Professional, Knowledgeable and Cares About his Clients

I hold John Tasolides in the highest regard. His expertise crosses both criminal and civil law. He has represented and guided my family through some very difficult times. No problem is too big or small. He is a consummate professional, and cares about his clients. The level of concern and detail ...he shows is amazing. I highly recommend John Tasolides to all.

Good to Have Someone like him in your Corner

Mr Tasolides handled many matters for my family, real estate, traffic tickets, a criminal matter , pre Nup and divorce. He is smart, thorough, sympathetic but tough when he has to be.

Excellent Counsel

John represented me in a matter during a very difficult time in a domestic matter. His counsel was always level-headed and well thought out. He was diligent in preparing all court documents and provided results that I would not have thought possible when I hired him. I highly recommend him.

  • 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.
