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

Best lawyer yet

Mr Jordan has been an absolute amazing lawyer from the very beginning of our initial consultation he has been very easy to work with he made sure I was educated every step of the way he made sure to keep an open communication line and was available every time I needed him he help keep my stress level... down during a very frustrating time for me I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him to others not to mention my case was dismissed with no fines to pay out of pocket. Thank you Mr Jordan for making my experience a productive positive one. I appreciate you.

Great Lawyer

Jonathan was highly recommended from a few fellow friends whom he’d won several high profile cases for I hired him on a case where I had several armed trafficking charges after being released on house arrest bond as result of a won author hearing I picked up two separate drug charges which Jonathan g...ot me released back on house arrest with the same roaming conditions this guy is just a great attorney all around he breaks down the proceedings to you he keeps it real and tells you what to expect instead of selling a dream very professional, very inclined with law and nonetheless got me out every time I violated my house arrest conditions with a new charge I would recommend him to any one who wants to be free oh and he beat my case and got every dollar they confiscated from me

Thank you

Johnathan is a honest,proactive, and very straight forward attorney. I first came to Johnathan back and February regarding my brother serving a 25 year to life sentence. I knew that my brother needed someone who is well educated and the field so I researched and asked around and was pointed in Johnat...han's direction. From day one of my brother's case he kept me and my family updated on any changes,Which at that point we knew this was someone who was never to busy to personaly communicate with his clients. I can go on forever bragging about Johnathan work but it will take a novel to complete,So to some it all up,My brother will be coming home soon and we give great apprecition to Johnathan and his team for taking such a burdon off of our family.

"I endorse Jonathan without hesitation. We started next door to each other as public defenders in Fort Lauderdale and I have seen him achieve amazing results for clients and maintain tremendous relationships with everyone in the criminal justice system. We have conducted voir dire, tried, and won cases together. I would welcome the opportunity to learn more from him in the future."

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."
