PMPA case

John Morgan successfully defended me from an unjust termination action from my supplier. To say the odds were against us would be quite an understatment, as we were in a very defensive position when I hired John. A short time later, we were on the offensive. John's skills as a strategist and litigat...or made the diference.

Executive Director

I have used John for over 11-years. His approach is very refreshing as he keeps you informed and gives you the facts even when you might not want to hear or believe them. He does not just say what you think you want to hear.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
