Please avoid!!!

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!! If you’re looking for a good attorney, this is not the place. It’s actually embarrassing. I was referred by a family friend. My case was open/ close, we had a contract so I thought for sure my case would be resolved easily. No. 3 months and $1900 later, my case had ZERO PROGRES...S. He miss informed me or didn’t inform me of information just to milk me dry. Most of my bill was TRYING to get him to actually respond. Chat GBT works harder for free. After meeting with a NEW attorney, within 1 hour and only $600, I was helped and had more progress than the entire time spent with John Goots. It’s pathetic, not sure how he sleeps at night. Please do yourself a favor and hire someone else.

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.
