Posted by Bruna | October 01, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Business

Innovative Problem Solver

Jonathan is a man of his word and a very skilled lawyer. He is very busy and “in demand.” That is perhaps his only downfall, although understandable for excellent representation at affordable rates. Jonathan helped us to negotiate a better settlement for our business, and he is fair and honorable abo...ve all else.

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.
