Jonah Dickstein represented me through the whole criminal process. He was always available to address my questions and concerns personally. His experience is apparent and he dealt with me in a straightforward manner (which I respect immensely). Mr Dickstein was able to get my charge dismissed!

Just want justice

If you are in a legal criminal circumstances in Polk County be sure Mr Dickstein is your first and only stop. Do not get a Bartow Lawyer or any local representative. Listen, hear, understand. Mr. Dickstein took our case in Polk County, completely turned around a prior jury conviction, and jursprud...ently presented, and applied relevant legal arguments that now shine a different light on the case. Let me tell you from experience people...call Mr. Dickstein FIRST. Mr. Dickstein is atty number 3. .. go figure on money wasted. After experience with previous attys I will tell you I wished I had known about Mr. Dickstein before going through the other 2.....think about it....already spent thousands of dollars, a guilty verdict, a dismissal, and now a new looming trial. A trial that evidently should never occurred in the first place. Listen ..just go with Mr. Dickstein. Especially if you Polk County. Take my advice.

Reviev of Jonah Dickstein

Guided me through a complex First Amendment case to a successful outcome. Was a pleasure to work with. I knew he cared both personally and professionally.

Diligent Defense

Mr. Dickstein provided not only a significant understanding of Florida law, but spent considerable time in answering questions and giving counseling as the case moved through the various stages of the legal process. Time is valuable, and Mr. Dickstein always provided enough to us without giving the i...mpression that we were just a case in the system, but real people in a real situation.

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.
