Professional, Affordable and Expert Lawyer

I was facing a 4th degree criminal misdemeanor with a potential 30 day jail sentence for repeated speeding tickets (three moving violations within one year under Ohio law). I contacted Jon who thoroughly described my options and possible scenarios in a professional and responsive manner. Jon took my ...case at an affordable rate. Jon was able to negotiate with the prosecutor (against seemingly impossible odds given previous violations) to plead the third speeding charge to a non-moving violation. The case was disposed at the first pre-trial with no points to my license, no additional court sanctions and I got away with just a fine. I highly recommend Jon, as he is a miracle worker you want in your corner if you're ever in trouble!

Gratitude

Jon has been a true blessing! His expertise, knowledge of the law, and professionalism are second to none. His guidance through various proceedings following a divorce have enabled my family to move ahead in a positive manner. Mr. Garver diligently researched every financial aspect of the situatio...ns and provided options and advice for the settlements. He is proactive in a positive way to protect his client and their interests. I thoroughly trust Mr. Garver and highly recommend him! He has my upmost respect.

Custody

After years of trying to avoid family court, my family found ourselves in a place where it looked inevitable. We contacted Mr Garver personally (as he does not seem to employ a staff) and he immediately got to work on our case. He has worked tirelessly on our behalf. We have never had to wait on ...him or felt as if we were not a priority. He has listened to our every concern and has been patient with our ignorance with the system. He's has been an absolute blessing. It's such a comfort to know there are people like him working within our justice system. Intelligent, kind hearted people who truly make the world a better place.

Great results!

I was in a bad car accident that was the other driver's fault. My car suffered significant damage and I had serious injuries. The driver had Ohio minimum coverage that did not cover all my expenses and troubles. Jon's expertise, perseverance, and creativity resulted in a settlement that was better th...an I ever expected. Jon was great to work with and I will use him should I need him for anything else!
