Trusted Advisor
John was my trusted advisor throughout the entire process. His number one priority was protecting me and my children. He's direct and to the point and provides candid feedback. He is always available, responding almost immediately at any hour of the day. He doesn't nickel and dime every communication and works tirelessly to resolve the case as quickly as possible. Would strongly recommend to anyone looking to go through a divorce.

Amazing Attorney
I had the privilege of working with John D and this firm. He is an outstanding divorce attorney who truly went above and beyond to represent my interests during a complex divorce case. From the very beginning, he exhibited a remarkable level of dedication, steadfast demeanor and no bull attitude. His expertise put me at ease during an undoubtedly challenging time in my life. John's commitment to protecting my rights and ensuring a fair outcome was unwavering. He was incredibly thorough in his research, meticulous in his preparation, told me what I needed to hear, whether I wanted to hear it or not. He always kept me informed about the progress of my case. What truly set John apart was his ability to handle difficult situations with grace and professionalism, ensuring that my interests were protected without resorting to aggressive tactics. He advocated for my needs effectively and managed to secure a favorable resolution that exceeded my expectations. I would wholeheartedly recommend John to anyone seeking legal representation in a divorce case. His expertise and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome make him a standout choice in the field. Thank you for helping me navigate this challenging chapter of my life with the utmost care and professionalism.

The guy for your corner
I really appreciated the honesty and guidance in working with In Law We Trust to resolve a divorce. John was available at any time and communication was as much or little as I needed. Nothing was forced on me, just the facts of law and potential outcomes. John then worked to achieve what I wanted to do for my case. When it came time for mediation John worked to resolve the case in the best interest of his client while also working to reach a resolution to prevent a trial. As a man with a distrust of the equity of the judicial system this was a great experience and I recommend anyone to use In Law We Trust.

You will not find better legal counsel for the price
John and Laura did a fantastic job handling my child custody case. The pricing was unbeatable. I had an open line of communication to John at all times of day for counsel and legal advice. John is very direct and to the point and has a no BS attitude. He will be real with you whether you want to hear it or not, but he will work hard to make sure that you're getting the best legal advice to make the best legal decisions. I walked away with everything I wanted and some and it would not have been possible without John and his team.

A light that guides you through the darkness
There is unease with divorce. The terminology, the exposure to the unknown, the vulnerability, and all while trying to deconstruct something that you planned in spending the rest of your life building. John and his team were there to endure the transition was as smooth as possible. He answered my texts and guided me to an outcome that was exactly what I wanted. Divorce is painful and chaotic and being lost in that forest is almost overwhelming. John provided the path. It’s still painful but from that direction comes stability , security, and ultimately resolute closure.
