Sharp, tenacious, dedicated

For over 18 months- Mr. Choate fought in the trenches for me and my daughter against a mountain of lies that were nearly believed. Because of Mr. Choate’s quick wit, he was able to prove nearly every point the opposition had made as false allegations. My daughter and I are eternally grateful that he ...never gave up- even when we were tired of the fight. His closing argument nailed the coffin lid closed. We won’t ever consider another attorney.

The Best Around

I dont use these words lightly. I have dealt with many "attorneys" in the last 25 years. whether it be criminal, civil, or family I have been through the gambit. Every time I sat down with one these parasites their only interest was parting me from my money as fast possible. I was nary one ever told ...the truth. Until I met John. I was referred to him through a friend. I had just lost my family law case through ineffective council I really didn't want to meet with another lawyer, I'm very glad my friend convinced men to meet with John Choate. There isn't an attorney more honest or has more integrity, He listened to my story and told me he could help. I don't know what form of sorcery he used but John had my case reopened and, retried, and got me a very favorable outcome. I cant thank him enough for his help. He didn't rake me over the coals either, I was already short on funds after my former attorneys ineptitude. He wasn't cheap but he worked with me with me., This its a man that stands for right and truth, I would trust him with my everything.

  • 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.
