John M. Liston

John helped me when I was let go from my employer. I thought that I was let go unfairly and needed legal advice. After several consultations with other lawyers I went with John. He treated me the way I needed to be treated, felt that he was professional and honest with me. I was offered a severance ...package to part ways with my employer. John helped me weigh the risk of taking legal action or accepting the severance package and he ultimately helped me make the right decision that was best for me and my family. I needed help with my unemployment claim and had several questions through the filing process. As the questions came to mind I would email him and he would respond not only the same day but within a few hours, usually in less than a hour. With the emotions of the unknown and uncertainty his quick replies relieved those feelings, making it easy to get on with my day to focus on my other responsibilities. Truely grateful for his services!

There are not enough words to adequately describe John. To say he is the most knowledgeable, gifted attorney would be an understatement. In what turned out to be an incredibly long, drug out, nasty case...John held our hands the entire way and took the time to carefully explain each and every step an...d what it would mean for the future of our case. Even when we were unsure if the system would fail us, he constantly reassured us that we were taking all of the correct steps. John never once lost his cool and always took the high road. In court, he was informed, punctual, and to the point. He knows the law and fights to defend it. He is a true class act. We will always consider John family. Thankful he was able to help us defend our rights and bring us some justice. His help and knowledge were priceless.

I hired John to what I thought would be a short mediation, which has turned into a longer battle. Although I have not received resolution at this time, I can confidently say I have the best attorney possible for my issues (EEO) with my employer. John is extremely empathetic, honest and always resp...onds to calls/emails in a timely manner (same day). John is extremely professional and also very personable. He has offered his legal expertise on other issues outside the scope of my employment issues (such as reviewing a FOIA request). John will be upfront and honest if something is out of his scope of expertise. John is an incredibly kind person and has become what I consider a friend, but he is also not afraid to fight. After seeing him in mediation and correspondence with attorneys from my employer, John fiercely fought for me in a stern and professional manner, which gave me the utmost confidence in his abilities and integrity. John never talked or pressured me into taking a bad deal. In fact, he comforted me that he was in this for the long run. This is the kind of guy John is. I cannot say enough good things about his skills and character, John has been incredible and I will continue to use or at the minimum - consult with him regarding any issues dealing with any future employment issues.
