Jonathan Mercer is a Partner at Bronfman Law and focuses on commercial disputes, contract claims, injunctions, and trial work. He represents companies and business owners in matters that require clear analysis, steady judgment, and a practical litigation plan. Jonathan works with clients at each stage of a dispute, from early assessment through discovery, motion practice, settlement discussions, and trial.
Jonathan's work often involves breach of contract claims, business torts, restrictive covenant disputes, partnership and ownership conflicts, and emergency requests for temporary restraining orders or injunctions. He is accustomed to matters where the facts are technical, the documents are extensive, or the business impact is immediate. His approach is direct: identify the pressure points, protect the record, and prepare the case for the next decision.
As part of the firm's Civil Litigation practice, Jonathan collaborates with attorneys across Bronfman Law's intellectual property and technology practices when disputes involve software, licensing, online platforms, confidential information, or brand rights.
