Jonathan and his team went above and beyond my expectations! Mr. Drewes was kind, curious, direct, and informative throughout our communications. I never officially retained him but he was very attentive to my needs and helped me step by step though a process I never imagined I would go through. I came out sane on the other side in a large part due to him. I still don't feel I could ever thank him enough but I know if I ever have real estate related law concerns he will handle it! I will recommend Drewes Law PLLC to any family and friends although I hope to never need these services again. Thank you again Mr. Drewes

My real estate attorney Jonathan Drewes and his team were exceptional in helping me resolve a complex real estate matter. I recommend Jonathan Drewes to anyone needing any legal advice or services on real estate matters, based on his ability to analyze facts, put together a plan, and follow-up. I was kept informed of every progress with my case and included with every communication, and this brought an incredible amount of comfort to know what exactly was going on with my case and when. I couldn't have accomplished my real estate goals without Jonathan Drewes and his team, and cannot say enough good things about them and how grateful I am for their real estate legal services. I will be using their services again.

Jon is exceptionally knowledgeable about real estate law. I hired and consulted with him for a property dispute and boundary line issue, respectively. In both cases, Jon offered nuanced legal analysis that helped me understand the risks and benefits of various ways to approach the cases. Jon's knowledge by far surpassed other attorneys I consulted for both cases. He is personable, generous with his time and knowledge, and ethical. He is now my go-to real estate attorney. Do not hesitate to contact him.

Jon and his team have been fantastic to work with. They have been quick to help, clear in communication, and giving what resounds as sound and measured advice. I would say his pricing is fair, but he has been more than generous with offering opinions that haven't necessarily been part of the bill. I feel very comfortable with Jon's integrity, wisdom, experience and knowledge.

Probably the most important quality an attorney needs to have is great communication - and Jon has this quality and more! He always responded to my questions and concerns in a timely manner. Not only did he respond promptly, he was very thorough and often provided more than just one solution.

Jonathan assisted me in dealing with a mortgage and line of credit tied to a house that was extremely underwater. He advised me as to my options, but i had my own idea of how I wanted to handle this, which was to avoid bankrupcy. I called it a structured foreclosure. He assisted with the process of dealing with the bank that had the mortgage, and successfully negotiated a $44,000 line of credit down to a one time payment of less than $3,000. Seriously, I paid with an electronic check and that nightmare was over. My final act regarding this case will be filling out my taxes this year, and he was able to offer a referral to an accountant that deals with situations like mine. With Jonathon's help, I was able to purchase a condo, do the "structured" foreclosure, and settle a line of credit debt of $44,000 for pennies on the dollar. I am not completely out of the woods as far as my financial situation, but have been on a great path to financial freedom with Jonathon's help. I will recommend him to anyone dealing with financial hardships or issues. He will listen to your concerns, offer advice, and if you have ideas, he will weigh them and go over the pros and cons, but in the end, let you make the decision on how to move forward. I hope I never need to use him again, but if I am dealing with financial institutions trying to muscle me around, you better believe that my first call will be to Drewes Law. thanks, Robert

4000 characters is not enough to describe Jon's character, professionalism, commitment, integrity, impeccable approach, understanding and interpretation of the law, patience, trustworthiness, supportive, AAA rated attorney and person. Jon is savvy. And as an attorney, really really does have his commitment to service to his clients first and foremost.

John helped me with a couple of individual but related legal issues. He did an awesome job navigating the insane complexity of dealing with banks and heavily bureaucratic organizations and not giving up! The only reason for the 4 versus 5 star rating is sometimes the communication (check-ins) needed to be initiated by me. I would have liked more proactive communication.
