John Joseph Robertson

I am a long-time resident of Blacksburg. John Robertson has been an invaluable legal resource for me and, I expect, also for many others in our community. In short, John’s legal services are not just standard forms. Issues such as property, custody, or contracts are critical issues in one’s perso...nal or business life and they demand attention to details. When I have gone to John for legal assistance, his response is, “OK, let’s work on this together.” And here’s another thing with John. I was recently out of state and needed a Power of Attorney on less than an hour’s notice. John was familiar with the situation and so within minutes a tailored document was in my phone inbox and ready to print. I call that “going above and beyond.” John has been a legal resource for me for 11 years and his responsiveness and ready knowledge of the vast world of legal matters is impeccable.

I suppose he is overworked or just too busy. after 3 voicemails left on his phone, and 5 emails to his website, basically pleading towards the last, to at least return my calls or email and tell me to buzz off or whatever but he could not even bother to do that. We were basically beat up in montgomer...y county court named as a defendant in a litigation for unpaid rent late fees, as well as eviction from mobile home park by brand new owners over severe rent hike and ignorant and mean rules package. as the defendant I did not get to say but only 1 word, yes or no on amount owed. I was trying to find out where to pay your rent while litigation over rules took place but no answers from him. BTW it is paid 3rd floor court house called registry if anyone needs this info like I did. but you gotta give landlords 30 days notice by certified mail that their rent is being paid there and why. information that would definately kept us from a 10 day eviction which is complete horsepuckey because it was never about the normal rent money which is all they were awarded anyway. but after being late on rent only twice in 14 + years we were booted anyway. thanks there mr. robertson for all your help. NOT!!!!!!!

I called Mr. Robertson seeking guidance related to my college student's legal issues. Mr. Robertson promptly took the call and explained the charges, court proceedings and possible outcomes. He was knowledgeable, extremely helpful and very pleasant during his free consultation. I do not need t...o retain his legal services at this time. If needed in the future, I will definitely hire Mr. Robertson.

I hired John as a criminal defense lawyer for a small drug offense. From start to finish, he was extremely helpful and patiently answered my questions about the law, my offense, and court procedures. Even after he received my payment, he was willing to meet and discuss options moving forward. John's ...rates were fair, and he was very easy to communicate with. In the end, my charges were dropped and I can get the incident expunged from my record less than a year after it took place. As a college student, it is not easy to afford such quality legal advice. But Mr. Robertson's service was completely worth it, as he eased the financial and personal pain inherent in any legal issue. I would 100% recommend John Robertson to my friends and family, as his service was completely exceptional.

Recently I was involved in a traffic accident with a county vehicle, however, because the other driver did not stop I did not stop to report the incident. Once I realized I could be charged with leaving the scene of an accident or worse, I called a friend who referred me to John. John took my call af...ter business hours (as he was about to leave the office). He patiently discussed my situation and helped me calm down and assess my options, providing insight supported by a clear understanding of the applicable law and the possible outcomes of my situation. Based on his advice, I was able to quickly address the situation. I can honestly say that he was a lifesaver, could not have been more sympathetic, courteous, or helpful, and without his advice the situation would almost certainly have gotten worse instead of better. I wholeheartedly recommend John to anyone in need of legal advice.
