About Jonathan D.
Jonathan D. Singer combined business training and legal education into a single career path. He began at Cornell University, earning a B.S. in Applied Economics and Business Management in 1994. He later completed an MBA in Finance and Business Management at New York University’s Leonard N. Stern School of Business in 1999. He returned to school for a J.D. from Rutgers University Law School, finishing in 2009.
Those academic years underpin the shape of his practice. Singer moved into private practice after law school and practices at Singer Riviere Law Group. He is admitted to the bars of New York and New Jersey and is authorized to appear in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. He holds current memberships in the New York State Bar and the New Jersey State Bar.
His early education in economics and business informs how he handles cases. That background helps in evaluating financial records, preparing economic analyses, and communicating complex numbers plainly to clients and juries. The later legal training brought courtroom skills and a grounding in litigation practice.
Singer maintains ties to professional organizations beyond the state bars. He is a member of the New Jersey Association for Justice, the Monmouth County Bar Association, and the New York State Trial Lawyers Association. Those memberships keep him engaged with peers and current issues in trial practice and civil litigation across two states.
Colleagues describe his approach as methodical. He breaks problems into parts. He emphasizes preparation and clarity in hearings and filings. He works from the facts and from documents, and he expects the work to be reflected in the record he builds for each matter.
Singer keeps an office in Jackson, which serves as a base for his regional practice. He appears in state and federal courts in New Jersey and New York and handles matters that require understanding both business context and litigation mechanics. His clients come from a mix of individuals and businesses.
He continues to practice at Singer Riviere Law Group and remains an active member of the legal communities in New York and New Jersey. His current practice focuses on civil litigation matters that draw on his combined business and legal background.
