Knowing the judges and jurors — their passions over drinking and driving

July 1, 2016

When I am defending clients charged with DWI -- which I do all the time -- I am defending the very essence of our civil liberties.

He's a compassionate, committed and hard-working lawyer

Let me tell you something, if you really like your freedom DO NOT LOOK FURTHER, PLEASE! What other people said is totally true. Mr. Katz is the best in his field and you WILL NOT REGRET HIRING HIM.

I was charged with one felony theft and two petty theft. I am an F1 student and I thought that this stupid choice was going to ruin my life. It was the first (and the LAST) time I was being charged of anything and I really did not know where, how to find a good lawyer. THANK GOD I listened to people in those reviews. All the lawyers that I saw before him told me that I might go to jail for few days, but Mr. Katz reassured me that he will fight for me and will not leave the Court with a jail time sentence. Final decision: the misdemeanors cases’ were dismissed and the felony case was reduced to a disorderly conduct charge. This was the best scenario that I could get in order to not suffer from any immigration consequences and he GOT IT. I mean… if after reading this you keep searching…

Anyway, DO YOUR HOMEWORK and listen to HIM. He knows what is best for you. He’s a compassionate, committed and hard-working lawyer.

Thank you again. Mr. Katz, You are one of a kind. C’est vous, le chat!

Jon wants the best for his clients and fights hard to that result

What can I say about Jon that hasn’t already been said? The man is a genius. I called him the Mad Scientist because he is going find anything and everything possible to get the best outcome for your situation. The prosecutor tried to play hardball two days before my court date and Jon wasn’t phased at all and replied in kind. The next morning we had a favorable plea offer from the prosecutor. He likes to keep things light and that helps keep your mind off your situation. Jon wants the best for his clients and fights hard to that result. Prosecutors fear him and clients love him, you won’t regret choosing him to defend you.

Homework Pays Off!

Jon is a bulldog. In a judicial system that treats each defendant as a cog in a factory, Jon researches all the inherent biases in the system and advocates zealously and passionately on his client’s behalf. In my case, due to Covid-19, I needed to wait 10 months for proper adjudication. Yet, at the outset, Jon advised me to do a long list of homework to help with my case (potential misdemeanors for DUI and reckless driving). I accomplished all of the homework as quickly as possible. At times, it felt as though the homework would not provide me with the outcome that I wanted – given how impersonal the court experience had been. Nonetheless, when the day came, Jon meticulously went through all of the homework, presented it in a holistic and systematic way, and negotiated an excellent outcome on my behalf (dropped charge; substantial charge/penalty reduction on the other). The judge openly noted how impressive the homework was, and he went further noting that my counsel was outstanding. I couldn’t agree more. At times, Jon can come off brusquely or hurried, but he is always on his game when the day in court arrives. And that bulldog approach is precisely what makes him effective. Thank you, Jon, for a terrific outcome!
