About John
Biography
I am a trial lawyer, with roughly over thirteen years experience in the courtroom. I know that if you are looking for a criminal defense lawyer for yourself or a loved one, you are seeking results. Furthermore, if you do not have confidence in your lawyer, you will never have confidence in the results he obtains for you. I have numerous positive outcomes at trial, and I have negotiated hundreds of plea agreements, many of which have been remarkable in their own right. I also have a notable record of dismissals, as a result of search or confession challenges under the Fourth and Fifth Amendments. Most importantly I can be reached 24/7 – I believe that if you spend your money on an attorney you should have access to him at all hours of the day. Therefore, I give all my clients my cell phone number so I can be reached any day at any time. Since 2001, I have devoted my law practice to defending people against criminal charges in Federal and State Court of Florida, concentrating on Broward, Palm Beach and Dade County

An Awesome Attorney With Compassion
John Weekes helped my nephew legally and went above and beyond to help him get counseling for substance abuse. My nephew has recovered and is now enrolled in college and working part time. Johnny was so compassionate with our family and we are forever grateful.
