About Jonathan
Biography
A lawyer owes to a client allegiance, learning, skill, and industry.
I take this seriously.
I know I owe my clients the highest duty of loyalty.
I believe this means they are entitled to unvarnished and unembellished communication.
I believe this means they are entitled to transparent billing in non-contingent fee arrangements and a clear accounting of contingent fees and costs.
I believe this means they are entitled to rely on me to confront their legal adversaries with every tool at the ethical litigator’s disposal.
