No one better to handle your case
I won't go into details, but I will say that Jonathan took excellent care of me! He was compassionate, while remaining professional, and straight forward. In legal situations, my personal experience, I needed serious guidance. I couldn't make heads or tails of all the paperwork for my case. So having...

Jonathan represented me on a petition for factual innocence. He patiently listened to my story, answered all of my questions fully, and shared his opinion on the likely decision of the court. His court filings were well written and convinced the assistant DA to support our motion. We won in court ...

Incompetence at its worst
My experience with Mr. Lynn was through the law firm of Wallin & Klarich where he is employed. I did not hire Mr Lynn. Mr Lynn was pushed on me by the firm, after the attorney I did hire, was abruptly replaced. I was originally told by the firm that they were replacing my first attorney with Mr. Lynn...
Please disregard this review from a disgruntled former client who is retaliating against me because he was charged with a felony against my law firm. This review was posted after he went to court on his felony case and over two and a half years after I represented him. I have only positive reviews from my many other clients who have gotten great results. Per California bar rules and consultation with ethics represenatatives from the California bar I had to withdraw from this man’s case after he committed a felony against our firm, made threatening statements online and acted to basically sabotage our representation. However, the district attorney handling this man’s case contacted me to say that it was the evidence that I submitted prior to withdrawing from his representation that led to this client getting a favorable outcome on his initial case after our representation had ended.
