Criminal Defense • Covington, Kentucky

Responsive, Zealous Defender of the Accused

When people in challenging positions entrust their criminal defense cases to me, I give 100 percent of my determined, knowledgeable, and creative efforts to pursuing and obtaining the most favorable outcome possible for each one.

To schedule a consultation on a criminal charge such as DUI, white-collar crime, assault, theft, drug offenses, sex offenses, "Internet crimes," probation violations, child support violations, or criminal appeals, contact Jonathan M. Bruce.

As a felony prosecutor and former public defender with literally hundreds of criminal cases behind me, I have acquired a great variety of skills and experience that I draw from as I represent each client to the best of my ability.

My philosophy as a zealous advocate is always to be willing to go the extra mile for my clients. My rich background as a former Peace Corps volunteer has given me people skills and flexibility to customize my approach to the particular characteristics of any client's criminal case.

I make myself accessible and available to the people I represent. Together, we move together through the Kentucky or Ohio criminal justice systems in as positive a direction as possible, in pursuit of a hopeful result: case dismissed, reduced charges, reduced or eliminated jail time, and favorable probation terms as is appropriate to each case. When a guilty verdict cannot be avoided, I work hard to lessen the negative results in my clients' lives.

I am dedicated to keeping myself on the cutting edge of criminal defense law. I regularly engage in continuing legal education not because it is required, but because I am hungry for knowledge that will make me the best advocate I can be.

I enjoy doing in-depth legal research, which allows me to develop creative arguments on my clients' behalf. Judges appreciate my ability to communicate clearly and intelligently.

I speak Spanish fluently, which allows me to effectively represent Hispanic clients both in and out of court in Spanish. (I speak other foreign languages as well.)
