Reflections

Over three years ago, Jon Katz represented me in a criminal charge resulting from a pending divorce. At that time I was relieved and grateful that Jon had worked so hard on my behalf. Now, several years later; the divorce having concluded long ago; and the euphoria from the outcome of my criminal tr...ial a memory; I have had time to reflect on how it could have ended. Asking Jon to represent me was one of the best decisions I have ever made. He was direct, involved, and without exception my advocate. My original posting is repeated below: The complainant orchestrated a vicious campaign of revenge not only by filing a criminal complaint, but also with family members, my employment and elsewhere. During the course of the case, the complainant inflated the circumstances and lied to the prosecutor. Jon was unrelenting in his approach, and thorough in his preparation. I am convinced that Jon's work on my behalf was first and foremost focused on my best interests and also, moreover, on a fair and even handed conclusion regarding justice. Jon worked tirelessly, communicated effectively with the court, prosecutor, and me, and was prepared and responsive as the case matured. Jon devised a clear strategy and because of his efforts the court agreed to a reasonable and fair outcome for what had been the most taxing and embarassing event in my life. I have worked with a number of attorney's in my career and few would have cared as much, or expended the energy that Jon did. I highly recommend Jon, he is a bit uncoventional, and that trait makes him more effective than many other defense attorney's. If you are in need of a defense attorney, you want someone who will fight to win. Second place or a good try just doesn't cut it when your rights are on the line. Jon fought, worked, and was uncompromising in his efforts on my behalf.

Watching criminal TV serials

Jon got my DUI with 2 aggravating factors (refusal and totaling my car) dismissed. He was skeptical initially but carefully considered my view of the event. It got expensive at the end due to costs of 2 experts but it saved my professional carrier. Bottom line: Watch CSI (or similar TV serials) ...and use your common sense while presenting your ideas to Jon. He will make them happened and you get results. Being up on the web list doesn’t mean that he/she is the best lawyer. Before I got Jon Katz I fired the one of “top lawyers” after he started talking about diversion program and enrollment into educational courses. Read reviews, consider review counts and use you brains before hiring best lawyer. You are the man, Jon. Thanks

EXCELLENT!!!!!

I retained Mr. Jon Katz to represent me for a DUI charge that I was falsely accused of. It was the best decision that I could have made for this very stressful matter. Mr. Katz was extremely professional and dogged with his defense of me, and kept me updated along the way. Because of his knowledge... and expertise, I was acquitted of all charges. I cannot express what peace of mind and security I felt in his representation of me. I would recommend him to any person for his professionalism and excellence.

"Best attorney in the country"

Jonathan Katz is the best defense attorney in the country. After speaking with several attorneys around the metropolitan area, I arranged a meeting with Mr. Katz. He went over every information throughly with full knowledge of the law, the constitution, and my rights as a citizen. Jonathan has a g...reat sense of humor and is of pure brilliance, sharply intelligent and witty. Not one time did he make me feel unsure of my scenario at any given time. All answers were met with a quick response and as thoughtful of a person he is, he gave me a straight answer which i admired most. I was a nervous wreck during the court proceedings but again, Mr. Katz was mindful of me and remained tranquil. Jonathan Katz gave a not guilty verdict and there is no other attorney that can do that in the courtroom.

FAST AND FURIOUS

FAST AND FURIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was working with Jon for last 2 months on my case! i already worked with 2 different attorneys in the past for my other matters but the way Jon handled my case was awesome and truly amazing! I was so worried about my case and use to call Jon every other day a...nd discussed with him all the aspects of my case. I am really impressed with the way he responded to each and every call and email. On my trial date i remember when Jon came to the court, i was waiting for him outside the court room, he waived at me and said Good Morning he was sooooo confident and i was still so confused and was thinking how could be he so cool and calm as my life is on stake and surprisingly he got what he wanted from the prosecutor in one minute yesssss in 1 minute only he spoke to the prosecutor and came back to me with a smile on his face and said I have got a great deal with the prosecutor and indeed it was. I had googled out daily that what could be the possible consequences of my case but what jon did was absolutely different outcome in this type of case with no guilty and no criminal record. I am really greatful Jon. I recommend defendants to hire jon with no hesitation. He is super active, fast, and furious and can get the best possible outcome for all criminal cases. Thanks Jon.YOU ARE THE BEST
