The best

Mr Jordan represented my husband on an appeal murder case in which he had gotten a life sentence. He worked very hard for him and got his life sentence and charges vacated. I would recommend Mr Jordan at the drop of a hat. He will work very hard to bring your love one home.

Best criminal attorney that can possibly exist.

I hired Mr. Jordan for a criminal infraction case. After countless nights of stressing my charges and the possible outcome, I was told by my attorney that the case was dismissed. I would definitely recommend the Rier & Jordan P.A group. They’re extremely professional and know exactly what they are d...oing.

Determined, Honest, & Capable

Mr. Jordan managed to get my misdemeanor case dismissed quickly, without requiring me to attend a prevention program, which he said is almost always demanded by the prosecution in order to even contemplate dropping the case. Even if my case wasn’t too serious, he always worked hard for me, convey...ed clear expectations, and obtained the best possible result. I truthfully don’t think a better job could have been done!

Very Proffesional

My sister spent over 4 yrs in prison after being sentenced to 25 yrs for something she never did. After being badly represented by some other attorney through that process, losing the final trial, and finally sentenced, Mr. Jordan took over the appeal case some time later and in a very short period o...f time, Mr. Jordan helped to reduce the 25 yrs sentence to 5 yrs which were almost completed. I highly reccomend Mr. Jordan as a criminal attorney, he and his team are very proffesional, respectful, and take their clients cases as if it was their own case. Me and all of my family are very grateful, my sister got a new opportunity from God to have a new life through the exceptional work that Mr. Jordan did in her complicated case !!!

Great lawyer

My name is Rayshawn Brown and I hired Jonathan as my defense lawyer for my case. I was sentenced to 25 years in state prison, Jonathan did my appeal and did a great job defending me on my case. In the year 2018 he won my appeal with the help of his law firm, they are a great team. I am now out of pri...son. I thank them for all of their hard work, they saved me from serving 25 years of my life to the prison system. I can now have a chance at living out my youth and making something out of myself. I am only 25 years old and now I have a long life ahead of me. Once again I appreciate them for all of their work. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that would like results by winning their case.

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."
