Jonathan represents Legal Aid clients in matters before the D.C. Court of Appeals and other appellate bodies and also presents the views of Legal Aid as a friend of the court. He assists in the development and presentation of legal theories by Legal Aid attorneys at the administrative and trial court levels.

Jonathan received his B.A. summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Yale University and received his J.D. from Stanford University, where he received the Order of the Coif and was an editor of the Stanford Law Review. After graduating from Law School, Jonathan clerked first for the Honorable William Wayne Justice on the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas and then for the Honorable Judith W. Rogers on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

Thank you to Jonathan for sharing this important appellate law update with the legal services community!
