Highly recommended!

“I had the pleasure of working with John Liston for a consultation regarding my new optometric employee contract, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. John is incredibly personable and approachable, which immediately put me at ease during what could have been a stressful process. He ex...plained every detail with clarity, ensuring I fully understood my options and felt confident moving forward. His professionalism and expertise were evident throughout, and his ability to address my concerns with patience and thoroughness was truly impressive. I highly recommend John to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, professional, and friendly attorney. It was a pleasure working with him, and I wouldn’t hesitate to seek his guidance again in the future.”

Extremely Responsive and Knowledgeable

I reached out to John based on a peer recommendation. I had a response from him within a few hours and we were able to work through 2 employment contract matters within the day. He was able to provide a holistic viewpoint and fair and balanced counsel. I would certainly recommend him in the future to... anyone.

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.
