Great Attorney

I regularly work with Jonathan on complex commercial litigation stemming from restructuring matters. He is a brilliant strategist and an excellent orator. What sets his apart from his counterparts, however, is his attentiveness to his clients' goals and ability to deliver creative solutions to meet ...those needs. In addition to his unique approach to dispute resolution, Jonathan has an expansive range of knowledge on both business and legal topics and is always professional in his interactions with clients and counsel alike. This combination of skill and civility makes him a pleasure to work with.

Brilliant strategist!

Jon has represented companies with which I worked and has also represented clients in need of restructuring help. He has also been co-counsel in various matters. I have had extensive opportunity to observe, benefit, and learn from Jon's sage advice and excellent representation. With his profound k...nowledge and skill in bankruptcy litigation and procedure, Jon is able to use his talent to work around problems and devise strategies for resolution that are almost always outside the box. With his unorthodox approach, and the brilliant manner in which he approaches resolution, Jon's strategies always benefit his clients. As a result of his resolution abilities, Jon is sought by clients across the country to figure out creative ways to end expensive litigation. Jon is a valuable asset, and a great lawyer! I would recommend him to any client, and would hire him myself if I needed representation in his area of expertise. Sincerely, J. Ronald. D

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.
