I knew picked the right lawyer!!

Jonathan Vaknin was great from the start! He was very patient and straight forward throughout the whole ordeal. Getting summoned and hiring a lawyer was new to me and he explained the process, expectations, reasoning, basically provided all the information and guidance I needed so it was a no brainer... that I'd hire him. I had an outstanding debt that I had to satisfy and he was quick to coordinate with the opposing party to settled the balance with an amount that I thought was much less than I was expecting. His guidance and services was well worth and I would highly recommend him to anyone with similar cases!

Review Jonathan Vaknin

He represented me in a debt resolution matter. The process took approximately 10 days in which he was able to cut the debt in 1/2 and secure reasonable payment terms. From the start he was professional, a great communicator and as previously stated a great negotiator. He never over promised anythin...g, kept me informed every step of the way and I’m extremely happy with the results. I would definitely hire him again.

Debt Collector Lawsuit

I was severed by a law firm that represented Capital One and I retained the services of Jonathan to assist in helping me negotiate a settlement. The entire process was painless and took less than 2 weeks to come to a settlement agreement that saved me 40 percent of what was owed. I could not ...have expected more from an attorney as Jonathan was on point in every aspect! If your looking for someone that understands his trade, communicates clearly and responds in a timely manner to your calls/emails, then he's the guy. Thanks again Jonathan!

Most excellent experience

I tried to negotiate my own debt settlement and the bank wouldn't budge. I hired Vaknin law firm and they negotiated the settlement down to 55% of what I owed saving me over 15k. Jonathan was patient with me and never pressured me in any way. The process and the results were excellent. I highly recom...mend them.

Above and beyond quality service!

Jonathan Vaknin made frightening the process of getting my student loans out of default and putting me back in good standing painless and enjoyable! I could not say more about how helpful and patient he was, taking time out to explain everything in such a way that I could understand and putting me at... ease. I walked into this process not knowing anything about my payment options or even what half of the terminology meant exactly, but Jonathan made sure to throughly explain everything to ensure that I understood every step along the way. I never once felt like I could not reach out if I had a question and Jonathan always responded in an extremely timely matter throughout the entirety of the process. I would highly recommend Jonathan Vaknin for any one looking for help with debts of any kind!!!!
