About Jonathan
Biography
I started my career working on behalf of the people of Greene County because I like to help people achieve a fair and just result within our legal system. I fought for victims and sought to be fair to those I prosecuted. I will use that sense of justice to fight for your benefit so that you receive the result you deserve. When it is possible, I will encourage a fair settlement that does not unnecessarily drive up your legal costs, but when it isn't, I am prepared to take your case through trial and be a fierce advocate for your rights.

Jonathan Douglas Osborne's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Osborne played a vital role in securing past due child support payments with the Greene County prosecutor's office. In private practice, I have witnessed him use that knowledge and experience to his client's benefit on a number of occasions. If you are involved in a domestic or family law matter and need an attorney I would definitely suggest you give Mr. Osborne a call."
"I endorse this lawyer. He has spent years in the prosecutor's office dealing with child support enforcement and will use that to his advantage in his family law practice."
"I happily give my endorsement to Mr. Osborne for all family-related matters. Mr. Osborne brings a rare skill-set to the family practice, as he spent many years as a state prosecutor (and many of those years prosecuting family-related legal matters). He genuinely wants what is best for his clients, and has the negotiation and trial skills required to get it for them. A fantastic choice if you're looking for a family attorney."
"Jonathan is a seasoned battle axe when it comes to child support enforcement. Over the past ten years or so, I have always found him to be firm, but fair."
