Job Well Done

I never thought for a second I would have to get a laywer for anything in my life but I was totally wrong and I came across John online during a search. I called him right away to discuss the situation at hand, and right there I felt from that first call to him we would keep him fromstart to finish...d. I would defindently recommend him to everyone that needs a laywer on their side for what ever it may be at that time. I am greatful for his services and I am glad to have met him.

Great Job

John had to represent us in a court matter. He fought for our rights and what was fair and just. He kept us informed of all the things that could happen. He came to court very prepared for any situation that could arise. Thanks again Jack.

Very Helpful

John took on this case in the middle. He had a lot of mistakes to correct from a previous attorney. John was very knowledgable and helpful. He kept us well informed as to where the case stood. If you need an attorney we HIGHLY RECOMMEND John Ferry.

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.
