Couldn't Have Asked for a Better Attorney!

John has become my trusted advisor guiding me through some of the most difficult marital and child custody issues. He listens carefully, provides helpful recommendations, and follows through on everything discussed. John is very conscientious and on multiple occasions has gone out of his way to do ...exactly what was needed and not over bill me. I am very grateful to have found him and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Excellent Lawyer

Nothing is more frightening and frustrating than being involved in a legal transaction unless your attorney is patient, understanding and compassionate. I hired John to represent me in my divorce. He was thorough and did a great job of dealing with my wife’s attorney. He handled some complicated fin...ancial agreements between us. I Highly recommend John!

Dream Team!!

John and Christina are the absolute Dream Team! They handled my defense in a case my ex brought against me for cohabitation. The case included Private Investigator evidence and 3 witnesses, all of which were there to testify against me. John and Christina were outstanding. One by one picking apart... the witnesses and making the Private Investigators look foolish by asking questions that proved they had not done their case, could not remember facts they should know, and showed they did not provide any evidence of cohabitation. Their whole preparation in advance of the case proved they knew how to pick apart each accusation, make witnesses discredit themselves by changing their stories, and get virtually all of the Private investigators evidence thrown out! By far the best experience in what looked like the most challenging case going in. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I'd give 100 stars if I could.

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.
