I hired Jon Katz to defend me on a class 1 misdemeanor case. I was caught on a sting operation and the evidence was stacked against me. So, a possible outcome would have been a conviction which would have ruined my relationships, reputation and employment. When I talked to Jon the first time for a fr...ee consultation, he listened to me, explained the law and what the possible outcome would be. He explained that an out-right dismissal may not be possible due to the evidence against me but a plea deal for a different unrelated charge, which does not have the negative stigma associated with the original charge, may be possible. But he also mentioned that he is ready to fight for me to get the best result, but asked me to do some homework such as voluntary community service to strengthen my case. He was very compassionate and mentioned that the crime I was being accused of should not be deemed a crime and is not a crime in many parts of the world. Needless to say, I was very impressed and hired him on the spot. Jon kept in touch throughout the period before my case date and inquired about the progress I made on the homework. Before the case date, Jon talked with me about my case and informed me about what to expect given the judge and prosecutor assigned on that day. On the case date, Jon was not able to get the prosecutor to budge on a plea and proceeded to go to trial. However, the witnessing officer already left the courtroom at this point. The case was continued at the request of the prosecutor. On the next case date, Jon used the fact that he already wanted to go to trial on the first date, to convince the prosecutor to make a deal. In the end Jon was able to negotiate a great plea deal for me with an amened charge and no active jail sentence. I looked up similar plea deals from other cases and found that most of them carried some active jail term. Moreover, the original charge can now be expunged to clear my name from it. In the end, it was a painful ordeal, but Jon helped me to overcome it. I am very grateful for his help to regain my footing after I lost it.

I was very grateful to have Jon Katz as my attorney. He represented me successfully on a DUI and several alcohol related charges that could have put me in jail as a convicted felon, a concern that caused great anxiety. I shouldn't have feared, though. When Jon is in a courtroom, he absolutely owns it... with his confidence and presence of mind. He is, of course, a brilliant, experienced attorney and at the very top of his game... his exceptional reviews are 100% accurate, from my own experience. When you walk into court room and see the row of police officers, the prosecutors and the judge and the indifference of "the system" towards you, you will not regret that you have Jon's strength and power on your side. Fighting on the side of the better angels of our nature; one of the most competent people at their profession I've ever met. Our community is very lucky to have an attorney of this caliber available for hire in our area.

I have been charged with a serious case, I did not know how to find a lawyer. Everyone I told my story, they said you'll for sure go to jail. So finally I found Jon Katz, I hired him. I was not sure if he could win my case but I just waited for the result. Before the court date, he worked as he is my... father or brother, I realized that humanity still exists in this nasty world. Finally the court date reached, we went to court, he was running at the courthouse like he is the boss there. So now it was my case's turn to be judged, WOW! I got no jail no other penalties. Everyone was shocked for this case and result . It was all because of the expertise of Jon Katz, this gentleman with decades of experience. I am very busy in my life, I never waste my time reviewing everyone, but here, I thought it would be humanism to let people that no one is perfect, everyone is charged once, if any of you faced any charge, the only good thing you will have at that time, will be the existence of this lawyer. So benefit his availability. Don't hire lawyers with lack of experience, they will give false promises and grab your money. At the end, you will get nothing but a bad result. Good luck everyone.

I hired Jon based on Research and reviews which were all great. Sometimes he can be tough on but trust me just do his homework and you will not get much results with any other lawyer in the DMV area. He is truly a very hardworking man who genuinely cares and will do his absolute best to get the be...st results. He's a life saver ! If you get in trouble in DMV, stop searching and give this guy a call, you won't regret it. Thanks jon!!
