I have been practicing family law for over 17 years in the DFW area. I have been both a mediator for Jonathan’s cases, and we have been on opposing sides of a few custody cases. Jonathan is a patient and thoughtful attorney. He is always helping his clients analyze difficult facts and weigh options. I am impressed with Jonathan’s ability to think outside the box for solutions that help families, and save legal fee expenses. He is a skilled and trusted advocate and we are lucky to have him in our legal community. I highly recommend Jonathan as a family attorney.
