Great Attorney

I hired Mr. Milestine for a CPS case. He handled my case with professionalism and sensitivity. He helped me make logical decisions when I was an emotional wreck. He is the type of attorney that is on your side, not only understanding the law but human nature as well. I would highly recommend Jonatha...n.

Extremely thorough and knowledgeable

Mr. Milstein did an excellent job on recent legal work for me that involved parenting issues. He was easy to talk to, very kind, and thorough and prompt. I recommend him with enthuasism and with no reservations. He is extremely knowledgeable in this area of work

Excellent

I consulted with Mr. Milstein on a difficult case involving custody. He was outstanding every step of the way-- prompt, reliable, extremely knowledgeable, and made all the difference in creating a positive outcome that saved all involved a massive level of legal snags. He was professional, respectful..., and diligent in all aspects of the work.

Family lawyer | Aug 24

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer's work. Especially if you are involved in dependency litigation as a parent. As a former assistant attorney general for the State of Washington, he knows all the in's and out's of dependency law, which is a very esoteric area of legal practice: there are very few attorneys with more than a handful of cases under their belts. I do know about Jonathan's suspension and endorse him despite it. He is an extraordinary lawyer, his clients adore him, and he has never once dropped a legal ball."

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2010.

Suspension issued in WA, 2010

updated on 05/10/2012

This means the attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Jonathan’s comment:

“With all due respect to AVVO, and there is very little for their rating system, this suspension was not law related but related to my personal life. I am more than happy to discuss.”
