Jonathan Michael Francis

It's been some years now that I've been acquainted with Jonathan Francis. He has helped me establish trademarks and gave counsel on other issues that have come up in the course of managing my business. He is who I tell people to reach out to if they need legal assistance pertaining to entertainment l...aw. Jonathan is thoughtful and thorough. I always appreciate his insights!

It was really scary looking for a lawyer after an unfortunate situation, but I’m so grateful I found Phillips & Bathke, P.C. I worked with Jonathan, and from the very beginning he was patient, clear, and honest. I originally scheduled a 30 minute consultation, but he generously spent a full hour with... me, walking me through every option and making sure I understood exactly what to expect. We decided the best route was to settle with the company. At first, they came back with a huge settlement number that completely terrified me because it just wasn’t doable. But Jonathan worked incredibly hard and was able to negotiate one of the smallest settlements in Chicago for cases like mine. He genuinely understood my family’s situation and fought to get me the most manageable outcome possible. I am super happy with the settlement Jonathan was able to help us attain, thank you so much!!!!! Throughout the entire process, his communication was constant, his guidance was straightforward, and his integrity was clear. I spoke with a couple of other lawyers before choosing representation, and Jonathan is without a doubt one of the best attorneys out there for BitTorrent defense. I’m extremely thankful for his hard work, honesty, and dedication. I couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Phillips & Bathke to anyone who needs real support during a stressful time. Thank you!!!!!!!

Absolutely — here is the revised version with his name included: ⸻ I had the privilege of working with Jonathan Francis on a complex, two-year case against my former landlord, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From day one, Jonathan demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep knowled...ge, and genuine dedication to my case. He communicated with me regularly and clearly, keeping me informed at every stage so I never felt uncertain about what was happening. His research was thorough and meticulous, and it was clear he understood every detail and nuance of the situation. One of the most stressful parts of the process for me was the deposition, but Jonathan prepared me so well that what I feared would be overwhelming ended up being smooth and completely manageable. His calm guidance made all the difference. In the end, he helped bring the case to a resolution that met my expectations, and I’m deeply grateful for his hard work and advocacy. If you are looking for an attorney who is skilled, communicative, and truly invested in his clients, Jonathan Francis is outstanding.
