  • When I first started to pursue my case, Jonathan Porter was the only attorney I called (out of about 15) that would entertain it. He and his staff have been absolutely incredible to work with. Jonathan made me feel heard when everyone else wouldn’t even listen. I can’t recommend Porter Law Firm enough!

  • Jonathan and Cassidy are so amazing. They helped me out so much going through my divorce. I went through a divorce for almost 6 years. I used 2 previous lawyers that were terrible and I wish I hadn't ever used. I found Porter Law Firm and they were so awesome to work with. They were able to navigate my case and get it completely done where others couldn't come close. I was always able to reach someone about issues or questions I needed answers to. They respond super quickly which was great because things change from day to day specially in a messy divorce. I recommend Porter Law Firm to everyone for any of your Law needs.

  • I found Jonathan and his paralegal Cassidy while needing help correcting custody issues with my children. They both stepped into a situation that for me has been emotionally exhausting and they have been nothing more than amazing. They are both compassionate and caring while understanding the need for legal fairness and action. They have been very patient when I have anxiously reached out for reassurance or when I've asked a thousand questions. I was very impressed by the professional and respectful way they interacted with the mother of my children despite knowing the turbulent history of things. I have also been impressed by their concern for my children. Needing a lawyer is always difficult, but Jonathan and Cassidy have been an incredible asset and their help has been invaluable.

  • Highly Highly Highly Recommend!! Porter Law Firm is a first class office that is all in for their client from the time you first step foot into their office until your case is closed. Jon, Stephanie and Cassidy were very responsive (text, email or call) anytime I reached out which was critical during these stressing times/case. If you’re looking for a Divorce lawyer that truly cares about you and your needs, look no further. Fingers crossed that I never need them again, but if I do, my first call will always be to the Porter Law Firm. Thank you, Jon and team!!

  • Divorce case - I was in a hard spot with a firm that wasn't advocating for me and had already taken a huge chunk of my savings and equity from selling my marital home. I was heartbroken. I sent out a handful of new "contact us online" to different firms in Utah, and Jonathon Porter reached out to me almost instantly and we set up an in-person meeting. Less than a month after retaining Porter Law I already feel I am in better hands. I see the holes that were left open by my previous firm, and where Porter Law is picking up the pieces. They have been more proactive than the large firm I signed with from May - September. I wish I would have started here and saved my heartache and pocketbook from the beginning. If you are in a similar position, looking for new representation I highly suggest speaking with Jonathon. Even though my case is not complete, I truly look forward to working with Porter Law to until we are able to close this chapter. 12/26/2024 - UPDATE: From October when I first met with Porter Law I asked if we could get this done by the holidays and today I open up my email to see my divorce is FINAL and everything has concluded. I am so grateful to Porter Law and their diligence and communication that they had with me. My case wasn't rocket science, but felt like so from the other party. Jonathon and his staff kept things upbeat and positive and they got it done! Thank you Porter Law, you truly were a blessing during this time and I really wish I would have found you sooner!
