Great Lawyer

I had a Capias for over 2 years, I hired 3 previous lawyers had 3 zoom hearings and none of them were able to get the capias Quash. I was in a severe accident so medically I thought why they couldn’t especially with all my financial obligations to the court had been met. After a recommendation I reac...hed out to Mr. Jordan and he told me then he would get the Capias quash and I’ll do no jail time. I was very skeptical because of my prior experiences with the other attorneys, but as promised 30 plus days later I walked into court wasn’t arrested probation terminated and I’m a free man thanks to this brilliant attorney. I highly recommend him he will get the job done and he’s definitely a man of his word.

A special thank you!

My family and I hired Mr. Jordan with hopes that he would excel. Mr. Jordan surely exceeded beyond our expectations during this entire 1yr process, especially his defense when it was time for trial. I remember calling Mr. Jordan after business hours, needing information in regards to my husband’s cas...es, and Mr. Jordan without any hesitation helped me and sent me over documentation via email to backup his explanation. I must say that he is very passionate about his position as an attorney. It was such an honor to have experienced such an amazing guy, especially during this trying and hopeless time. Thank you to the entire law firm. The staff was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. A special thank you to Mr. Johnathan Jordan for his skills in BEATING my husband’s cases. “NO ACTION”! “CASE CLOSED”! “DISMISSED”! Thank you so much Mr. Jordan

Great lawyer.

Thank you Jonathan for all your efforts in my son’s case. This lawyer is one of the best lawyer in Miami Florida .Great communication skills, he explained how things are going step by step and assure you what will be done to solve the situation. I hired one lawyer before him Hoffman that collected th...e money but never showed up in court to represent my son. Hoffman was a useless lawyer. Jonathan is a great lawyer , brilliant, dedicated, professionalism. He is easier to talk to and a great person who genuinely wants to help. I actually hired him for my son, he greatly sponged some of the charges and reduced the jail time.Jonathan is an intelligent, with strong analytical also have advocacy skills. All l want to say is to hire him if you want the job get done well. Thank God for your knowledge.

Jonathan was very kind and listened to my concerns from the beginning to completion. He responded quickly to my texts and phone calls. As an out of state client that was so important. When the legal issues confused me (often) clarified them. He even suggested a great strategy for me to participate in... asking for character witnesses. It’s was a long stressful 21 months waiting during Covid. A plea was made that I approved it of and we had to wait for the prosecutor to respond. The case was dismissed due to his hard work and other circumstances. I highly recommend Mr. Jordan

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I would highly recommend Jonathan Jordan to anyone who is looking for an experienced and competent criminal defense attorney. Mr. Jordan represented a co-Defendant in an attempted murder case with excellent results. Mr. Jordan successfully argued to the Judge that his client should be immune from prosecution under Florida's Stand Your Ground law. That's no easy task, and yet Mr. Jordan and his team at Rier Jordan made it happen. I have no reservations about recommending Mr. Jordan to anyone in need of a top notch criminal defense lawyer in South Florida."
