I went from feeling scared I would lose my career, license, and other things to feeling confident and at ease.

After finding myself in a stressful legal situation I needed to find a good attorney. I made one of my best decisions by hiring Jon Katz. I had met with 3 other lawyers prior to meeting Jon, but after the first meeting I knew he was who I needed to represent me. I went from feeling scared I would lose my career, license, and other things to feeling confident and at ease. It is easy to see that Jon Katz cares about his clients and wants the best possible results for them. Throughout the whole process he always kept me in the loop and had constant communication with me, answering any questions or concerns. On the day of court he was very prepared and in control. He was able to get my original charge amended to a much lesser charge and I couldn’t be happier. Jon Katz is truly a master at his craft. If you need legal help look no further, do yourself a favor and hire Jon Katz.

Worth every penny!

Hands DOWN Mr. Katz got me the best possible result, a virtually not guilty for an obvious charge! Worth every penny! Just remember to do “The Homework ” he assigns you and have faith. Hopefully I will never need an attorney again, but he will be the FIRST one I call if I need to.
