The Penrose Triangle
The Penrose Triangle is an impossible object—an optical illusion that can be depicted in a drawing but cannot exist as a solid, three-dimensional object.
Why the Impossible Triangle?
The impossible triangle is what it feels like to be embroiled in litigation—once you are on the triangle, it is impossible to get off!
How Can We Help?
We understand the frustration of being trapped in ongoing litigation and are committed to helping you break free from the endless cycle. Our goal is to alleviate your stress so you can return to focusing on what truly matters in life—your family, friends, and work.
No nonsense style
“Jonathan has assisted us with a few matters. Each of these matters is now settled. I respect Jonathan’s no nonsense style, and focus on net return after time and fees. The main focus is outcomes – not litigation.“
Continuing, caring support
Jonathan listened carefully and gave calm, knowledgeable advice with continuing, caring support, not just an impersonal, rigid ‘inflexible’ approach to the matter.
The outcome was amicable, meeting our expectations with a ‘minimal worry’ process and a good final solution.
We confidently recommend Jonathan for provision of legal services.”
