Professional and Personal Representation

John David Drake and his staff (Kellie Finney) are much more than a temporary one-time business relationship to me. I feel that my case was very personal and that is how I was treated from day one as a client from this professional firm, “personal.” The representation I received was not just thoroug...h and with favorable outcome it was a learning experience in how the legal system works. The time that is taken to answer to my every question and the ability to cut through on a personal level gave me the utmost trust that this firm was in my corner. Thank you John David Drake and your skilled staff for your outstanding legal representation of my interest. I look forward to you being my family lawyer for any future needs that may arise and consider you and your staff not just my families representation, but also one of friends.

Review for John Drake

John Drake did all he agreed to do. He did it in the time span that he said he would and for the fee agreed on. I was pleased and will contact him again when I am in need of a lawyer.

A True Professional

I needed a lawyer to represent me in a probation violation. It was my second violation and I just didn't want to go to jail again. I searched the Internet for "Best Lawyers In Murfreesboro" and John Drake came up, next to other lawyers. I called him and left a message with his secretary and he got ri...ght back to me. I told him my problem and he went right to work before I even paid him. He told what to do, he had a plan, he met with my Wife and I and he treated us like family. He didn't make promises but he said he would fight for me and that's exactly what he did. He faught to the end for me and the result was.... NO JAIL TIME. That's exactly what we wanted and HE DID IT!!! If ypu need an attorney call him. WHAT A RELIEF!! Thanks Mr. Drake.

Kevin made a mistake. That mistake resulted in a violation of his probation. But after his violation he made every right decision there was to make. By doing that he got his probation officer to take his side. Kevin's actions were brilliant and he received an exceptional result. Thank you Kevin for "DOING THE NEXT RIGHT THING!" Now you can parent your kids and be a husband to your wife. Clients like Kevin make me look smart. - John D. Drake

Review for John David Drake

John went above and beyond on my case. After reviewing it with him just once, he knew exactly how to handle it and made it very minimal work for me, which was great because of my busy schedule. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Dependable Representation

I spoke with almost every attorney in Rutherford County before I had the pleasure of meeting with Mr. John D. Drake. After eight years and two life changing events, I can say with the utmost confidence if you are in need of a family/personal injury attorney you can trust to represent your best intere...st look no further. John took the time to get to know me and the situation I faced before laying out a series of action for obtaining the outcome I needed. I was not always the easiest client to deal with due to the emotional nature of both my legal situations. If I was crying he would make me laugh, if I was angry he would make me laugh, if I was complacent he would call me out and encourage me to take action. With John and his assistant Kelly as your legal guidance you have a team who will go the extra mile for you. I am thankful to say that over the years I have gained two friends whom I fully trust to support my family's best interest if and when the need arises.
