This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great!

My family and I were beyond grateful for all of John's help. When we first met him we were not in the best of situations and John took time to come to our home on a Sunday to hear our case. He then took it on and fought really hard for us and was able to get compensation for our family. Everyone in h...is office was so nice and easy to work with, very diligent and great at getting back to you in a timely manner! Great experience!

Professional Representation

My minor aged grand daughter, whom we have raised since birth, was involved in an auto accident and the court appointed John Sloan as her ad litem attorney. We found John to be a supremely qualified attorney that was truly committed to our grand daughter's best interest. Both John, and his paralegal ...assistant Beverly, communicated with us on a regular basis and kept us informed at every stage of the process. I would highly recommend the Sloan Firm to anyone that needs representation by a qualified and caring attorney.

Truck accident

My husband was seriously injured in an industrial truck accident. John represented us with dignity and professionalism that surpassed all others. His team investigated the accident with creative depth that clearly communicated the details of the crash. I will ever be grateful to John for all his hard... work and the client dedication expressed to us during that time.

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.
