John Drake really helped our family....

We had a sensitive custody case that lasted the better part of a year, and was finally over this August. John did an outstanding job representing us, and we won our case thanks to his diligence and patience. We were awarded more by the Judge than we asked for, which is a testament to how well John p...resented our case. John's paralegal, Kellie was also extremely helpful and responsive. During several bumps in the road, she kept us calm and balanced with her guidance and reassurance, and so did John. Forever grateful to both of them for taking such good care of us.

That Kathy chose to laud my assistant, Kellie, before me, is not surprising. I'm proud to have an assistant of twelve years who can fill the needs of our clients when I'm in Court. Way to go Kellie. Thank you Kathy

Tamera's case was one of the longer more difficult workers compensation cases I've had. Throughout her ordeal, she remained patient, loyal and poised. The grace and dignity she demonstrated through terribly difficult injuries and extremely long litigation was exemplary. I'm extremely proud to call Tamera my client. Thank you so much.

Attorney Skeptic

After dealing with attorneys over the years, as a law enforcement officer, hiring one is not something high on my list. With that said, I knew I had to find an attorney that I knew something about, trusted, and who would be a good fit with me considering my attitude at times. Over the years, John has... defended many clients that I arrested. So I knew right away that he wouldn't just half way do what he was supposed to do and that his knowledge of the law was very good considering the trials that we've had and that his cross examinations while on the stand during testimony were tough to say the least. I can say that when I brought my problem to him, even though it was family law and not criminal law, after speaking to him, he set my mind at ease about the issue. Well, my opinion has changed somewhat now, not on all lawyers, but in regards to John Drake....best decision I ever made in hiring an attorney!! His assistant, Kellie, always prompt, courteous, and on top of knowing where my case was at any given time, even though I know she's a busy person. Thank you for a job superbly done!!

This Law Enforcement Officer has challenged me in and out of court. I have to admit he taught me many things. I'm proud he chose me to help him. I'm also proud he serves our community well. Thanks Officer!

Too good to be true? Yes!!!

What an amazing firm- especially John D. Drake and his paralegal Kellie go WAY above and beyond what a person could expect and get the results you want! For example, I was arrested for PI and I am a public figure..... He and Kellie worked their butts off and suggested community service and AA meeting...s! I did what they suggested and we actually walked out of court with everything being completely dismissed!!! Like it never happened! John and Kellie are proficient, knowledgeable and caring! Other firms can promise you the moon, but IF you want someone honest, loyal and would fight for you at a reasonable cost..... Please look no further! They literally are for you!!!! TRUST ME!

When a client listens and follows up with the advice of her lawyer, doing good things for her becomes a lot easier. Thank you for your trust.
