John T. Fields

I needed an attorney who would help with my child custody dispute, which had been addressed in the divorce a year prior, but did not provide for a safe situation for the 3 children my ex husband and I have together. I searched the area for attorneys, and was very disappointed with the results. Afte...r speaking with Attorney Fields, who lived several hours away, I was confident he was the man for the job. He lived across the state, but was willing to take the case and travel wherever needed. My case was a very difficult child custody case. Attorney Fields always made time to speak with me when I needed legal advice about the sometimes rapidly-changing situation, when I had concerns about different aspects of the case, and anytime I needed clarification on an issue. He was patient and professional, but also resolute when it came to speaking with the other party. In addition to Attorney Field’s skill, his paralegal, Magdalene, was also highly competent, friendly, and professional. I have experienced a great deal of frustration when trying to speak with other attorneys’ staff, but that was not the case with Magdalene. She is an outstanding asset to his team. I have been impressed with Attorney Field’s knowledge, skills, flexibility, and powers of persuasion. He prepared diligently and thoroughly for the trial, and his strong case contributed to a last-minute settlement assuring full satisfaction of my concerns moving forward. Attorney Fields settled for nothing less than 100% of what I wanted done. He was expensive, but worth every penny. The only thing that would have made the experience better is if I would have had him for the divorce itself!

The law firm discribes John as "Pitbull attorney". This is far from the truth. His is average at best and puts a lot of his work onto younger/less experience attorneys. By doing this I don't feel you get the type of quality John discribes as a "pitbull" and the results of the case showed. The on...ly time you really get to talk to him is just before meeting with the judge. The only thing he is a "Pitbull" at is making sure he get paid and doesn't work with his clients on payment. Becare and watch closely on how much of a bill you are racking up because he does not communicate your balance as he working for you and before you know it your bill will be over 11, 000. Quality does NOT match what you are paying for.
