Jonathan cannot remember a time when the practice of law was not a part of his life. Both of his parents were attorneys and vigorous debate occurred almost every day in his house. In this environment Jonathan honed his advocacy skills so it was no surprise to his family when he decided to become an attorney. After completing his undergraduate work at the University of Missouri-Columbia, Jonathan attended Pepperdine University School of Law. While at Pepperdine, Jonathan was a member of Pepperdine’s nationally recognized Trial Team where he was awarded the Best Closing Argument at the San Fernando Valley Bar Association’s Mock Trial Tournament.

After law school, Jonathan worked as an Associate Attorney at the headquarters of one of Orange County’s largest litigation firms representing clients in a variety of civil litigation matters including financial services litigation and professional liability matters. When not practicing law, Jonathan enjoys running with his dogs, playing golf and baseball, and spending time with his family.
