This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

In good hands

Jonathan was referred to me by an acquaintance when I found myself involved in divorce proceedings. He was professional yet personable and put me at ease from our first contact. During times of self doubt, irrationality, and emotions he was the steady, objective, rational voice of reason. I always fe...lt my best interests were his concern at all times. We laughed, I cried, we problem solved together which was the key component- it was a collaborative effort between both of us. I would strongly recommend, and have recommended him already.

Highly recommend

I retained Mr. Lounsberry for a highly contentious family court case. He was very knowledgeable, organized and always responded in a prompt manner. Mr. Lounsberry kept my child's well being as the focus during this matter and helped us receive the best possible outcome.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
