I have had the pleasure of working with Jonathan Mintz and found him to be an exceptional attorney. He is not only attentive to his client's needs, but also has a disciplined approach to problem solving. His level of expertise and experience is an invaluable asset to any client.

Jonathan prepared my family trust, as well as provided very important related advice on taxes and insurance issues not just during the creation of the trust, but afterwards he continued to provide great service. Always very timely and gets to the point with clear, concise explanations as to why he recommends a certain course of action. I have recommended him to friends and colleagues and will continue to do so without reservation.
