First and foremost, Jon is not what you would expect from a stereotypical Lawyer and he is honest, forthright and willing to fight for you in the Courtroom if necessary. If you have thin skin and want someone to tell you what you want to hear as he prepares your case, he probably isn't the right guy for you. However, if you want a results oriented professional who will do everything in his control to obtain the best outcome for you, he is an Attorney for you and if you do your part, he'll do his and fight for you in ways that will achieve the best possible results. If you don't like the results, he is willing to go back and do it again to your satisfaction. He knows the legal system and will give you homework that is on you to do in preparation of a hearing and if you do your part, it will make his job easier to defend you and likely come out in your favor. Yes, he will check on your homework progress and expect you to deliver. The homework is to help you. I saw several other Attorneys working the court rooms and I can honestly tell you that Jon owns the Courtrooms he walks into and has several courses of action every time he is presented with a situation. He will go to great extent to uses the Courtroom as his playing field and level it to the best possible situation for his client or leave it if the circumstances are not in his clients best interest. We hire Defense Attorneys to look out for our best interests, but I would be remise if I didn't say that Jon is a good person who is genuine and really cares about people in general. To give you an idea of the type of person he is, he was willing to represent an individual who had no Attorney with him free of charge just because that person had no one, was not speaking English and refused council. I will say that you might pay a little extra for his services and experience, but it is worth it and will save you time, money and aggravation in the long run. The statement of you get what you pay for is so true in this case, that it could cost you more going with a less qualified Attorney. I did my research before selecting him and I'm completely satisfied with the results. read more

I stumbled into a misdemeanor charge; I responded immaturely to an act of aggression. My guilt was not in question, so understand there was only so much a lawyer could do for me. I had no experience with court and had no idea what to do or expect, so I turned to a law office I found on the web only to walk out more depressed after their gloomy outlook, Jail. It was a foreign cold dismissive experience talking to them, and I left wondering what have I done. My immaturity has put my future in their hands? I, fortunately even though I had little time, decided to continue looking and discovered Mr. Jon Katz. Jon, from the first meeting until our last contact, has a sympathetic warm way about him that engenders confidence. From the first meeting he focused on a method that not only developed his thorough interpretation of the event that led to my arrest but also with a focus on me, the human in difficulty. For some, that appreciation or sympathy may not matter, but it did to me. Jon's method and candor helped me settle down and coup as I was depressed, unsure, and yes, scared. There are things suddenly on the plate to take care of when confronting a court case and Jon, and his staff, professionally promptly handle the court scheduling and documentation expectations/demands so all that potential stress is absorbed by them. But most importantly, it was Jon's court savvy and experience that lead to a lesser charge. I was convicted as that was a given going in, but the punishment was community service not jail and for that I have Mr. Jon Katz to Thank. The last impression I choose to share is that Jon is driven, committed; Jon is a hard working determined legal mind. Mr. Jon Katz, and his prompt helpful staff, can help you prepare for and confront the court experience competently and confidently. read more

Per Webster dictionary: "(Integrity) means- (the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles)" I think there is a little more to a person having integrity you have to have consistent standards and be ethical. A little bit about what Mr. Katz did for me; I could of lost my license, my job, and had something on my record at an age that would of been held against me for my whole life. He helped and got me an amazing outcome which gave me a blessing to keep all of those things and is not going to harm me in my future.

In contradiction to the previous post, I didn't hire someone to "sugar coat" the situation I got myself into and hired someone who would obtain favorable results, so I got what I paid for. I'll be honest and say that if you are looking for someone to tell you what you want to hear, Jon might not be your man. However, if you want someone who is going to be honest and obtain the best results for your situation, then hire him. I personally have nothing but the upmost respect for him as a person and a professional. Based on my experience, Jon will do whatever it takes to get the best possible outcome for his client. In my case, I feel that he went above and beyond what most people, much less Attorneys, would do for another person. read more
