Daniel Amando Ruiz headshot
Daniel Ruiz

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Mar 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with John on a several matters over the past 8 years, including matters in bankruptcy, creditor/debtor disputes, probate law, business law, administrative law and civil litigation. John is one of, if not the most, thoughtful and practical attorneys in the Greater Houston Area. John first makes sure he is in tune with his clients' goals, and then he ensures that his clients understand the big picture ahead of time. It's not just the big picture, but he also communicates with his clients well in terms of the minute details, making some of the most complex issues seem clearer and easier for his clients to understand. John has great experience understanding the opposing sides of various legal situations because he has represented debtors and creditors, plaintiffs and defendants, companies and shareholders, and various types of parties in probate matters, contested and uncontested."
