      Review John Amabile

      Great Defense Lawyer

      Posted by

      John is super experienced. He knows how the system works and he explains things clearly. I hired him personally and I have recommended him on three separate occasions to friends who needed a lawyer. In all cases the result was better than expected. John is great combination of professional and personable. I whole heartedly recommend John Amabile.
