Jon H Weiner

I wish I didn't have to do this, but I feel potential clients should be warned about Jon Weiner before taking their cases to him. Mr. Weiner takes a volume approach to his clients. He takes on cases, puts in minimal effort, and basically leaves settlement to chance. He ended up costing me a lot of mo...ney, despite the strong case I brought to him. I very much regretted bringing my case to Mr. Weiner, after 3 other attorneys had gladly offered to take it due to the strong evidence in my favor. I am a lawyer by training, so I know what quality legal work looks like. In Mr. Weiner's representation, he did little more than churn out a handful of poorly-written letters to the other side. Inexplicably, early on in my case he refused to raise certain strong arguments in my favor, seemingly out of no other motive than laziness. While he later raised some of these arguments (in the form of written work product so poor I rewrote it for him, including basic things like transition sentences, which he then edited out without explanation), the delay weakened my position by pushing us up against the statute of limitations deadline. As the statute of limitations deadline approached, Mr. Weiner flat out refused to file a complaint, which would have strengthened my bargaining position and tolled the statute of limitations. He simply didn't want to make the effort. All the while Mr. Weiner was putting forth minimal effort on my case, he was consistently rude and condescending (in emails, because after I agreed to give him my case, I never again got the chance to speak with him on the phone). The guy represents the worst of the legal profession. No care for his clients, just an eye on making a buck with minimal effort. Do yourself a favor and steer clear.

I spend several hundred dollars & days just preparing for my meeting w/ Mr. Weiner; he showed up half hour late, had reviewed nothing I sent him & told me to 'beg the AG & Judge' for mercy to have my case dismissed. I was suing for having my MOST BASIC CIVIL RIGHT BEING REPEATEDLY DENIED BY DHS FOR D...ECADES with tons of evidence. He taught me how broken & corrupt our system is: you cannot afford due process if you don't have $5,000 disposable cash to give to people who could care less whether you live or die. I've always been a stellar citizen; after his treatment & SAIF being all about profit, I know our system has completely sold out & the common wage earner is screwed. We literally cannot afford attorneys like this: they are draining our system defending laws that have caused the greatest wealth gap in our country's history. He taught me HARD WORK REALLY DOESN'T PAY. Avoid caregiving, as it's legal to get molested while you work (this attorney DID NOTHING ABOUT THAT, EITHER.)

Jon Weiner has been defending my son,as a public defender for 10 months. My son still has not had his court date,due to circumstance beyond Jon control. I believe he has gone above and beyond his duty to assure that my son get a fair trial. Jon has even gone so far as to hire a investigator to check... out leads that will hopefully help my son. I believe that the outcome will be positive for my son, but we will just have to see. I believe if it is not positive Jon has done everything he has been able to do in order to insure my sons positive outcome
