Amazing person to have on your side!

John was amazing to work with. He conducted himself in a manner that is aligned with our family principles of integrity, humility, and justice. He is the type of person that will make you feel like you've known him for many years, the first time you meet him. John helped us through a difficult tim...e with our son and justice was served. I really appreciated his approach to the situation and was extremely proud to have him on our team. Hopefully we'll never need him to help us again, but if we're ever in a similar situation, John will be our unequivocal choice. On a side note his administrative assitant was wonderful to work with and always went above and beyond in any way she could to help. The Waldron team is one that truly cares about you and makes helping you a priority. There's warmth in every interaction with them. These are good people

Terrible Lawyer

John is living off his past reputation of being a reputable lawyer, unfortunately that was a long time ago. He forgot to contact the Magistrate for the setting of my bond hearing, was late for sentencing and didn't say a word or defend me at all had to get a new attorney its a a shame he can take yo...ur money up front and then proceed not to do anything. there should be consequences for that

Not as Good as He Once Was

Unfortunately, I hired Mr. Waldron based on his reputation. He forgot to appear at the preliminary hearing. It had to be rescheduled. Then, for 6 months he did absolutely nothing. I went and got a new attorney.

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.
