John August Staas

Mr. Staas handled my divorce case. Throughout the process, I found him responsive, patient and very knowledgeable about family law. He does not sugarcoat facts though, so sometimes I felt like crying and even angry at him, but at the same time he is very supportive and will fight for your best intere...sts. I highly recommend him.

Mr. Staas is a money hungry lazy person.. I can't call him a lawyer because he will do absolutely nothing.. if you have an amicable divorce it's different but if you want child support or alimony or divisions of assets. Forget him! Division of assets? He will not even bother 2 minutes to look up valu...e of your home online forget about the rest.. you will lose everything .. seriously that bad.. he comes to courts 1 hour late and totally Unprepared...

Mr. Staas has provided legal assistance to me several times over the past 15 years. On a personal level he has helped me with a parenting agreement and was able to resolve an extremely complicated inheritance situation with my Spanish aunt that involved three states and two countries. On a profession...al level, he assisted a grassroots not-for-profit organization in which more than 80 volunteers (including myself) and staff sued the board of directors for control of the organization. With this case, he gave us countless hours in pro bono assistance over two years. In all of these instances, Mr. Staas was a sympathetic advocate, an objective and unflappable strategist, and an honest, forthright adviser. Every case had a positive outcome. I have recommended him to friends and I would hire him again without a second thought.
