Superior Service

We went to several estate planning seminars but liked what John Potter had to say. He always returned our calls, very easy to talk to and was very helpful. We think he had our best interest at heart. I would recommend him to anyone.

He colored us with our merriest and reassured us courteously with our visits. Our questions were answered without hesita...tion and John’s professionalism reassured us that our decision to let Potter Law Firm handle our trust was the right decision.

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.
