Jonathan A Cook

Jonathan helped me navigate an extremely difficult sanction for me. He got me my life back. He was attentive, helpful, informative and compassionate. He explained everything to me that I didn't understand and constantly helped me and kept me informed. Look no further. He is the best man for the job. ...

Jon was very helpful in navigating the entire Title IX process as a Respondent. He helped me with every step of communication, which was particularly important given that most of the process was done virtually. Jon was aggressive in determining how best to discredit witnesses. During meetings with th...e investigator and the hearing, Jon was alert and helped make sure that all important details were communicated clearly. Arguably most important to someone going through this process, Jon was a great mental support, especially considering the fact that I did not tell my parents about this process. Overall, I would recommend Jon to anyone in need of an attorney in his areas of expertise.

I initially contacted Jonathan for a consultation regarding an urgent code of conduct issue involving my son at his university. Not only did Jonathan return my call within an hour, he easily understood our dilemma and offered valuable counsel. As part of the appeal process, we engaged Jonathan to ass...ist with our effort where he provided sound guidance and stayed with us every step of the way. Given the very tight timeline, the amount of information required for the appeal and the overall anxiety we were dealing with, Jonathan was able to quickly pull together a very cohesive and compelling strategy. In the end, we prevailed on the appeal and my son is now in the process of completing his education. I am very pleased with the outcome in large part because of Jonathan.

Jon’s counsel helped me regain my life. I was facing an unfounded meritless allegation in an unfair system with nowhere to turn. Not only that, but I had complaints of my own that I did not even know how to put into words, or begin in a facially skewed proceeding. Although the system in place was not... fair, with Jon’s guidance I could prevail and put the transgression against me into action. I do not think I could have faced the proceedings if it were not for Jon’s counsel and support. Jon helped me help myself seek justice.   Jon cares about his clients. He would often talk during weekends, holidays and even during a family emergency. Jon was there for me during this terrible and chaotic time. Other lawyers may keep their clients in the dark as to strategy and options but Jon is transparent at every step. He is earnest in his consults and will tell you his opinions straight up. Aside from his transparent demeanor, Jon’s tactic to give “marching orders” gave me a sense of agency during the proceeding. Some clients may feel that this is burdensome. But it is quite the opposite. I believe that these “marching orders” affords a client the ability to shape the narrative and allows Jon a handle of the situation from his client’s point of view. This tactic proved invaluable to establish a narrative based on the client’s needs.   Other than the legal support, Jon went above and beyond in his care of my emotional health. There were many times where I suffered from panic attacks. Jon reacted to this with kindness and care outside of his purview as a legal representative. I gained confidence in my cases’ position because Jon was just a phone call or text away. This was something I never expected from a lawyer. But Jon is no ordinary lawyer. Jon understood my financial situation and could accommodate and work with me to establish a reasonable payment timetable.   I cannot put into words how all of Jon’s care and considerations afforded me to take back my life. He is worth every penny. But his results, his care, and his humanity are priceless. If you are facing a situation where you believe you may need a lawyer, look no further than Jon. This is because you not just getting a zealous advocate with his services, you are getting a friend and all in your corner of the ring when you may feel alone. You don’t have to be alone. Jon will be there for you.    

I hired Jon to represent me in a matter recently and could not have been more pleased with the outcome. He was knowledgeable, professional, and he handled the entire case flawlessly. I was in a tough spot and really needed my hand held through the process and he was there for me every step of the w...ay. Jon clearly had done thorough research on the subject and was able to obtain a successful outcome for me. He's fantastic and I highly recommend him.
