BEST CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY

John Vernon Moore came highly recommended to me from another attorney I was looking at some very serious criminal charges. When I met with him, he thoroughly explained all my options and I left so relieved to have found him to represent me. If I ever had any questions he or his paralegal answered the...m completely. The jury brought a verdict back of NOT GUILTY on all charges. I definitely was not disappointed at all. I would highly recommend him again to anyone facing serious criminal charges.

Knowledgeable, Empathetic & Strategic

Mr. Moore was recommended to me by a friend and I am so happy. I called. He reached out during his busy day and gave me a free consultation. I wanted to hire him on the spot. We saw eye to eye and he had intelligent, methodical suggestions to help me out over an employment lawsuit that had just been... filed. He put my mind at ease and lead me in the right direction.

The communication and time response are top notch! I needed help with family law and John was very helpful in preparing the necessary documents to make a potentially stressful situation go smoothly. Highly recommend!

The best criminal attorney

Attorney John Moore is truly the best criminal attorney you could ever ask for when facing legal issues. I’m in armed forces and faced a serious criminal matter after which I was looking to be discharged. John has a huge representation amongst my coworkers in the Air Force as being “the best”. They w...ere not kidding. He is worth every penny he charges. I cannot over emphasize how fundamental it is to use Attorney Moore when fancing ANY LEGAL ISSUE - especially criminal cases. John not only provided counsel to resolve my legal issue but was also extremely knowledgeable when it comes to military law and the application of the UCMJ. With his profound understanding of military implications on a servicemembes life (he is married to active duty military as well), John helped me traverse the vast number of military related documents and crafted a detailed rebuttal to save my military careeer. On top of not losing my job, everything else was also taken care of and my record will remain clean. He is down to earth, accessible, and will never make you feel like you are just a number. I’m so incredibly lucky to be represented by Attorney John Moore and I hope he continues to serve the community and further develop his reputation as THE VERY BEST attorney you can obtain as your legal counsel.

Best Military Divorce Attorney

I was represented by Attorney Moore during my divorce and could not be more pleased with his work. John is without a doubt one of the best divorce attorneys around - especially when dealing with military components of divorce. He helped me through my very nasty divorce and was extremely professional.... If you want a great family law attorney, hire Attorney Moore as your divorce lawyer. Highly recommended!
