Jonathon proved why he belongs to one of Cleveland;s Best Law Firms! From day one he showed compassion and concern for my case. I always received a quick call back when I had questions regarding the long process of getting justice for myself and the other victims affected by the wrongful actions of a particular cardiologist. Jonathon's personal assistant, Rachel, was fantastic too. Rachel was just as kind, compassionate and diligent when working with my case. I would highly recommend having Jonathon as an advocate for your legal needs.

Jonathan represented my family after horrible mistakes were made during a routine, outpatient surgery that resulted in the wrongful and untimely death of my mother. He is a kind and compassionate person and he handled our case like a true professional. The staff at Nurenberg, Paris treated us with dignity and respect at all times. Phone calls and emails were returned promptly and we were kept abreast of the case as it unfolded. I would not hesitate to reach out to him in the future.

Jonathan helped me to gain compensation from a hospital, adequate to meet the needs of my family, after my husband died. Jonathan and his staff treated me and my children with compassion, dignity, and professionalism throughout the entire process. He was realistic and honest regarding what might be accomplished, and I appreciated that very much. I was proud to have Jonathan represent us, and the lawsuit was a step in the process to gain closure for our family's devastating loss.

I did so much info gathering and research to ensure I chose the right person and firm to represent my family, Jonathan Mester was the best choice I made. He listened to our needs. He understood my concerns and allowed me to ask thousands of questions to ensure I was comfortable with the process. He fought tirelessly to make sure we were taken care of. Couldn’t be happier-highly recommend

A friend of mine referred me to this Law Firm in January 2017 after contacting several other firms that turned down my case stating that it wasn't worth pursuing. From the first day of contacting Attorney Mester he has assisted my family and I in our time of need. My case had it's challenges but I was stunned by the great results. I would not hesitate contacting him again regarding any future legal matters along with referring my family and friends to this firm.
