John Paul Velez

The company I work for needed a local attorney to handle drivers' tickets, fines, etc. We began using John for all of our local cases. Since we began using his services, the outcome has been more than favorable. A few of the cases were dismissed completely and the others were downgraded. John is ...extremely knowledgeable and personable. If you ever find yourself in need of a great attorney I would highly recommend giving John a call. If John cannot help you he will advise you on how you should proceed.

John handled my criminal case where I had a 1st degree case with heavy evidence built against me but still managed to get it downgraded to a 3rd degree. My case was extremely difficult considering I had been a repeat offender and the county sheriff department hated me. Initially the prosecutor wanted... to give me 3 years in prison with no parole. But with John's expertise he was able to get me drug court which is quite an arduous task considering I had a first degree. During this ordeal I was incarcerated and John was a big emotional support for my family and myself. He constantly made trips to visit me to discuss my case and make sure I was doing fine. Even during the gravest moments in my case he always maintained an aura of optimism and hope. Which can be critical for someone facing heavy prosecution. John was constantly on the phone with the prosecutors and making trips to the court on my behalf even though he had many cases to handle. John may be a very experienced lawyer but he still handles each case as passionately as if it were his first. Most lawyers are told not to form attachments to their clients, but John does anyway because he is a kind hearted individual and he will fight for you as if he were fighting for a family member. Having his representation on my case was priceless. If I ever fall into any predicament again I will always go to him. If anyone I know falls into legal tribulations John is always the first person I recommend. Because from first hand experience I know he will fight with the last fiber of his body on whichever case he takes up.

John Paul Velez is the main reason I'm home typing this review instead of being locked up. I was facing jail for repeat offenses of the same misdemeanor. There were several low cost attorneys talking about bringing my case to trial. That would've been legal suicide! Enter John Paul Velez, the game ch...anger. His knowledge and professionalism, along with solid working relationships at municipal court, delivered a happier outcome. Yes, reputable attorneys work hard and give effort for clients. The difference is Mr. Velez is genuinely well received in the local legal community. His rapport created dialogue with my oppostion. When faced with seemingly hostile pushback at that court, he delivered in the clutch. If you or someone you know are in a tough legal situation...I recommend John Paul Velez.
