You're in good hands

I hired Jonathan upon the high recommendation of a retired public defender who respected and admired his ethic, background and track record. When Jonathan called us and spoke to me and my son, I felt a huge burden lifted. He clearly knew what was needed to do and told us about his plan and strategy... at our first meeting. It is very reassuring to have someone with experience and expertise in dealing with what was a different world to us. He took time out to give us background on how the judicial process worked which allayed our apprehensions. When the case became more complicated, Jonathan continued to be very patient and understanding. He constantly communicated with us by phone and through email and he was always available to hear us out. Jonathan is someone you definitely want on your side if you are in any legal trouble. Thank you very much.

Excellent Trial Attorney and a Lifesaver

I had the pleasure of working with this excellent attorney in 2007. I was facing a possible life sentence and Jonathan Mandel worked very hard and aggressively to ensure that I received the best possible outcome for my case. He constantly came to visit and see me while I was incarcerated in the Los A...ngeles County Jail. He always gave me good honest advise so that I could make the best decisions for my case. He gave me realistic possible outcomes both good and bad for what I was facing. Needless to say we ended up going all the way to trial on the case and he persuaded the jury to find me not guilty on attempted murder and manslaughter. On the last count jury was hung and I was released that day from incarceration. Let me tell you this man is an EXCELLENT Trial Attorney bar none. Had it not been for Mr. Mandel's hard work my life would of been over. I can't express my appreciation and thanks enough for what you've done for me.

Recommendation for Mr. Johnathan Mandel

Jonathan Mandel is an excellent lawyer. He really knows his practice. Mr. Mandel is an excellent communicator both with his clients and with the government officials. He immediately handled issues and returned all our worried correspondence regardless of when it was received. Watching him negotiate h...is client's best interests in the courtroom was very impressive! Ultimately with Mr. Mandel's perseverance and expertise our family member, who has unfortunately been challenged with a mental illness, responsible for his misconducts, received medical help he needed and the least possible punishment available in his case, as opposed to years in state penitentiary! We are truly grateful to Mr. Mandel's for this victory: he saved all our family members years of undue suffering.
