An Attorney Who Truly Cares For His Clients

I was referred to John Hawkins by another attorney after she discovered she was unable to represent me due to conflict of interest, and I am very glad she was unable to represent me - otherwise I would not have had the opportunity to be represented by such an amazing attorney. He was kind, very perso...nable, and patient. John took the time to make sure I understood everything involving my case. He went above and beyond my expectations. From my experience, I know that he is not just interested in a big payout; he truly cares about his clients and getting justice for them. Before my first consult with John Hawkins, I was not even aware of the fact that I was entitled to any compensation. He is very easy to work with, very laid back, and does not bombard you with legal jargon that most people do not understand. I would recommend this attorney to anyone who needed help.

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.
