About Jonathan B
Jonathan B Vivona moved from the study of markets to the study of law. He earned a B.A. in Economics from Washington University in St. Louis in 2005 and completed his J.D. at George Mason University School of Law in 2011. Those two strands—numbers and rules—shape how he approaches legal work.
After law school, Vivona began his practice in Virginia. He is licensed to practice in that jurisdiction and maintains professional memberships that keep him connected to the legal community. Those ties provide a steady stream of updates on changes in state law and procedure.
His training in economics informs his legal reasoning. He tends to analyze legal problems by breaking them into discrete elements and weighing costs and benefits. That analytic habit has guided his work in state matters and in advising clients who must make practical decisions under legal constraints.
Colleagues describe him as precise in legal writing and careful in courtroom preparation. He writes plainly. He prepares thoroughly. He prioritizes clarity when explaining legal options to clients. Those qualities help when statutes are complex or when a case turns on fine factual distinctions.
Vivona's practice has kept him engaged with issues that arise under Virginia law. He has experience moving matters through state processes and appearing before local tribunals. He also assists clients who need guidance on regulatory and compliance questions that affect daily operations.
He is based in Virginia and continues to work on matters that require knowledge of the state's legal landscape. He currently handles a range of matters arising under Virginia law.
