A prosecutor who wants justice will walk that walk, not the contemptuous path

Jon’s extensive experience and deep knowledge of the law enabled him to make a deal

If you are reading this review, then you are in the same place I was in about 4 months ago. I was charged with petit larceny at a large retail operation and knew the evidence was against me. During our first appointment Jon was direct and to the point. He did not judge me. During our talk Jon was very specific on what I needed to do to help him. This was defined as “homework.” He provided a very succinct plan and stressed that it needed to be completed. Completing this homework proved that I was serious and willing to make amends to society. Trust me… DO THE HOMEWORK! On the trial date, Jon was very active and persistent in working behind the scenes before the trial. He interfaced with the prosecutor’s witness and the prosecutor many times and was able to strike a deal. Jon’s extensive experience and deep knowledge of the law enabled him to make a deal. He was able to leverage my homework to show the prosecutor and judge that I was a person in the community who has learned his lesson. We received a positive decision from the judge. Jon helped me in obtaining the best outcome possible as a negative result would have destroyed my professional career. Jon worked his magic to my greatest relief and satisfaction. Honestly, Jon is a magician and will fight tooth and nail for you. Do yourself a favor… stop being confused now. HIRE JON KATZ!
