Best of the best!

I came to Jonathan with a terrible child custody case that 6 lawyers before him could not straighten out for me. In fact, their mistakes further worsened my case. He was my last hope in fighting a highly litigated child custody case in helping to keep my son. He is direct and is not passive/aggressiv...e. He does what is needed to win your case by giving you the best advise and using his cleverness, experience and commanding presence in court. Turned my case around. I don't get what the bad reviews down below are all about. Those people must not have experienced the many terrible lawyers out there. Go with Jonathan and you will see what I mean.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
