This is an amazing law firm. They helped me with custody and my divorce. I was always given personal attention and was able to reach my attorney day and night. I felt valued and supported.

DO NOT HIRE THEM. I hired them for what should have been a simple matter in family court and it turned out to be the worst expletives I have EVER had with a lawyer. All they care about is running through your retainer ! Dropped the ball on several matters. Calls and emails went unanswered ! BEWARE! You are better off representing yourself!

I had a very good experience with this attorney, who helped me with a traffic ticket in Rosendale Town Court.

My dealings with their office were hassle free and smooth throughout; the staff was very responsive (through phone, email) to all my concerns, followed up on the necessary details, was accommodating for my particular situation, and worked with me every step of the way, helping me to overcome obstacles (i.e. communication with the other party: the language barrier) and constrains set by my daily life (even if the Court time was set after-hours, leaving work earlier than usual would have been very hard for me). They listened to me, understood my case and my situation, and represented me in Court - with an outcome which far exceeded my expectations. I do not understand legal nuances of words, and the attorney was able to translate my everyday, common way of expressing myself, in legal terms, and this completely changed the situation (during the stop, the police officer gave me opportunity to explain my driving decisions, but I was not very clear - obviously I would have not done better in Court on my own, so having an attentive attorney speak in my stead was the best decision I could have made, and having specially this attorney, turned out to be salutary). It saved me time, money, hardship, aggravation, possible unexpected surprises: from my first call to the office, the staff was very open, upfront, revealing all details I had to know, giving me the peace of mind I need to do my work during the day.

I am totally satisfied with the office of Jonathan Katz, and I highly recommend him to anyone who does not understand Court proceedings, who wants to communicate clearly with the legal side and who wants to have good representation. After this experience, it is my firm opinion that just like the Court provides the environment for arbitration between two parties, an attorney could be the medium or interface between an ignorant party - like myself - and the Court. My logical conclusion is: if one is to get an attorney, the best thing is to get a good attorney; Jonathan Katz proved to be a very good attorney.

After being pulled over for a hefty speeding ticket I was worried about how fight to it. Talking to a few different offices I felt most comfortable with Jonathan Katz’s. Not only were they very informative and helpful but most importantly honest throughout the whole process. When it eventaully came time for the court date I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. For a ticket I was looking at a lot of points. We were shooting to get them dropped down and he acatually got them dropped completely. Of course I had to pay the court fine and fees but the points were my main concern. Would definitely recommend. Great office staff and honest.

When you hire Jonathan Katz, you are not just hiring an attorney, you are hiring an entire team of highly talented and responsive people who have your back throughout the entire process. They were always there to help me, no matter what, with expert advice and strategy. Mr. Katz himself was wonderful to work with and his fee was reasonable. He resolved my rather complex issue quickly, efficiently, and with the best possible outcome I could ever expect. I cannot recommend him or his firm highly enough!

I called this law office to take care of a ticket for me because I live over an hour away. From the start they were wonderful on the phone. Cheerful and professional. The attorney appeared in court for me and got my ticket reduced to zero points. That was critical for me because I drive tractor trailer and have to keep a clean license. I am grateful for their service. I would recommend them to anyone !!

If I could give zero stars I would. I usually do not write reviews but I felt that I had to speak my peace in this situation. I made an appointment back in September for a divorce consultation for Mr. Katz. His office called me 4 times to reschedule, each time saying he had to appear in court. This pushed my consultation up to the following month. After finally seeing him he basically told me that he couldn't help me and I would not be eligible to receive a monthly maintenance from my husband. The most unsettling thing about his consultation was that after I told him I was physically and mentally abused by my husband and I had police and hospitals records as proof. He seemed heartless and uninterested in hearing my story. I left his office crying after being there for less than 30 minutes, still charged $250. Also, no apologies from the receptionist when I came in for cancelling on me 4 times. Save your $250 consultation fee and go elsewhere.

I hired them for what should have been a simple uncontested divorce it turned out to be the worst experience I have ever had with a lawyer.
I was told one thing by them right from day one and than only a few months later when I asked about it again. I was asked by them who told you that ? That's not correct. Dropped the ball on several matters. Calls and emails went unanswered. I wound up doing a lot of leg work on my own and had to follow up with the clerks office several times my self.
DO YOUR RESEARCH I WOULD NOT HIRE THEM AGAIN.

All I can say is, if you are looking for "that" office or firm to represent you, it's Jonathan D Katz. Everyone at the firm is supportive, undeterred, but more importantly for you! I would not have been able to find better representation for a recent divorce. The team is fair, considerate and always there to help with every question you may have. I can't thank Jonathan D Katz and his team enough for making such a difficult situation easy to navigate, negotiate, and come to a fair descion. Thank you for being equally understanding and embracing about gay marriage and divorce. It was this experience that gave me the confidence I needed to decide my representation. Each person in the office has the drive and commitment to see it through with their clients which is genuinely true. If you need a lawyer, call the law office of Jonathan D Katz. You will not be disappointed!

After an awful experience with another law firm hired for my divorce, I opted to leave it and asked this firm to consider taking my case, which thankfully, they did. Jonathan, Debbie, Susan, and Liz are a wonderful team - knowledgeable, compassionate, intelligent, responsive, and willing to listen. They took me to the end of a long process, and I am very happy with the result. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone looking for a firm that is well-versed in law, but also considers the human aspect of what they are doing.

Jonathan Katz is an excellent divorce attorney and I highly recommend him. During the entire process, Jon was there for me from beginning of litigation to follow-up questions afterwards. The paperwork was timely filed and motions carefully researched and submitted. He explained the legal process and addressed all my issues/concerns. Jon was available to answer all of my questions and promptly returned my calls. Jonathan Katz did an outstanding job representing me!! We were able to reach an agreement before trial and I am very happy with the results of my divorce. Even after the divorce was final, he always answered follow-up questions and gave me legal advice to protect my interest regarding custody. I highly recommend him--he is an excellent attorney!!

I received a ticket while on vacation and was not able to return to the area to handle it. I called the law office when I returned home and Liz was able to handle everything over the phone and through email. That day! I had no concerns and Jonathan Katz was able to get a great outcome in the case. I was put at ease and never thought twice about my decision. From start to finish, I'm completely satisfied. I highly recommend Mr. Katz.

Got a traffic ticket in Dutchess County. First one in a long time. So I looked for local traffic attorney and saw Jonathan Katz Law with great views. Susan took my call, she was very patient and provided me with a lot of valuable information. She explained the process and the options available. She encouraged me to do more homework first (e.g. calling the town court, checking with insurance company etc.) before deciding whether to use their service. She also followed up with an email, showing me how to retrieve my NYS driving record. She’s professional, responsive and honest. Truly exceptional service, highly recommend!

Truly excellent customer service! Not only did they reduce my 3 point traffic ticket to 0 points, but I did not have to attend court (since I live out of state). They communicated quickly and clearly with me, took care of everything, and were very pleasant the entire time. Thank you for your professional attitude and great results!

I had a wonderful experience working with this law firm. They took care of everything for me, I did not even have to attend court. My 4 point ticket was reduced to a 0 pt violation , which I was very pleased with. Jonathan Katz and his associates worked in a very timely manner and I didn't have to worry or stress about the process at all. I live 2 plus hours from the area where the ticket was received and I was very pleased how minimally I was involved in the process yet, was kept very informed. Liz Sullivan was very professional , effective, a pleasure to work with and made the process very easy for me. I would highly recommend Jonathan Katz law firm !!

Best possible outcome! Engaged Jonathan Katz to represent me in a speeding ticket case from near the mid-hudson bridge. I wasn't familiar with the area, being from out of town. Jonathan's office was immediately reassuring, and with little effort on my part took care of the case end-to-end. The best part was resolving the ticket through a pre-trial conference with the local court on my behalf, and getting me an outcome far better than expected. Absolutely worth the investment; would recommend to anyone faced with the unfortunate affects of a speeding ticket in NY state.

Having been taken to family court a dozen times over the last decade, I had found it necessary to engage the services of 7 lawyers due to ineffectiveness, oversight, and incompetency. In the five years since I retained Jon, I have had one.

Time and again, the previous lawyers would have some vague expectation of what was possible, resulting in orders that were all over the place, and subject to revision. This resulted in my ex exploiting these holes to persistently pursue full custody through revolving petitions.

Jon changed that, He had clear vision of what is possible, and what is right. He is not a miracle worker. He is a Master of Law. It is his mastery that made it possible to shape custody orders that work for all parties involved, leaving no loopholes for my ex to exploit with perpetual petitions.

His lightheartedness, and ability to be present without angst, is a testament to the fact that he has not been jaded by the pursuit of justice (A rare quality!), and this proves to be a great benefit for his clients during stressful times.

He is quite simply, the best lawyer ever.

I had a workzone speeding ticket. With my license about to be suspended. I was able to have Jonathan D. Katz, Attorney at law represent me in court, without having to appear personally. They made everything as easy as possible and were very quick in their response to any question that I had. I was very happy with the outcome of my case, as I received no points on my license. The representation may seem costly when you first hear it, but trust me you will be treated very well and very thankful that you made the call.
