Through Thick and Thin

Jonathan Collins is a professional in his field. He and his colleagues have helped my family through thick and thin with his legal services. On one occasion, Mr. Collins traveled across Arizona to represent my family. His demeanor in and out of the courtroom is as winning as his record. I recommend J...onathan to anyone in need of legal services for family, bankruptcy and corporate law issues.

Excellent Lawyer

Jon is a very good moral honest person that is easy to determine upon meeting him. This gave me a feeling of trust very quickly which I think is essential for comfort in feeling you have good representation. Jon is intelligent, very knowledgable and well studied. He maintains communication consistent...ly and thoroughly. He is patient in explaining issues. Jon is always well prepared and prompt. He worked diligently to obtain a good outcome on a complex case for us. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Amazing!

Mr. Collins was referred to me from a co-worker in 2010. I've required Mr. Collins services a number of times and each time he has been phenomenal. Mr. Collins is honest, trustworthy, and seeks the best solution for his client. Mr. Collins constantly reminded me of what would be in the best interest ...of my children. He helped me see the bigger picture and explained each step of the legal process in a way that I could understand.

a great lawyer who cares about his clients

Jon was extremely professional when working my case for a guardianship of a child. Jon's work was very efficient and he kept in constant contact with me about my case leaving me feeling comfortable and taken care of. I felt secure with Jon in my corner on my case and because of Jon and the great wor...k he did for me, my family member was kept safe from harm at all times and was spared from potential and detrimental psychological harm. Jon is a great lawyer and despite his extremely busy schedule, makes you feel that you matter and are a priority to him as his client. I would recommend Jon Collins to all my friends, family and any other person that needs legal counsel. If I need legal counsel in the future, I know I will definitely be seeking help from Jon Collins every time.

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.
