Fantastic Experience : HIGHLY recommend

I can say with ASSURANCE that Jonathan Jonasz is a FANTASTIC attorney - I don't really know how to convey the positive feelings I have about working with him. His work ethic, his tireless quest for justice, his calm and comforting demeanor during the most stressful of moments, his skill in conductin...g depositions....I could go on and on. He SAVED me from a terrible defeat that another attorney was going to let happen to me. I switched to him 2 weeks before trial and he successfully got my trial extended, gathered all the experts we needed to WIN our case and was able to get a resolution at mediation. He is polite, kind, caring and such a wonderful attorney. Not to mention, his office associates and staff were also fantastic. I loved everything about my experience with him and his firm. I will never be able to thank him enough for what he did for me and my family. If you are looking for a good attorney, you found him!!!!

Jonasz saved me thousands and won back my life!

Jonathan Jonasz and his team (Cristiana Esteves) represented me in a case regarding the modification of a timeshare and care agreement of a minor child. After struggling to defend myself from countless petitions for modification, which left me emotionally taxed and physically drained, a friend led m...e to Jonathan. Looking back to last year, I can say without a doubt that the day I met Jonathan was the first day of my liberation from a long-lived nightmare of excessive and unnecessary litigation, outrageous legal fees, missed workdays and the fear from being repeatedly served by my “seek and destroy” minded ex-spouse. From day one, Jonathan was straight-up with me; pointing out advantages/disadvantages of different legal strategies and the relationship and monetary cost of each. I was impressed with his knowledge of family law and his ability to recite case law specific to my situation on command. The most impressive quality that Jonathan has is his uncanny ability to display an unrivalled Pitbull-like mindset when he needs to be in “attack” mode for his client; nothing dirty, just good old-fashioned legal research put forth as technical acumen with a “kick.” After reading his initial email messages and hearing his telephonic communication to opposing counsel, I was sure that I was on the right side of the bar fight. As tough as Jonathan will fight for you, he’ll also work just as hard keep you from joining the fight. Rather than allowing me to self-implode many times during the case or have him employ retaliatory tactics towards my ex-spouse and her lawyer, Jonathan showed empathy for me and our minor child, he listened to and allowed me to vent, but kept me focused on doing what was best for our minor child. I recall one defining moment when I knew for certain that I had the right lawyer; Jonathan sat me down after he noticed that opposing counsel was getting under my skin…He said ”I have one question for you. Is your child important to you?” My answer was a resounding, “Yes!” To which he replied, “Well let’s do this the right way and leave the dirty stuff to them; the law is what we’ll fight with.” Jonathan successfully thwarted attempts by opposing counsel to serve me at my workplace, protected me from multiple baseless discovery requests, shielded me from my own natural desire to react while under attack, and was available via email, phone, in person no matter when I needed him. If my case were in the news, they’d be reporting on how Jonathan took my ex-spouse’s well-heeled lawyer behind the woodshed on my behalf and came back with my case being settled out of court in my favor! I knew a few months in that I had hired a solid lawyer last year, but when the process was over 7-months later, I was certain that I had gained a friend. I give an enthusiastic recommendation for Jonathan Jonasz and his team for anyone with family law needs.

Highly Recommended!

No one calls an attorney, because things are going well. When I first contacted Jonathan Jonasz, I was going through one of the most difficult times in my life. From day one, he was attentive, detailed, and honest. During my case I felt I was a top priority and a (much needed) sense of security... that I was in good hands. With every phone call, office visit and court appearance, Jonathan clearly demonstrate his expertise, knowledge, and professional demeanor. When it was all over, I walked away feeling confident I had had the best representation I could have gotten and glad with my initial decision to retain Jonathan Jonasz.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Jonathan and I were opposing counsel on a paternity case that involved very complicated issues. Even though we were on opposite sides, Jonathan and I worked very well with one another and actually came up with a solution that saved our clients tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. I definitely would not mind having cases against him in the future. Family law is quite contentious, but he is very professional in his dealings with other attorneys."
