About John
Biography
***** Greetings to my valued clients and friends!
After over 30 years of law practice, I have decided to retire from the practice of law.
I started to wind down my practice in October 2017 and have nearly completed all of my existing cases.
I am privileged and grateful to have had you as my clients and friends.
Thank you again for trusting me to provide you with legal services.
John Suda
Problem Solving
That's what I do. I have been fixing legal and financial problems for consumers, families, and workers for over 30 years as a Senior Staff Attorney with the (formerly) world's largest pre-paid legal services program, the UAW Legal Services Plans.
Over those years I've handled a range of legal matters from complex civil litigation, to bankruptcies and debtor/creditor rights matters, to elder law issues like nursing home planning, and more.
My Approach
I try to inform, counsel, and empower regular folks (i.e., consumers, families, workers) to not only get what they need in an often complex, difficult, and indifferent world but to understand how they can help themselves.
I Can Help
Let me help you obtain the rights, remedies, and respect you need and deserve, at affordable prices for most people.
My Philosophy
My intentions are to run a modern, technologically-efficient, and productive practice keeping overhead down in order to provide legal services to my clients at low cost
New
I am now handling"quick resolutions" matters- answers and guidance for simple issues -at low cost! As low as $45 per resolution call/letter/document review.

Straight forward and honest
Recently a financial legal issue turned my life upside down. Unsure of my options I called a handful of attorneys and found that they would talk in circles and try to sell me on solutions that I think benefited them more than I. Not with Mr. Suda. From the start he was straight forward with me and...
