Jonathan “Jono” Streit 

Jono has been practicing law since 2004. He is an experienced litigator with an impressive breadth of knowledge and experience—not to mention his lexicon of twenty-five cent words. His clients love him because he is strategic, meticulous, assertive, and entirely entertaining. Plus, his ability to smack your opponent around the courtroom is pure perfection.  

Although his reputation in Court precedes him, a little lesser-known fact about Jono is that he moonlights as a home chef and bartender at Château de la Streit. A foodie at heart, Jono knows the best places to eat (or drink) and although he does not claim the title, he is a food and cocktail snob if there ever was one.
