Posted by Damon | March 19, 2017 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

6 years later

After a total of 7 years, we finally prevailed. John stuck through it all. He figured out what was necessary to finalize a long and arduous process with multiple properties and financial ruin. His knowledge of the law and people is rare to find. As is his integrity.

A Breath of Fresh Air!

Mr. Kaiho recently completed the final settlement of my dissolution case which took nearly six years to settle. I had met Jonathan previously while he was with a larger firm and was very impressed with his sincerity, diligence, and honesty. When I heard he had opened his own practice I looked him up ...and immediately engaged him to complete this action for me. Within 4 months he accomplished what 2 other firms and my own efforts had failed to do in nearly 6 years, settle this case! My experience with Jonathan in charge of the case was unbelievably positive. He was more than reasonable with his billings and use of time and at times I even teased him about time that he should have billed me for but didn't. We didn't always agree but he was always prepared and always acted in my best interest using his high moral and ethical standards. I would recommend Jonathan to anyone at any stage of a family law proceeding as he showed the ability to not only take a case from the beginning, but also to pick a flawed case and clean it up in short order. A job well done!

Very helpful attorney!! Thank you Mr. Kaiho!

Mr. Kaiho & his partners are incredible!! When my ex filled for sole custody of our 4yr old daughter, i was confused (to say the least), had very little money & i didn't know who/where to turn to until a friend referred me to Mr. Kaiho. He represented me in the custody battle, held my hand every ste...p of the way, fought for my rights as the mother & helped me get 50/50 joint custody! Throughout the process, contacting him & getting my questions answered was never a problem. I would highly recommend Mr. Kaiho & his firm. He worked with me with my low & very tight budget & i am happy with the joint custody that i got.

Jonathan Mark Kaio Atty. at Law

I am sending this letter in regards of a matter that handled by John Kaiho and Associates, it was a civil matter that was very frighting to us even though we new we were innocent we were still fighting a major corporation and no experience in this issue and did not know were to turn. After being refe...rred to Jonathan and his legal team we immediately new were in good hands there professionalism and level of integrity was clear from the first meeting an we knew we had the legal team to handle are case. The corporation did not believe our story at first but with the persistence of our attorneys we felt at ease and knew we would in the long run and that was a great comfort, in the end the corp. finally realized that they would in court and dropped the case. I would highly recommend Jonathan Kaiho and his legal team for any legal matter in know from my personal experience that they save us from very scary situation and a lot of sleepless nights were avoided. Sincerely James Price

  • 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.
