This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Unprofessional attitude

If you want someone to verbally berate you, treat you like you can't read, and encourage unprofessional treatment from their staff, then work with Jonathan. I've never been treated so poorly in interactions with other attorneys in the past.

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.
