john did what all others said couldnt be done!!!
My wife was in Clayton, needed her out for the kids and myself. All other attorneys told me it would be at least another day. Talked with John at 12:30, by 2:30pm he had meet with the judge and she was out a few hours later. This guy is amazing at what he does....thanks John
