An attorney you can have trust and faith in.

John, handled my divorce case. Like in other comments I have never had much of a need to hirer an attorney but after consulting two other attorneys the left me wondering what I am I getting myself into I was happy I pressed on and call John. After the first phone call I could just tell John was the r...ight fit and completely understood what I wanted to do. His price was extremely reasonable as well. I would highly recommend him.

I highly recommend John if you are in need of an attorney.

I was a client of John's. I know personally going to see an attorney is something that I don't do very often (And I assume you don't either). It can be an intimidating process - thinking about will this person watch out for me, are they going to be fair, and ultimately are they going to take care ...of what they need for me. In each and everyone of these aspects John excelled for me, where I felt comfortable that my issue was in good hands, that it would be taken care of, and that he wouldn't try to gouge me on Attorney fee's. If you are looking for legal services I really put my recommendation behind John, and suggest you contact him to get through any legal services you are need of with a skilled advisor.

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Apr 18

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I met John during a meeting of creditors in bankruptcy court, when I had been practicing for only about six months. He told me that he knew my father, and that when John had first started in bankruptcy, my father helped him out a couple of times. John told me that any time I have questions, I can ask him for some input, and that has absolutely proven to be true. Any time I have a question concerning bankruptcy practice, whether it's about the law or the business end of such a practice, there's no question that I can count on John's input to help me out. He has proven an invaluable colleague as I start down the road to practicing bankruptcy."

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.
