a happy client

John Whitbeck is an excellent lawyer, and I was so thankful to have him as my divorce lawyer. What impressed me during my initial consultation was that he came up with a plan after listening to my story. He is a passionate defender toward his clients, and he will keep you focused on the important iss...ues and give you sound, legal advice. My advice to those that are divorcing is this: try to be fair and do what is right even when things are difficult, and hire John Whitbeck as your attorney.

Highly Recommend Mr. Whitbeck

John is both an incredible lawyer and person. He's extremely knowledgable and fights for your family. John handled my child custody and divorce and I highly recommend him. He's extremely trustworthy and cares about what's in the best interest for you and your child. His entire office is very efficien...t. I would highly recommend him if you are dealing with a complicated child custody situation or a divorce.

Very helpful

I used this law office for my divorce. I had hired an attorney prior to seeing John Whitbeck but kept having a gut feeling I was not getting the best advice. My gut proved to be correct after moving over to Mr. Whitbeck. Very professional and knowledgeable!

Highly Recommend John and his firm

I have to admit that I'm really surprised by the previous reviews of John Whitbeck and his firm. I found John and the supporting cast in his firm to be nothing but professional, reliable, flexible, and extremely good at communicating the relevant facts of my case as often as was necessary. I hire...d John to handle my divorce and he routinely made himself available nights, weekends, and basically whenever I needed to discuss the details of my case. John fought hard to ensure I got a fair settlement without alienating my former spouse or the opposing attorney. In my experience, I found John to be extremely knowledgeable on the law and at the same time, very talented at discussing strategy and navigating what was an extremely complex, emotional, and time-consuming divorce. I would highly recommend John to anyone contemplating going through what I went through. Throughout the entire process, he was a true partner and a trusted advisor and really did a terrific job.

Posted by A Happy Child Custody Client | July 18, 2014 | Divorce & Separation

Child Custody

I hired John Whitbeck to handle my child custody case. I only wish I had John 1.5 years prior to my custody battle because he would have handled my divorce much differently than the attorney I had for that. John and his staff were attentive and always responded. My custody battle had to be the w...orst ever (at least in my opinion). John put the needs of my family first and foremost and fought an unbelievable battle on our behalf and I won sole custody of my child. I have referred over 15+ clients to John and his firm and every single person has left pleased with the results. I have highly recommended him to so many. I continue to use John when needed.

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.
