This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Not a good lawyer

Like most lawyers, interested in money. Acted like an arrogant jerk to me and my wife. Settled the case but it was about him, not me. Didn't seem to even know what my injuries were. Had to ask his secretary.

Great result to a touch personal injury case!

Jonathan Dills represented me on a personal injury case from a car accident. The insurance company initially denied my claim and tried to shirk their responsibility. Jonathan stood up for me and made them come to the table. Ultimately Jonathan was able to settle the case to my satisfaction.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
