Posted by Jane | July 04, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Limited Liability Company (LLC)

Knowledgeable, thorough, and personable.

John and his office staff helped my husband and I set up LLCs for our farming operation. He also helped us get a will and estate documents in place. From start to finish, the entire office was helpful, knowledgeable, and professional.

Agriculture lawyer | Oct 05

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I am pleased to endorse John Schwarz, an excellent agricultural attorney with the broad based knowledge to be an effective advocate for the farmer and farm family. Not many attorneys can qualify as a true counselor to farm producers, but John can and is. He also brings to the table his own hands on farm experience as a current grain farmer in northern Indiana. John's office should be on every Indiana, Ohio and Michigan farmer's Rolodex."

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.
