Outstanding Attorney
From start to finish John was knowledgable, professional, and efficient. He worked diligently and ultimately got my case dismissed. John will be the first person I call if I have any future legal issues and I will recommend John to all of my friends and family. This is a 5 star attorney!

The very best
John Powers came to my rescue during a most desperate time. I first stumbled into his office after having just been wrongfully arrested and evicted from my home. John guided me through the crisis to eventual dismissal of my case. His impeccable knowledge of the criminal justice system allowed him to ...

Excellent results and great communication.
Mr. Powers provided nothing short of excellence in my defense case, he was able to utilize his experience and knowledge to provide the proof needed to have my case dismissed, he was able to prove that all the accusations made against me where false. I could not have asked for better results, I would ...
Thank you, Bobby. It was a pleasure achieving that result. You deserved every bit of that dismissal.

John Powers saved my life.
I was arrested for DWI in February of 2017, and as I spent the night in jail, I knew that I needed to find the best lawyer possible. I researched lawyers online, and decided on John Powers. This proved to be the best decision I have ever made. Powers got me a deal that can only be described as miracu...
"John is an aggressive and skilled advocate. if your life or liberty is on the line you want someone to fight for you and John will fight hard for you."
"Powers is a powerful lawyer and advocate! I met John while attending the National College for DUI Defense's summer session, which was recently hosted on the campus of Harvard's law school. I saw him in action and was most impressed with his work. I left with two thoughts: 1. If I was charged with a crime in his practice area, he would be my first call for representation; and 2. I need to add his name to my rolodex for potential client referrals. If you are in trouble and need some legal help, give John a call."
"I have had the pleasure of knowing John for over a decade and know him to be a skilled, diligent, and zealous advocate for his clients. I have referred him criminal cases in the past and would not hesitate to do so again in the future. John is an excellent lawyer who fights hard for his clients."
