From a criminal defence client.

A definite recommendation. Mr. McCaffery was professional. I appreciated his honesty and without his knowledge of the law and the legal system I'm certain the outcome of my case would have been much worse for me.

A definite recommendation

John is professional and to the point. I appreciate his candor, perspective and knowledge. While I am still in the middle of my case; I am confident it will proceed as quickly as is (legally) possible! :) Thank you, John. I have already recommended you!

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.
