Great defense lawyer, feel at ease if he's representing you!
I got a speeding ticket in Indiana and John represented me to clear the ticket. He was very professional, provided all information needed, and was very responsive throughout the process making sure I didn't have to do anything as he represented me. Thanks for your help John!

Very honest and a straight shooter
I hired John for traffic tickets. I didn't even have to go to court! He got me a 6 month deferral program and I didn't even have to pay for that. Very easy to get a hold of and very smart when it comes to the legal system. I'd recommend John to anyone!

Very upfront, honest, knowledgeable! Has built great relationships with his colleagues!
John has represented myself and my family on many matters ranging from drug dealing charges to traffic ticktes. He has great relationships within Lake and Porter counties. He helped me stay out of prison after Getting set up by the porter county drug task force also violations on my probation. John is very knowledgeable of the law and any loopholes in it. He was upfront, straightforward, and honest. John and his team were able to keep me out of prison, keep my job, and most importantly support my family! He also got my license back like it was nothing. I will always refer him to all my family and friends! Thanks John!

The Best Lawyer
In 2016 I was in a position needing a criminal lawyer. I was referred to John by a close friend. After meeting John I knew I was in good hands. He throughly explained the entire process of how he was going to take care of my case. After this conversation at his office I felt at ease going to court with John. I would not hesitate to re-hire John as my lawyer. Thank you John for all you've done for me. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND John.
