This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Expert in Elder Law

Extremely knowledgeable in the area of helping the elderly when they are in need to protect their estates. Traveled to nursing home even when needed. Very hands on, concerned for dad and reasonably priced.

A great champion for the elderly!

I can't recommend John Adair enough. I'm dealing with a very sensitive and challenging elder care situation, and John Adair was the perfect attorney to help me navigate through the system and my options. He understands the needs of the elderly exceptionally well and gave me sound advice. He's a great... champion for the elderly!

Estate Planning Advice

I had numerous questions regarding assisting some older friends in dealing with their estate, and John was very helpful pointing me in the right direction. I have used John's services before and am very comfortable with his ability to give me good advice.

Wouldn't even listen

As soon as they answered I was telling the lady what was going on and because I mentioned CPS she just said that I will have to find another lawyer, yes my daughters father's girlfriend called cps on me it's an investigation, that's what jealous girlfriends who want to play mommy do... Anything to ma...ke me lose my kids.... Thanks for nothing

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.
