About Jonathan A
Jonathan A Eller earned his law degree from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in 2019 after completing undergraduate study at Brigham Young University–Idaho in 2016. He completed a Mediation Certificate through the University of Nebraska College of Law, complementing his academic grounding in bankruptcy law. Those credentials set the stage for a steady rise in a single practice group rather than a series of moves between firms.
He began at Lepant Law Office as a law clerk in 2017 while finishing law school. After graduation he joined the firm as an associate in 2019 and became a partner in 2020. The chronology is straightforward. He grew into increasing responsibility at the same firm and now shares leadership duties there. Records also list an office affiliation under the name Scwab & Lepant.
Eller is admitted to practice in both Kansas and Nebraska. He has been a member of the Kansas State Bar Association since 2019. He joined the American Bankruptcy Institute in 2017 and maintains that membership. Those professional ties mirror the practical experience he accumulated handling cases and managing client matters inside a small-firm environment.
His background in bankruptcy at law school and early membership in the American Bankruptcy Institute suggest a steady interest in debtor-creditor work. He also holds formal training in mediation, which he has applied in settlement discussions and alternative dispute resolution. Colleagues and court dockets indicate he balances courtroom appearances with negotiated resolutions when the circumstances call for them.
The practical arc of his career is familiar: classroom study, hands-on clerkship, then ascending roles within one firm. That pathway gave him repeated exposure to the same practice area and the same local rules and judges in the region. It also placed him in roles that require both case preparation and client counseling.
Today he is a partner at Lepant Law Office, CP, LLO, operating from the firm offices listed under both Lepant Law Office and Scwab & Lepant. His practice centers on bankruptcy matters, creditor-debtor issues, and mediation services related to those disputes.
