After consulting with a few different attorneys, I decided family law attorney Jonathan Wald was the right fit for my pending divorce and custody case. From the beginning Jonathan Wald impressed me with his no-nonsense attitude and determination. The simple fact that he was willing to give me his cell phone number “just in case” I needed him during “off hours” made my decision to retain him that much easier. In my opinion, it proved he was a genuine and caring attorney and not just a money hungry attorney like some of the others I had met with prior.

Jonathan and his staff are an amazing team and have proven they have nothing but myself and my son’s best interest in mind. His staff has always been available when I needed them to answer a question or even just to fill them in on the recent happenings of my case. Jonathan has consistently proven that retaining him was the right choice.

I can not say enough good things about Jonathon! He and his staff were very professional and always seemed to go the extra mile. All my calls/emails were answered ASAP, usually the very same day or by the next day at the very least. I always knew what was going on with my case. I always felt Jonathon had both my best interest and my children's best interest at heart. At the same time he was honest with me, when telling me what to expect and what I could not expect. He thought of ways to negotiate and settle matters that I (or previous attorney) never thought of. Most of all, Jonathon always stood firm for me. With my previous attorney things had been left hanging, which allowed the other side to do whatever he wanted. Jonathon made sure the process was finished, with no room for speculation.
My advice is to absolutely trust Jonathon. You will never regret it!

Jon Wald has helped me more than I could've imagined. He and his staff are very friendly, always helpful, and knowledgeable. There wasn't a time that I called or emailed that I did not get a response. He is very upfront and honest which is how a lawyer should be. He doesn't sugar coat the situation so that you can hear what you want to. I have been working with him for several months now and am very pleased with how my case is being handled and the results we have received thus far. If you or a friend are in need of assistance do not hesitate to contact his office. I was referred to him by associates and I retained him as my attorney the day of my consultation with him.

El peor abogado en West Palm Beach, si eres latino ni se te ocurra contratar este abogado, porque el tipo es medio racista. De paso, lo que pide y pide dinero despues que te dice que va a ser poco al principio. Te cambia la historia de una semana a la otra. Solamente al verlo te da mala impression, una persona bien sarcastica y arrogante, y el servicio nada que ver con el otro abogado que me trato con respeto.

This lawyer is a bit racist based on the comments he made towards myself and the way he referred to Hispanic people. In addition, he kept asking for more money every 3 weeks despite that he told me it was going to be a fixed amount and the agreement says so. I'm glad I asked him to withdraw from my case and I hired another professional and reliable Attorney in West Palm Beach. Jonathan D Wald isn't the person you will want on your side. I have read other reviews on-line and now i regret I didn't do my research prior giving him a retainer.

A real RIP OFF and SCAM. I had to fire him because he kept asking for more money and was making derogatory comments towards my hispanic ex-husband which I didn't like. He would want to work with someone who is racist? If you can trust the person that is working for you on a family case, then you shouldn't hire him.

In addition, he would never return my calls and whenever I send him an email his paralegal didn't have a clue about the case, so he would call me and then few weeks later, he would charge me for that call which it was supposed to be a free update about my case, at least via email, but no he wouldn't even do that.

Very arrogant person and I'm glad that I fired him and got to hire a nicer person that will not try to destroy my family, but resolve things peacefully.

I will stay away from him!! BEWARE a real RIP OFF!! Just do your homework before hiring an attorney for your family case, they all charge a lot, so at least you will expect someone decent, respectfully, not a racist and arrogant like Jonathan Daniel Wald

My sister and I hired Jonathan D. Wald and what a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE we had, i can't describe how bad this Attorney is. For starters he was very rude, and whenever we called in order to ask for an update he would never answer and one time he did he screamed at us!
But even though he screamed at us, he end up charging us for 2 hours for the phone call that was simply 10 minutes long.
What a rip off and joke of an Attorney.
STAY AWAY from Jonathan D. Wald.
Last night i met another mother who had a bad experience with him and she told me that no one in Palm Beach County likes him and that he even has a bad reputation within other attorneys.
Wald CANNOT BE TRUSTED

Amazing experience, had a very difficult child custody case which was handled and resolved in a very fast manor, I could not have asked for a better attorney or legal team on my side, Jon got me the results I wanted and did not overcharge to do it. A+++ Attorney and I would recommend him to anyone

Jon Wald has been the attorney for our family during a very difficult time. We find that he is caring and perceptive at all times. He is able to get right to the heart of a matter and deal with what is important very quickly. At all times, Jon is attentive to our needs and takes swift and effective action. His courtroom demeanor is courteous, but he is alert in his approach, allowing him to use his extensive knowledge to present his points clearly and effectively. We have observed Jon's innate ability to use the evidence and his skill to quickly uncover lies and evasive statements clients on the opposing side attempt in court. We feel that he was born to do what he does, as he possesses a skill and energy not evident in other attorneys we have observed. Jon Wald is an excellent attorney, and we are very fortunate to have found him.

If you are reading this you are probably in a difficult situation and are hoping that you make the right decision in selecting the attorney who will work with you to protect your child, you, and life as you know it. Rest assured, Jon Wald is that attorney. I am a regular guy who was faced with an opponent who unlike me had tremendous financial backing. Mr. Wald has responded to every communication from me nearly immediately, sometimes in emergency situations after business hours. His actions and advice early in the case were instrumental to the positive outcome achieved. In the courtroom Mr. Wald was masterful in the way he was able to expose and challenge falsehoods and misrepresentations. Furthermore, throughout the entire case, Mr. Wald was careful to manage my costs, which I am convinced turned out to be a fraction of what any other lawyer would have billed. Jon doesn't simply show up to work every day and "phone it in". He really "lived my case." taking the time to fully understand the entire situation and working tirelessly to achieve a solution. Sheryl, his Legal Administrator was also amazing, and worked tirelessly, even attending some of the hearings with Jon and being there to keep me focused and relaxed. and the same goes for Elizabeth the assistant who was very accurate and diligent. Please know that you cannot predict the relentless attacks that the other side may have in store for you, nor can you predict the effect such a prolonged battle will have on your ability to function in your daily life. Hiring Jon was the most important decision I made in my life, and I thank God every day that I did.

It is hard to tell with divorce attorneys if bad reviews are from clients, or angry ex-spouses. Jon was my divorce attorney and did a fantastic job. He is professional, honest, and and has a great reputation with the family law judges. He will fight for you over significant issues, without charging you for unnecessary matters. Meet with him for an hour if you are not sure, and make up your own mind.

The negative reviews by Luis B is completely false.

I usually don't spend time writing bad reviews but Jonathan D Wald screwed up my case. He is a rookie and very rude towards his clients. Moreover he never returns calls, he doesn't prepare for the case, barely reply to emails and it's a jerk. Do not hire him; i repeat do not hire him. Find someone else if you really want help
