Straight shooter

This is unfortunately not my first attorney I have hired to represent me in my lifetime. Other criminal defense attorneys have promised me the moon and were unable to deliver. I really appreciated John’s ability to be straight and tell me the facts. My charges were eventually dropped due to John’s ex...pertise and I was extremely satisfied with his representation. I highly recommend John’s services.

Excellent Reperesentation

I was referred to John by a previous client of his in anticipation of a federal investigation. John set up a meeting the following day and explained the best course of action. While it turns out no such investigation was ongoing (my mistake) John was EXTREMELY thorough in checking all possible avenue...s for criminal (or civil) liability. I hope to never need an attorney again, but if I do John will be my first call.

DUI & Resisting Arrest

I was charged with four counts total including DUI and resisting arrest. We went all the way to trial. With John's expertise and the help of his excellent team I was found not guilty. If you're in trouble with the law I highly recommend giving John a call.

Exceptional, Capable & Professional

Dear Mr Schleiffarth, Words are simply not enough to thank you for the amazing job, you have done thus far with my brother's case. From the get go you have proven to be exceptional, capable and professional. You were extremely empathetic during my hour of need and as a physician, I could not have ask...ed for better representation for him. You have been very honest with us and as far as I am concerned, you are a miracle worker. Thank you so much for everything you have done

Someone you can really trust.

I was impressed right away with John Schleiffarth with how confident he was about being able to help me with my case. I faced up to 57 years in prison. He got all my felony charges dropped. I’ll tell you a little about my story. I went to school in Rolla, MO, at Missouri S&T. I had everything going g...reat for me and I had a misunderstanding with a cop. I was charged with up to 57 years in prison. I am a good person. I had really never been in trouble with the law. But when I was looking for lawyer I interviewed every lawyer in Rolla. There was no one there I believed could can handle my case so I looked online for whoever had great reviews. I interviewed some but they all pretty much told me the same thing. They told me that I won’t do all 57 years, they told me I would do more like 7 years. I didn’t want to do any time because I didn’t do anything. John called me back when I was on my way to see another lawyer and he gave me so much confidence over the phone. I didn’t want to waste my time going anywhere else. I liked his confidence and that he didn’t care who he had to go against or piss off to make sure that I didn’t do any time. He made time to meet with me that day. I drove two and a half hours to see him. I was so happy that he believed me. I asked him if he had a plan to help me and he explained it. He went to work right away. Most important, he succeeded. I was extremely pleased. I recommend John for any serious criminal problem.
