I am very grateful that for the last thirty years, I have had the privilege of representing thousands of clients, each of whom faithfully entrusted me with their very serious legal matter. There is nothing more important to me when I'm finished representing a client in their case than to know that I did my absolute best for that particular client. The legal representation of a client in a serious criminal or civil case is often very grueling and it is certainly not for the faint of heart. The trial of a case can be analogized to a form of combat which takes place in the courtroom. As a history buff, I have always admired the great generals in war, but my favorite is Robert E. Lee from the American Civil War. He realized that to win in real combat you must have a carefully thought- out plan, always be on the offensive, keep the momentum and strike your opponent fast and hard. I always try to employ those very same tactics in the courtroom to win for my clients. I also know how to be a hard negotiator when necessary. My career has a lawyer so far has been very fulfilling and I love the challenge of continuing to learn and honing my trial skills. I look forward to hopefully many more gratifying years to come of helping my valued clients. Sincerely, John I. McMahon, Jr., Esquire

Trust worthy and an amazing lawyer
I've used Mr. McMahon on several occasions to the point I have his personal cell number. He's never once gave me false hope on a situation but always produced positive outcome.

He's a bum
John McMahon is a bum. He's one of the worst lawyers in Montgomery County. DO NOT...I REPEAT DO NOT GIVE THIS BUM YOUR MONEY. He will take full advantage of you and in his words "feed you to the wolves" and that's exactly what he did to me. My case was an open and shut one but the bum was so busy not...
Unfortunately some clients have completely unrealistic expectations and do not realize how lucky they are to receive a probation sentence on a case which almost always carries a jail sentence. Often such clients think they know more about the law, evidence and evaluating cases than their lawyer. Their best thinking got them into the trouble in the first place.
