Commercial Swimming Pool Contractor

I first hired John about four years ago.He was referred to me by one of my peers in my industry.I had a General contractor who was not paying me and i was afraid he was going to take advantage of me as long as he could and get rid of me. I had been in business for 36 years and had never been in this ...position before.I was afraid i could lose my business,they owed me a lot of money and i had spent a lot to get this job done.First John assured me i was in the right and it could take a while but i would get paid eventually as this was a bonded job.John spent a lot of time with me explaining the laws to me and the path we would have to take to get resolution.As it turned out i was right this contractor was indeed unscrupulous and employed every tactic to stall the proceedings hoping i would give up and just go away.When we finally got to mediation they actually started out saying i owed them! By the end of a very long day of negotiating they were begging me to give them a payment schedule for them to pay me instead of immediatly.The satisfaction was better than the money.I have used John since,have referred others to him and i also have him review all my contracts before i sign them,it is well worth it.In closing i would say i agree with the nickname for John that my friend who first referred me to John."The Bulldog".I would with no qualms whatsoever refer Thresher & Thresher P.A. for any of your Construction contract needs.

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.
