John and his team are amazing! As a 21 year old at the time- I had been the passenger in a car accident resulting in some serious injuries. After 4 months of getting absolutely no where with the insurance company, I decided to start looking around for lawyers. BBCRD (johns firm) had been recommended ...

We needed to find a qualified attorney who was knowledgeable about possession of alcohol by a minor in the state of NH. Not being a NH resident, we searched online and spoke with several attorneys. It was very clear after discussing our situation with John that he was, by far, the best choice. We wer...

John accomplished more than I expected on my case. I was thrilled with the outcome and it took much less time than expected. I hope I will not need him again but I highly recommend him to anyone who has a driving issue in NH.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Attorneys Matt Cox and John Durkin. We were extremely satisfied with both the level of professionalism and quality of service with which we were provided. From our initial contact, all of our questions were addressed thoroughly and promptly. Any time we ha...
"I have known John Durkin since 1995, when we worked alongside each other and tried cases together in the seacoast area of NH. I have watched him try jury trials, I have strategized with him during the defense of difficult cases, and I can say without reservation that he is one of the best litigators - civil or criminal - in all of NH. When I have a legal or tactical question, I call him. He has the three qualities that make him an excellent litigator: he understands how to make the law work for him, he is an excellent tactician, and he has the gift of persuasion - the ability to persuade initially-skeptical prosecutors, judges and juries to come over to his point of view. The ability to persuade them that a verdict for his client is a verdict for justice. If a close friend or loved one of mine was in trouble with the law, or was injured by a careless jerk, I would recommend they go see John Durkin."
"John is an experienced, intelligent lawyer who gets great results for his clients. When conflicts prevent me from handling a case in Dover, Portsmouth or Rochester, I give clients John's name. I strongly recommend him for any criminal, DUI, or personal injury matter."
"John is a true professional who possesses the skill, knowledge, and experience to help when facing criminal charges. If you are in trouble in the Dover area call him."
