Homework Pays Off!

Jon is a bulldog. In a judicial system that treats each defendant as a cog in a factory, Jon researches all the inherent biases in the system and advocates zealously and passionately on his client’s behalf. In my case, due to Covid-19, I needed to wait 10 months for proper adjudication. Yet, at the o...utset, Jon advised me to do a long list of homework to help with my case (potential misdemeanors for DUI and reckless driving). I accomplished all of the homework as quickly as possible. At times, it felt as though the homework would not provide me with the outcome that I wanted - given how impersonal the court experience had been. Nonetheless, when the day came, Jon meticulously went through all of the homework, presented it in a holistic and systematic way, and negotiated an excellent outcome on my behalf (dropped charge; substantial charge/penalty reduction on the other). The judge openly noted how impressive the homework was, and he went further noting that my counsel was outstanding. I couldn’t agree more. At times, Jon can come off brusquely or hurried, but he is always on his game when the day in court arrives. And that bulldog approach is precisely what makes him effective. Thank you, Jon, for a terrific outcome!

Thank you for taking the time to post your review. Thanks for pointing out that I was effective, meticulous in communicating with you, and always on my game on the court day. As to any pre-court date experience with me, clients will always have my undivided attention through phone and in-person meetings that usually can be scheduled for the same or next business day, and through my prompt response to emails and texts. Thank you for pursuing my recommended self improvement path, which, as you note, paid off with the judge.

Great Support

Outstanding support in representing me on a DUI charge. Very thorough in reviewing the details and mounting a strong defense based on the facts and circumstances of the case. Extremely knowledgeable and vastly experienced. All DUI charges dropped in reaching a favorable outcome. Strong representation... makes a difference. Jon is a difference maker!

Ha.G

The Fearless Lawyer in front of the court. Amazing Lawyer, Jon has handled my case carefully and made all the necessary legal steps to negotiate my case with the Prosecutor. Contacted the complaint professionally and convinced to amicably settle the case. Gave me all the important staff that I need ...to do before he started dealing with the complaint and the prosecutor. Fearless Lawyer in front of the court. Respected by both the Judges and the prosecutors.

Thank you for taking the time to post your review. When a case is fully prepared for trial, it can be in a more favorable settlement posture. When the opposite is done, disaster can result. Thank you again for the honor of defending you.

Hardest working lawyer you will find

Jon is a great lawyer and goes the extra mile for his clients. I was very impressed with his knowledge in law regarding my case. I have worked around attorneys for the past 5 years and Jon was highly recommended to me by another attorney who is a personal friend. Jon not only knows the law inside and... out, but also the courts personnel which is very helpful in determining your best outcome. He also gives the client opportunities to make choices based on his prior engagements with the courts citing case law and other attorneys experiences. He is also well respected by the other local attorneys, I can’t say enough good things about him. If you need an attorney in the surrounding area he has a vast network of experts and colleagues. He was worth every penny, even if you have bad luck and go up against a lean and unpersuasive judge. The courts are a gamble and I don’t gamble, narrow down the odds with Jon on your side.
