Posted by Jessica | May 21, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Family law

After dealing with a previous attorney that was well below satisfactory, Jon blew me out the water. He goes above and beyond for his clients, asking questions, filling motions most attorneys wouldn’t think of. This is an attorney that does his due diligence, and doesn’t rip you off! I am very greatfu...l for Jon and everything’s he’s done for me thus far.

Posted by KB | October 12, 2012 | Wrongful Termination

Detailed, Understanding, and Trustworthy.

Jon represented me for a case involving wrongful termination of employment, which was a very emotionally charged and sensitive experience for me. He settled my nerves by keeping me informed every step of the way. His confidence was founded in fact which was made evident by me gleaning the just resu...lts from my case. He researched extensively in order to maximize my results, which were above and beyond what I had initially expected. Jon clearly has a passion for the business and works tirelessly - and exclusively! - for his clients. It is definitely preferable to hire someone who handles your case from A to Z personally, without delegating it to someone else. The difference is that you have someone representing you that thoroughly knows the ins and outs of your case, which in turn allows your representation to be as proactive, informed, and effective as possible.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked with Jon Bethune on a complex maritime personal injury case and can say without qualification that Mr. Bethune is an intelligent, tenacious and dedicated attorney. Previously, we attended Loyola Law School together. I remember that Mr. Bethune successfully defended a young man who was wrongly accused of a criminal matter. He is an experienced trial attorney who cares about his clients and will fight for the best result."

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.
