I am a senior citizen who was involved in a car accident and charged with a traffic ticket. I do not believe I was guilty of the charge and I didn't want my insurance cancelled. Mr. Forehand resolved this case for me. He was professional and made this a good and peaceful experience.

My young son was going too fast taking a girl home and got a speeding ticket. We race cars and operate equipment so I couldn't afford to have this ticket sent in to insurance. Attorney J. Forehand got it dismissed. I have been from coast to coast and this attorney and his staff are excellent. Thank you so much for helping me and my family. You guys are the best!

I meet Mr. Forehand when he was on the other side of a case.
Later I hired him in my divorce.He really came through for me in a timely manner. I felt like he was a pitt bull in the court room. He really fought for me and knows what to focus on.

I was charged with a city ordinance violation involving a dispute at work with a co-worker. Although I was the one who was attacked we both got charged. Mr. Forehand had the video tape reviewed by the prosecutor before trial which resulted in my case being dismissed quickly.

After hiring Mr. Forehand for my case there was little I had to do. He and his staff took care of everything. I felt little to no stress during the process which took about 9 months.

Jon represented me in my contested divorce and a prior legal separation. As a law enforcement officer, I had the chance to see Jon work in court many times before I hired him. I was called up for military duty during the litigation and stationed overseas but the firm helped me get this resolved. The staff was very pleasant and extremely helpful.
Posted by CJ, a Criminal Defense client, Flag
Mr. Jon is very knowledgeable, informative and sympathetic. He was very effective in court. Highly recommended.

I have never been in trouble before. As a senior citizen I was very embarrassed when a simple burned out tag light landed me in jail for DUI. I don't mind paying a fine but to be accused of something when I KNOW I am not guilty is another story.
I was so angry when I was asked to give a breath sample and taken to jail but I consented and when the results where questionable I asked for a blood test as I heard you should do under these circumstances. I was told I could get my own test when I was released but at that point it seemed useless. When I got out, I hired Mr. Forehand to handle this matter and he did a great job.
Mr. Forehand explained to me later that the breath test results could not be used against me since I was not given a chance to have my own test to fight the breath test results. He also showed the court that there was no evidence of me being an unsafe driver. He got the DUI dismissed and I got my license back.

I was traveling through Moultrie from out of town when I got pulled for a traffic violation. One thing lead to another and I ended up being charged with a DUI and other charges. My license was suspended also.
Mr. Forehand did a great job of representing me. He got the DUI charge reduced and the other charges dropped. I even got my license back the day after court. I am a very happy man.

Posted by Florida Resident, a DUI client, Flag
Mr. Forehand has been a god-send for me and my family. I used poor judgment and drove after I had been drinking. Turned out that I might have been better off staying in the bad situation I was in, because it got worse. I was arrested for DUI in October 2009. Having never been arrested before, I had no idea what to expect. I was referred to Mr. Forehand by an attorney in my hometown in Florida. Mr. Forehand met with me and my wife and explained the entire process to us and vowed to help in anyway he could. True to his word, he managed to get my DUI charged dismissed and I was charged with wreckless driving. Thanks to Mr. Forehand and his knowledge I now have a second chance at a driving record free of a DUI charge.
Posted by Wanda, a Criminal Defense client, Flag
In the midst of personal issues I drove after having had too much to drink. The police saw me swerve. Unfortunately, after I pulled over I backed into the police car which had just been put into service that day. I hired Mr. Forehand and he got the DUI reduced. I have been to rehab and I am glad to have a second chance. I recommend him.
Posted by Kay, a Criminal Defense client, Flag
My daughter was charged with DUI and other offenses. We heard from several sources that Mr. Forehand was a good attorney. When we met he took the time to explain the process so that we could understand. Although this was a very complicated matter, he made everything clear and simple. After investigating our case, Mr. Forehand found a problem with the case that made all the difference. At trial he pointed out this problem to the Judge and got the Judge to agree to dismiss the DUI and open container so my daughter was left with two city ordinance violations. This saved her from jail time, kept her license and saved our insurance. I was very happy with the outcome of the case
Posted by Jacqueline, a Personal Injury client, Flag
Mr. Forehand was chosen to serve as local counsel by the national firm I hired after I was seriously injured by prescription medicine. The case was very complicated particularly after the FDA recalled the drug then later returned the drug to use. Mr. Forehand took the lead in my case. Thanks to his help the case settled after mediation but before trial.
Mr. Forehand gave me everything that was coming to me! He is an amazing man. I will always honor and respect him for what he did to help me. I will bring all my legal matters to him and tell others. I am a walking commercial for his firm.

I would rate Mr. Jon 5 stars plus and higher. He is very efficient at what he does. We have used him before and each time he has helped my grandson get back on track. I have a lot of faith in him and I trust him. I was very well pleased with the service and results.

Mr. Jon represented me in a divorce action that was contested for over two years. Custody of my son and ownership of my home and farm were at stake. As a father, my child means the world to me. Everything worked out the way I wanted. I was designated primary custodian of my son. I also received child support and ownership of my home and farm. Mr. Jon worked hard for me and did a fine job presenting my side at trial. I am thankful for the result and I do not know how to fully express my appreciation.

Mr . Jon represented me in a false drug charge. I hitched a ride with a friend who got pulled over and when he opened the glove box to give the cop his insurance and registration a baggie of marijuana was right in front of me. I got arrested and taken to jail even though it was not mine. At trial my friend was convicted but Mr. Jon got my charge dismissed. I was offered a plea bargain by the prosecutor but Mr. Jon advised me not to take any deal. I was very scared but Mr. Jon helped me make it through this ordeal. I am very happy with the result.

I found myself in a very difficult relationship with the father of my children and I ended up the victim of domestic abuse. With a broken arm I had no where to turn which lead me to steal medical supplies. I know now I could have received help in other ways but I felt scared and hopeless.
I got caught. I was facing mandatory jail time and worried how this would affect me and my kids.
I thought I would have to face this trial alone but Mr. Forehand helped me.
Fortunately he got the theft charge reduced which gave me a second chance.
His staff was very good with me. What he did and how he cared about my situation means the world to me.

Mr. Forehand has been my family's attorney for years. Recently he represented me in two cases including a case involving injuries I received in a car crash. Mr. Forehand did a good job of representing me in court. He got the policy limits from the other person's insurance and also collected benefits from our insurance company.

I first met Jon when I contacted him for a free consultation about my divorce. Later I developed a life threatening heart condition after I took prescription medications prescribed by my doctor. Again I came to Jon for help. My case took years to resolve but Jon and the team he assembled fought for me the whole way. We settled the case at mediation for a HUGE amount. This allowed me to have the surgery I needed and continue my life. I send everyone to Jon. We are friends to this day.

I have been a law abiding citizen all my life and I never dreamed I would need an attorney to defend me from false accusations. My world changed last year when the police received an anonymous report against me. I will probably never be able to prove who did this to me but thank God I had Mr. Forehand defending me. I had never used him before but he was recommended by my family attorney. From the first time we sat down, Mr. Forehand promised to fight for me. He did just that every step of the way. His investigation of this case convinced the prosecutor to drop the charge against me. This incident robbed me of peace for about a year but Mr. Forehand and his assistant lifted my spirits. Mr. Forehand's efforts helped me restore my faith in our legal system. This was the most devastating experience of my life and my attorney was the only bright spot. I appreciate everything he did for me so I can move on with my life.

Mr. Forehand and his staff were very helpful and kind. I have a drinking problem that caused me to be charged with DUI. Mr. Forehand was able to point out problems with the case to the prosecutor which led to the charge being reduced.
Mr. Forehand and his staff answered all my questions. I have already referred others to his office for legal help.
Since this case was resolved Mr. Forehand encouraged me to follow-up with AA. He also encouraged me to get back in church. I am not drinking. My life has changed so much for the better. I am back with my wife. I kept my driver's license and job.

I recently called Mr. Forehand to ask him to help a friend of mine who is having trouble getting custody of a grandchild. Our conversation made me think of how much he helped my family in a criminal case involving my grandson. My grandson has had many mental and emotional problems over the years that led to trouble with the law. Mr. Forehand helped us resolve the criminal case and get help for my grandson. During this process my husband died and Mr. Forehand was kind enough to forgive the unpaid balance. His compassion, understanding and skill were amazing. My grandson is doing fine now and I just wanted to take a moment to thank Mr. Forehand again.

Jon has served as General Legal Counsel for the South Georgia Church of God State offices for years. In this time he has assisted many local pastors with legal questions, myself included. Jon helped me with a church property matter years ago and recently advised me about a youth protection issue. He came highly recommended by the State office and our National Legal Counsel. Each time I have consulted Jon he has been very helpful.

Jon just finished my felony case. I hired him because I wanted an attorney outside of the small town where this occurred. He won a motion to suppress that dramatically changed the outcome of the matter. He and his staff were excellent and very caring. I was very pleased with the result.
This was a long process and at one point I felt out of the loop but Jon quickly responded and answered my questions.
I was impressed with the respect that Jon received from the Court and courtroom officials.
I was also pleased that Jon refunded part of the fee because of my financial circumstances.
I recommend him.

Mr. Forehand has handled my divorce in September 2006. The situation was very involved and I had many questions. Mr. Forehand was confident and informative. Which made me feel more at peace.

He was very knowledgable

Jon handled my case effectivly. The only issues I have with him is in how he handles his fee collections. He worked on my divorce for almost 2 years, and never sent me a current bill. I figured that if his work was in excess of my retainer he would of alerted me of this and allowed me to pay as we went. When I received the final bill I was very surprised to say the least. It was many thousands more than my retainer. Less than a month later, he had already sent me 2 threating emails asking for the amount to be paid in full "or else" he would take further actions. I thought we had developed a good working relationship over the time we had worked together but he was not willing to work with me on getting his fees paid in a resonable manner. I have no issues paying him, but I dont need the nasty emails and letters. I just went though a divorce, my finances arent exactly where they should be becuase of it. Becuase of this I wouldnt use him again. He should of either updated me as the case progressed or should be a little more patient now that it is over. This is my first time ever haveing to use a lawyer and I can see why they have thier reputation. I tried to make resonable arragements with him and all I get from him is dirty, collection agency type letters. Buisness is buisness and I guess he will do what he feels is write, and so will I.
