Dependable and Affordable

John offered a payment plan I could afford. I hired him for myself and two other family members. We all got good results. He was a lifesaver.

Just plain sad

I came to John for my divorce from my husband. I met with him twice for a total of one hour. We never got into details pertaining my case. He did reply to a summons I had, that was it! Me and my husband decided to agree on everything and drawled up papers with his lawyer. Before I had the chance ...to talk with John, he called me and left two rude messages stating that "I was in the wrong for not consulting him first,and that me and my husbands agreement was null and void because he wasn't involved (btw its preceding just fine), and also that he didn't know what me and my husband was up to!" Well last time I checked he worked for me!! I never been divorced and didn't know the correct protocol for lawyer etiquette, but I thought this was my divorce to handle as I see fit, and also last time I checked its not illegal to change my mind during a divorce! (Actually quite common). He has now delayed my divorce, stressed me out during this rough time in my life, and is taking ME to court to get $5k when he didn't do $5k worth of work. Now mind you I don't have a problem giving him $500, because that is worth the time he put in my case. Honestly he is not even worth a dollar! I guess he is so money hungry or either broke being he has put more energy against me then he did for my case. He is a rude, harassing attorney that should retire,. I warned you.

John was sent by GodI

I've known Mr. Ramsey for more than several years and he is a man of his word. He is caring person and he is a good person and great lawyer. He is very knowledgeable of the law and yes, he will keep you up to date with whatever case he is working on your behalf. I highly recommend Mr. Ramsey to an...yone who needs legal advice or to take care of legal matters. I will stand by Mr. Ramsey at any time.

A+ Effort in Criminal Defense

I was charged with a 2nd degree felony when I hired Mr. Ramsey. He negotiated with the State Attorney and the end result was an open container. I appeciate that he went to bat for me when no one else would give me the time of day.
