A Personal Touch

Mr. Drake and his assistant Kellie Finney provided a much-appreciated personal touch in handling my recently concluded personal injury case. They were patient as I dealt with post-concussive problems of loss of memory, focus and concentration. My calls and emails were returned promptly and they alway...s welcomed my input as the case proceeded. At the outset, Mr. Drake provided an honest evaluation of possible outcomes. Most importantly, I never felt pressured to settle. I definitely felt my interests were well served.

Amazing Man, Staff !!!!

I looked for a few months to find someone that I felt would work for me! And understand the ins and outs of what I had been through. I met with John Drake and Kellie his paralegal. He put every worry I had to rest as he answered all my questions and settled my fears. I knew he was the attorney for... my case. John was up front and honest that my case would take time. John also stated have faith in me and dont give up. I was injured on 5/2/14 and I wasn't approved for any surgery or assistance till 1/9/17. We tried mediation with AMAZON.com who was my employer, We tried to get additional medical care, to no avail. Then we went to court where John was prepared and his persistence fighting for me paid off. I was was always heard, John and his staff were always there to answer any questions, give me courage not to give up and most of all that I would get the care I needed and deserved. The wait was well worth it. I am still healing but I thank John and his staff continually. That was just one of the hurdles we have and we are on to the next one. Excellent Service, Staff !!! They treat you like a human not just someone to push in and out of a door.

Excellent Experience

I had the pleasure of working with John as I was the Executer of my grandmother's estate. Having no experience in this matter I hired John and found him to be both knowledgeable and great to work with. He and his staff made the process painless as they walked with me through each step. They were quic...k to answer any questions by email or phone. If the need for an attorney arises again I will not hesitate to contact John.

Not a man of his word.

I hired Drake to represent my grandson on various charges. He did not call me or my husband as character witnesses as he had said he would. After my grandson was convicted and sent directly to jail to serve his full sentence, Mr. Drake told him to contact him in a few months and would be glad to fi...le a petition to try and get him out early. He told me and my husband the same thing after we left the court room and stood and talked with him for several minutes. Four months passed and I called his office and left a message for him to call me with his secretary. After not hearing from him for a week, I called his office again and the secretary said to me "this is about getting your grandson out early, right?" And i said yes, it is. She said again that she would have him call. Two and a half months later and he has still not called us. He obviously is not a man of his word. I thought about offering him more money to petition the court but came to my senses and decided I did not want someone who could not be trusted.
