Beyond Expectations

I was stopped for speeding 21mph over the limit in Northern Virginia, which is Class 1 Misdemeanor if convicted. Jon fought hard to reduce my charges to a choice between improper driving (19mph over limit + fine + points) or speeding 9mph over limit + higher fine + points. He then suggested that I ...accept the speeding charge (which I did), clearly pointed out that the points would not carry over to my Maryland driving record, and he was right! Thank you, Jon!

Criminal Justice

Criminal Justice is more than a title, it is a person. John Katz is a warrior that will fight for you when it matters most and the stakes are high. As a military service member, I was wrongly accused of a crime and arrested. I had a lot on the line - my reputation, security clearance, and career beca...use if we lost it was bye-bye for me. I saw John's interview on FoX News with Bill O'Reilly that was posted on his website and saw the passion he had to protect and fight for his client's rights. I immediately knew he was a warrior that could get me justice. John was a true pro to work with that quickly developed a plan for us to compete and win in court. He was proactive and user friendly as he returned my calls and took the time to explain was was going on with the case. The bottomline - we won! John is DA MAN and will work hard to get you "Justice". Call him, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Without hesitation...

Jon Katz has an excellent combination of personal and professional characteristics, which I found invaluable given my complete inexperience with legal defense. Personally, Mr. Katz is open-minded, amiable, direct, communicative, and focussed. These characteristics underpin his professionalism. He ...has a keen understanding and knowledge of law; he is wise strategist; and he is a highly-skilled tactician. All of these attributes combined with a client's serious engagement with the legal process and its requirements help Mr. Katz build an effective defense for the best possible outcome at trial. Without hesitation, I strongly recommend Mr. Jon Katz.

a fighter with extradinary abiility and commitment

Jon represented me for a shoplifting case (less than $100), and because of him, I am able to come out with a victory. At that time, I first went to interview with another lawyer, I was immediately disappointed, since he is the type of lawyer later on I saw many in the courtroom, who finished the case... in less than 10 minutes by somehow convincing you to take whatever comes down. I searched on line, I found Jon who already has a good rating and proved to be true from my personal experience. I am so glad that I hired him. I loved him from the beginning. He shows his trust, ability and commitment from the start, in the process and at the end. If you are only looking for a “companion” to the court, do not bother. If you are looking for a fighter who has the knowledge and ability and will commit them to fight the injustice for you, go for Jon.

A master of his craft

Jon represented me my criminal marijuana possession trial and my college's student conduct hearing. Because of his thorough commitment to my case and his excellent legal knowledge, I came out victorious for both cases. What separates Jon from the other excellent lawyers is that in addition to knowing... exactly how to handle his client's cases, he knows exactly how to handle his clients. He had my trust throughout our partnership, and I could tell he was sincere in his efforts to protect my rights and my freedom. Jon is great lawyer who truly cares about his clients; hire him and you will be in good hands.
