About
Jonathan D. Mester focuses his practice on representing victims of medical malpractice, including obstetrical malpractice cases in which the baby suffers severe deficits at birth including Cerebral Palsy and Erb’s Palsy. Jonathan has also successfully handled numerous workplace and construction accident cases involving serious injury and death, as well as nursing home abuse cases. Jonathan joined Nurenberg, Paris, Heller & McCarthy in 1998 as an associate and today is a partner with the firm. He is a member of the prestigious Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Membership is limited to trial attorneys who have won million or multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements. Jonathan has been selected for inclusion in Ohio Super Lawyers® by Law & Politics Media since 2010. Prior to being selected as a Super Lawyer, he was selected for inclusion in the 2006 through 2009 Ohio Super Lawyers Rising Stars by Law & Politics Media. Jonathan is most proud of the jury verdicts he has obtained for his clients. He has obtained four verdicts in excess of a million dollars, including the first medical malpractice verdict in several years in Columbus, Ohio on behalf of a four year old girl in 2013. On each of these cases, the wrongdoer offered little or nothing to settle the case, leaving Jonathan’s clients no choice but to take the case to trial.

We came in late to this lawsuit over our daughter’s death from an uneccesary biopsy. Although we can never get her back we did agree to settle on behalf of her daughter. We appreciate the work and effort Jonathan and his Assistant Rachel put forth in representing the family. They kept communication clear and supported us during our depositions. I do wish that Jonathan had been more assertive during the first deposition and insisted that my husband finished his deposition that day. I felt that the defendant lawyer had colluded with the court reporter in limiting our time for our depositions even though we ourselves had been informed of the potential length. By rescheduling only a video conference for his deposition, I believe this weakened our case against the defendant. Nevertheless we can now move on and put this awful time behind us, never to be forgotten.
Jonarhan D Mester took my case and I couldnt be more pleased after another firm shut there doors. Jonathan D Mester and Rachel Nemekay called, text, and emailed me with any updates making sure I understood everything. Case was settled and I couldne be more content, I give my higest recommendations, he cares about his clients and what they are going thru. So grateful to have Jonathan D Mester in my corner when I was in need.
I took some time to decide whether or not to file a lawsuit against a woman who had hit me back in September of 2019. I only decided to after she was giving me the run around about her insurance handling the claim, (she had hit me from the rear of my car). I finally contacted a dear friend of mine who is a semi retired criminal lawyer (J. Gary Seewald), who recommended Nurenberg, Paris Et Al, I was assigned to Jonathan Mester for my claim and hi administrative assistant Rachel Neneckay, both were very kind and helpful. There turn around time to respond to an email or phone call was also very impressive, I work for the Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court and I know from doing my job that the turn around from lawyers can be very stressful for a lot of people. I would recommend them to others.
Jonathan represented my family after horrible mistakes were made during a routine, outpatient surgery that resulted in the wrongful and untimely death of my mother. He is a kind and compassionate person and he handled our case like a true professional. The staff at Nurenberg, Paris treated us with dignity and respect at all times. Phone calls and emails were returned promptly and we were kept abreast of the case as it unfolded. When the time came, we were well informed of our options in the case and what the anticipated result would be. While I pray I never need this type of service again, but I would not hesitate to reach out to him should the need arise.
Due to the severity of my daughters accident, I had attorneys actively reaching out looking for our business. I did so much info gathering and research to ensure I chose the right person and firm to represent my family, Jonathan Mester was the best choice I made. He listened to our needs. He understood my concerns and allowed me to ask thousands of questions to ensure I was comfortable with the process. He fought tirelessly to make sure we were taken care of. Couldn’t be happier-highly recommend Jonathan Mester!
Jonathan was referred to me for a case involving an accident and Medicare. Since Medicare does not pay when a car is involved, it took perseverance to settle my case. Jonathan continued for many months until he got a settlement for me. He was professional and positive. His case manager, Rachel Nemeckay, was very helpful as we worked through all the paperwork. I would recommend Jonathan if you need a lawyer.
We contacted Mr. Mester with a case of medical malpractice, but didn't know where to start. Mr. Mester guided us through the medical issues, obtained all necessary documentation, professional witnesses and prepared us for litigation. Mr. Mester's team kept us fully abreast of all necessary information and was very responsive when I had questions. We were able to settle, receiving what both sides felt fair and without having to go through an extensive litigation process. Very compassionate, has a great team working with him and cares not just about the bottom line, but the client.
Professional, compassionate, caring, direct, responsive and determined. His team and his firm brought us from hell to peace through a very tough time in our family. They made sure we understood every step of the process and guided us where needed but also respected our own decisions. Thats what true teamwork looks like.
Jonathan handled a case for my son who was involved in an accident. I could not be happier with Jonathan Mester and his case manager Rachel Nemeckay. They always kept me updated on what was going on, and made sure I understood. They were very patient, helpful, professional and informative. I would recommend him without a doubt. He has my recommendation. Thank you for everything, Jonathan and Rachel!!
