Domain Name Lawyer that clearly knows what he is doing

John is an extremely skilled attorney that is familiar with Internet law but what makes John unique is that he possesses the mind of a practical businessman. John's experience as an attorney familiar with domain name disputes becomes self-evident to anybody that is fortunate enough to find John a...s their attorney. From the beginning, John informed me on the strengths and weaknesses of my claim pursued through either the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act (ACPA) or were I to pursue my claim through a UDRP arbitration. The legal analysis that I received from John came with a candid assessment of the financial costs of a particular strategy and also a summary of the probability of my success. During the course of the litigation, John oftentimes offered alternative suggestions on how we might choose to proceed that showed me he has a very clear insight and deep level of familiarity with Internet law. Finally, and most importantly to me, I received an amazingly high level of client service and dedication that when it was necessary to speak with him on short notice and at late hours in the evening, John was always available. I cannot say enough good things about this particular attorney.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I first had the pleasure of meeting John at his prior firm, where his work struck me as excellent. When he struck out on his own, the work product (of course) continued on an upward trajectory. John's work is something to be proud of. His professionalism and ethics leave nothing to be desired. Well, one desire - that he has the opportunity to inspire other lawyers to his excellence in the tangible and intangible traits that make one a credit to the profession."
