John is great!

John made this whole process so easy! All I had to do was look over the case with him once, and he took it from there! I hardly remember it because he handled everything with promptness and professionalism.

Sarah is a brilliant, vibrant and hard working young person. She has all the skills to succeed in life. I look forward to the day that she can come to me and tell me I was right to believe in her. If what happened to her is the worst thing to happen in her life, she is going to have a great life. I know it will happen for you, Sarah. Thank you- John D. Drake

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.

Carrie is the type of client lawyers look forward to representing. She listens and takes action. In addition to being a hardworking, single mother, she is a good citizen and great example to her children. Carrie will be successful, no matter what happens in her life. Thank you, Carrie for your trust in our work.

I am not big on attorneys but John is awsome!

I hired John in 2009 and he did an awsome job of getting the job done. He accomplished what my old atty had said could not get done. Unfortunately I am forced to hire John again due to my lovely ex. I am comfident that John will do an excellent job at a fair price. If you need an atty I highly re...commend you speak with him he may not tell you what you want to hear but what you need to hear. He is one of the good guys!

Very Satisifed.

John is an expert attorney and top notch negotiator. I have used him twice as my criminal defense attorney and each time the legal outcome was incredibly favorable for me. If you are looking for an attorney who will not just defend you, but knows how to get you the best possible outcome, then this is... your man.

A vicious bulldog in your corner

If you need someone who will stand by your side and REALLY fight for you, John D. Drake is your man. I was in a very weak and sore state when he took to my defense, and he was more than enough stand in front of me and attack. I would highly recommend John to anyone at anytime

I wish I could deduce exactly who this client is, then maybe I could show them that I have all my shots. Aggressive representation, while helpful, isn't the only way to obtain a good outcome. I often say a light approach is equal to a heavy pounding, as long as the result is a win. -John Drake
