Strong attorney

I am sorry you had a bad experience with John McGrath. Although he may take a while to respond (that is because he truly cares about parents and spreads himself thin, answering everyone's questions and trying to help them), he did an amazing job with my case and got us everything we asked for, and n...eeded for our child. He is strong, convincing, self assured, with a great confidence which is exactly what clients in our stressed out situation need. I would not have gotten what I needed if it weren't for John McGrath.

Poor attorney

I hired John McGrath to represent me in court. He did not meet the terms of our contract. He failed to meet court deadlines and my case was never heard. He did not respond to my inquiries. I would not hire him again.
