Excellent
Received a DUI and a handful of other tickets, but with Johns help I only received 1 ticket. The money John saved me on the other tickets paid for the cost itself!!

John is very informational, and helpful! He got the result he said he would. I responded to a mailer and after speaking with him hired him on the spot. I knew I was in great hands, making the case not at scary. I am very happy with the process and outcome. I hope I don't need an attorney again ...

I followed through in his recommendations and he was able to negotiate the charge...

John got the desired result for me in my divorce hearing. I couldn't have received a better outcome. It was also a pleasure working with John's paralegal Mary. She helped assist me with getting all the paperwork taken care of and filed in a timely fashion.
