About Jonathan

Every client has a unique story to tell. About their families, their finances, their health, their worries, their hopes. About the past, the present and the future. I am always eager to understand each story and to get to know my clients. Then together, we construct an estate plan to meet their goals and put their minds at ease.

Creating an estate plan is very serious work, and many clients have serious issues that need addressing. Nonetheless, we usually enjoy our talks and there are often moments of laughter as we work together.

My clients include young people just starting out in life, and older people who want to be sure that their wealth eventually goes to the people they care about. My work includes creating wills, trusts, powers of attorney and health care surrogates. I also help people worried about losing their assets to nursing home costs, who want to protect minor children, and who want to ensure their special needs loved one is cared for as time goes on.

It is a great honor when someone shares his/her story with me. It’s gratifying to be trusted to help people make some of the most meaningful decisions of their lives. I always give 100%, because I love my job, and I think it shows.

      Great Estate Planning Attorney!

      Posted by

      My wife and I hired Jon as our Estate Planning attorney and couldn't be happier with the services provided. Jon is a very hardworking and honest man. He educated us throughout the process and made sure we were comfortable with all of our decisions prior to executing any agreements or documents. I would highly recommend Jon and his team for any of your Estate Planning needs.

      Creating a Trust

      Posted by

      We engaged Jonathan to create a Trust package for us. We feel he has a deep and comprehensive understanding of the issues we faced. The Karp Law Firm make up of more senior members with years of experience coupled with younger members with an eye toward the future allow me to feel safe and comfortable in their hands.

      The Karp Law Firm, P.A.

      Posted by

      My husband and I cannot thank The Karp Law Firm, P.A. (their entire firm) for making sure that even though we were doing business during the coronavirus pandemic, they performed their duties in the utmost professional and timely manner. They made it possible for us to conclude our estate planning without having to prolong the process. Their outreach to all of their clients to provide not only a safe environment for conducting business but providing the utmost professional legal advice was beyond our expectations. Their system of conducting execution of legal documents was absolute perfection and I wish they could present this model to all other law firms. Thank you for taking an impossible situation and making it possible. We were fortunate enough to hire Jonathan Daniel Karp and Joseph S. Karp and appreciate their dedication to their law practice and their clients. The added bonus is their dedicated staff. Thank you everyone.

      Update of our business

      Posted by

      We have been clients of the Karp Law firm for years. This was first time that we have dealt with Jonathan Karp. He was very easy to talk too, he knew how to get done what we asked. He answered my email quickly. He is bright, articulate, charming and very intelligent. He must make his parents very proud. I highly recommend his work.

      Excellent firm. Great lawyers. Elder care experts.

      Whether you’re considering legal advice for yourself or a loved be sure to contact The Karp Law Firm. It’s never too early to plan and even if you find yourself “behind the 8 ball” re planning, this firm has the expertise and follow through to make it happen. They’re not only knowledgeable but also very fair and compassionate. We contacted and hired Karp Law for “mom” as they’re highly respected and extremely knowledgeable in the field of elder law, and hired them again for our own needs.

      The Consummate Estate Planning Professionnal

      Posted by

      After a compete review of our current plans, he addressed our concerns and explained clearly, the impact those changes would have, as well as pointing out what needn't change. Had our best interests in mind...Not driving up unnecessary fees. Jonathan is extremely knowledgeable on current changes in law, both Federal & State, that would have immediate impact, as well as pending legislation that could/would affect our heirs. In addition, he is both personable and patient especially with the elderly. He "listens" -- a very important trait when dealing with these very important matters. We are both confident that he understood our needs and could trust his recommendations. We highly recommend him.

      Jonathan is a knowledgeable, compassionate and dedicated lawyer who is a great advocate for his clients. He's an honest and ethical lawyer who brings credit to the profession. I refer individuals to him without hesitation because I know that he will take care of them and that he has their best interests in mind.

      Christopher Bruce, Estate planning Attorney on Mar 2, 2019
      Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

      I am a Board Certified Marital & Family law attorney and when I come across a estate planning or elder law matter in my practice I refer it to Jonathan and his team without hesitation because I know he will ensure that every client I refer will receive the same high level of care and attention that I strive to provide to the clients in my law firm. There are plenty of lawyers who know the law, but few who provide the type of "bedside manner" that clients deserve. Jonathan and his firm provide this level of service which is why I trust him with my referrals.
