Posted by Jennifer R. | January 31, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

Super Lawyer!

We had a problem with a contractor that took our money and stopped showing up on the job. Working with John saved my husband and I financially and saved our home construction project. He knew exactly which steps we needed to take in order to terminate our contract agreement and help get our funds bac...k. I would recommend him to anybody. He was a lifesaver!!!

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.
