A REAL SUCCESSFUL FIGHTING ATTORNEY

I would like to thank Jon Renge For taking his time and meeting with me to answer all my questions.. I have a pretty serious case open rite now and i contacted him and he returned my call real fast and met up with me the following day. He answered all my questions the best way possible. He gave me so... much confidence and hope. I appreciate his honesty and gave me the pros and cons for my case. And made me feel comfortable at his office while he explained everything to me step by step and made sure i understood everything he was explaining to me. He also helped many of my family members with real serious cases and was really successful with all cases. He is a great fighter in court and takes so much pride in his work and always keeps his word.. He has never let us down.. I would reccomend jon k renge to anyone who needs a real Attorney. His work is Highly Appreciated. I will be Hiring him in the future..

A MOMS HERO

We were referred to Mr Renge by a family friend, we had absolutely no experience with the court system previously and did not know what to expect. Mr Renge walked us step by step through the procedures, what to expect, all the ins and outs of our case. Mr Renge was in constant communication with us, ...he was available to answer any questions at a moments notice, text, email or phone call away. Mr Renge was honest, fair and above all very professional. He fought for my sons case, always making sure we understood the proceedings and what would come next. What we appreciated most of Mr Renge is that he would tell us all the good about our case and also the bad, so we were very aware of what the outcome could be at its worst. During our entire ordeal several people would mention to us that we have a really good lawyer, not once did we hear any negative praise about him. My Family would highly recomend Mr Jon Renge.

Jon Renge - Selma

Jon is a great lawyer, from the day my father and I met him. We laid out the details to him on the case, he set a goal for my fathers case. Not to long ago my fathers case was settled and with the goal accomplished. Jon is great guy, he's great with clients nothing but respect for the man and his ser...vices. Highly recommend him for anyone in need of a lawyer.

Terrific Defense Attorney

At our first meeting, Mr. Renge explained my situation carefully. He detailed all the possible charges, and then laid out the probable outcomes for each charge. He underscored that the actual result depended on many factors, the DA, the judge, etc., and that no outcome could be guaranteed. Throu...ghout it all, he kept close contact with me, even though I’m in Alameda County and he is in Fresno. He was always very courteous and accommodating. Everything he said has turned out to be accurate. Thanks to his skill, I’m getting the best possible result the law will allow. I recommend him highly, without any reservation, to anyone who needs a defense lawyer.
