John T. Schomisch Jr. got the job done, while still being a kind and easy to talk to guy!

Easy to talk to, approachable, and empathetic; This is what I was looking for after having my case languish for years. While looking for a new lawyer to take over, I was tired and in pain-both physically and emotionally. Worse, I was starting to believe that all those awful stereotypes about lawyers ...only caring about "big money" cases were true. John met me, listened to my story and took over my Workman's Comp. case knowing it wasn't going to net us a huge settlement, but because in his words, "You're a good person and I want to help you." He did help me and we settled my case to my satisfaction. John is also a good person with a good heart and an awesome lawyer. I would recommend him to anyone because although lawyers do need to be aggressive and tenacious, (which of course John is!) once they lose their human side, how do we know who's side they really are on? John will be on YOUR side, not his own.
