Jonathan McDonnell, Attorney
Jonathan began his law practice here in Iowa on a mission. In 2013, Jonathan and his family suddenly and tragically lost their father at the hands of questionable medical practice. In the wake of that loss, Jonathan chose to pursue a law degree with the hopes that he would be able to prevent losses like the one he had suffered or to console and compensate these grieving families. Jonathan then graduated in the top portion of his class from the University of Iowa College of Law and began his practice.
While serving families across the Midwest, Jonathan has navigated pathways to victories in cases involving medical malpractice, personal injury, contractual disputes and resolutions, immigration, criminal defense, business establishment, real estate, family law, guardianships, and other civil plaintiff’s matters. Jonathan has won acquittals on challenging criminal cases, secured relief in removal cases despite significant roadblocks, and negotiated financial settlements on many cases other attorneys had declined.
