Review John Hauk

Separation Case

Posted by anonymousTue Oct 30 2018

Especially loved the fact that I didn’t feel judged and he listened to my input as to what I wanted out of this separation.

Family court

Posted by Patrick Thu Dec 22 2016

John is a very down to earth guy. He was able to understand the needs of my situation and is easy to communicate with. He does good work and in a timely manner. There is also a website that you can track your case, which makes it easy to keep things organized or stay on top of things. Emails are also sent to you as reminders that you have an important date coming up. I would highly recommend John to anyone in need of his service.
