishap of getting (wrongly) charged with DUI and refusal in Arlington County. I've never been in this kind of trouble - so after all the reviews I read on Avvo, I gave Jon a shot. He may cost more than other lawyers, but you can't mess around with Johnny Law, and it turns out he... was worth it! Jon will prepare you and prepare himself to take on the case as best as possible. In my case because of this preparation, the charge was amended to reckless and the refusal thrown out. Don't let the judicial system trample you - Jon will be your defense warrior.

Katz: Solid Leagal Professional

I had an urgent legal matter and contacted Mr. Katz for advice. He was prompt in setting a no fee initial consultation. He displayed a high level of knowledge of the areas of law that affect my case and provided advice for pretrial activity on my part that was sound. In the end I did not choose to go... with Mr. Katz, but this was a function more that I have a relationship with another law firm that handled a case for me in the past very successfully than any negatives feelings towards Mr. Katz. As this other firm was able and willing to attend to my legal situation I have chosen them. Check this guy out if you need a lawyer!

Best one you can find

Mr. Katz is definitely the best one you can find for your DUI case. I first got a DWI charge in Virginia, and I was really freaked out. However, Jon helped out and offered lots of solutions not only as a professional expert but also a supportive friend! In the end, my dwi charge in Virginia became re...ckless driving. This result truly saves my career path! FYI: I am from Asia, and Mr. Katz totally understands and respects my culture. He is the one that you can BELIEVE!

Honest Jon

My first impression of Mr Katz in our initial consultation was that he was an ass but someone you want on your side. I thought his fee was a bit extravagant but he promptly refunded most of it when my case got dismissed before trial. Our meeting was a bit contentious but I can tell this guy is a bull...dog. Jon is a honest upstanding guy who doesn't sugarcoat. He put in writing that he will dedicate himself fully to your case if you choose to hire him. Honestly he is a bit of a jerk but I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Thanks for expressing your satisfaction with my services. I take to heart your frank appraisal of my persona, and am happy you feel I am the lawyer to call on when in need for one. I endeavor always to treat my clients right and respectfully -- which does not mean I will be a yes-man -- and for my clients always to know how much I appreciate them and the opportunity to serve them. Be well. Jon
