About Jonathan
Biography
I have practiced law for over 25 years in the Washington, DC area. I handle all cases myself and do not have paralegals or other attorneys work on my clients' cases. My principal areas of concentration have been criminal defense, traffic and DWI law, family law, debtor defense and personal injury. I am admitted to practice in all DC and Virginia state and federal courts. My office is located near Old Town Alexandria one block from the Eisenhower metro.
