Wonderful Attorney
I got myself neck deep in trying to handle legal matters on my own (Twice). Attorney Rauseo dug me out of the hole and negotiated an equitable settlement (Twice). John is a godsend, a fair man that truly cares for his client's wellbeing

Mr.
Attorney John Rauseo helped my wife and I through a difficult time, making my experience as positive as possible. John was up front and informative during our consultation and made us feel at ease. What could have been a long drawn-out process was handled as timely as possible. Attorney Rauseo is knowledgeable. He was compassionate, honest and thorough. I never felt uninformed or rushed to make any decisions. We would highly recommend him.

Very nice and empathetic
John clearly understood my desire to keep my divorce as amicable as possible and worked diligently to create a settlement that was agreeable. His approach is highly mediative, which is what I was looking for.

Genuine & Compassionate!
Attorney Rauseo helped me through a difficult time, making my experience "positive" and quick! What could have been a long drawn-out process was actually much faster than originally anticipated. Attorney Rauseo is knowledgeable, compassionate, honest and thorough. I never felt intimidated or rushed. A great experience!

John is an expert, caring and very professional
I can't thank John enough for his professionalism, expertise, and diligence with the handling of my divorce. John's guidance through this painful and time consuming process was very much appreciated. I naively believed that I could handle the complexities of the divorce on my own; unfortunately I was very much wrong and started down a painfully long and expensive path that was woefully over my head. After my initial contact with John, I felt relieved and appreciated his understanding and time spent walking me through each step of the process and bringing the matter to closure. I am most appreciative of his ability to recognize my wishes as they related to my children and ex-wife and the support they needed as well.

Excellent Lawyer
My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of working with Attorney John Rauseo for the purchasing of our first place. John helped us every step of the way and made the process very easy. He even helped us find my buyer’s agent who was wonderful to work with. John was quick to respond to our emails and phone calls and excellent at following up. He kept us informed every step of the way and even went above and beyond to do his own research to ensure we were getting the best loan rate and even searched comparables on our condo to ensure we did not overpay for it. John is very passionate about what he does and it shows in his work and relationships he creates with his clients.

Excellent & Dependable Attorney
John did an excellent job explaining the law pertaining to child custody. He exhibited honesty and professionalism and was always available which helped ease the anxiety that sometimes comes with change. I felt confident in his ability to get the job done in a timely matter. He also showed the patience needed to get the right result. His experience as a family lawyer is a great asset for his clients. My experience with John Rauseo was 100 % positive and I would recommend him to anyone that is need of an excellent attorney.

Excellent Family practice Attorney
Attorney Rauseo has handled a number of items for me including my divorce, will, healthcare proxy, to LLC creation. He is very honest and fair and always he believes every issue has a resolution acceptable to all.

Low Key, High Touch Law Practice
John represented me in my divorce in 2008-2009 and was able to negotiate a settlement for me just before the day of the trail. He did a good job of representing my interests, providing valuable counsel and pragmatic advice when needed. He was the voice of reason in an understandably emotional, tense and fractious environment. John proved to me you don't necessarily need a "specialist" for a particular type of litigation (in this case family law); a good lawyer with thorough preparation and an eye for detail can sometimes do just as good if not a better job.
