I hired Jon to remove alimony. My ex was representing herself. This was actually an easy case for Jon. But, Jon was very professional the entire time. My ex was not cooperative at all. We ended up in settlement conference and the ex did Not show up. Jon, gave me the option of stopping here or to continue to trial. I state this because he could have made more money on me if we went to trial. I requested a trial to seal this case for good. I was impressed with Jon during the first hearing in that, he was reviewing the case rather than sitting there like all the other attorneys soaking up my money for nothing. The only negative thing I have to say is, he added 4% to my bill for office work. It might have been in the contract that I did not see but in any event. Out of the 4, yes 4 attorneys I had he was the best of them all. If you have to I'd hire him. I think he is as fair as your going to find in this business. I wish I had found him first, as I believe I'd would have gotten a better deal than I got with the others... Divorce Suck when there are arguments.

Knew exactly what he was doing. Our family was up against a female lawyer that was downright nasty. Retained Jon and all of the personal harassment stopped. This was a child custody issue. The parents never married. No child support was ever paid. The father and his family lived in another state. The father's mother decided she wanted to raise her grandson and they did everything they could to discredit my new granddaughter-in-law. It didn't work. She is a very good mother and has trained her son well. The paternal grandparents assumed my granddaughter did not have the financial resources to fight. They did not count on her new family stepping up to help plate to help financially or on our being willing to co-sign for her. Jon was able to work around all of the issues and establish a reasonable visitation schedule so the boy could enjoy both sides of his family and the child support is a reasonable sum.
