A DIRECT CONVERSATION

A person first.
A careful look at the facts.

A legal question rarely arrives at a convenient time. You should be able to explain what happened and hear how the firm would evaluate it.

Jonathan’s practice includes personal injury and wrongful death cases, including motor vehicle collisions, medical malpractice, nursing home neglect, and premises liability. He has practiced with Nessler & Associates since 2007.

Every matter begins with its own facts. The firm offers a free consultation to discuss your circumstances and whether it can help.
