Upstanding attorney

I hired John to clear up title on my home so that I could sell it. As we learned more about the file, the work had to be modified. John communicated clearly, kept us informed and provided a good sense that he was treating us very fairly.

Saved our home! Excellent attorney.

We went to John when we were about to lose our home to foreclosure. Not only was he able to stop the foreclosure, we were able to get caught back up on our mortgage in a Chapter 13 plan, and have been able to keep our family home. He explained everything to us in detail as the case moved forward a...nd always told us what we could expect. He held our hands the entire way. We would recommend him to anybody facing the loss of their home.

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.
