Posted by Benjamin | June 23, 2015 | Personal Injury

A job well done.

I was involved in an accident with a semi truck in September of 2014. After a week or so, and the anticipated stress of medical bills piling up; I reached out to John for assistance. John was quick to take over my case, effectively communicating with hospitals, doctors, and whoever else was involved ...in helping me recover. At the first consultation he walked me through the process, explaining very clearly the expected time it would take from the end of my physical therapy, to working on a demand letter to eventually settling with the insurance company. He was available near 24/7 for me to reach out to, and I took advantage of that. Any concerns that arose from the beginning of the case to the end, he was quick to address and put both my wife and I at ease. He maintained regular contact to ensure any concerns I had during the process were promptly addressed. Most importantly, he negotiated a handsome award which covered my medical bills and padded my pockets quite nicely.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
