This man will take care of you

I hired John Fox for two separate cases. This attorney was saved in my phone as “Lawyer” after our first conversation. When I was tackled by Officer Bible in Bexar County during a stop, the first thing I did was call him. If it was not for this man I would have lost my license and I would’ve truly be...en lost. He was a godsend. A patient, understanding lawyer who always kept me in the loop. He is a great listener and would and will recommend him to anyone who’s ever in any trouble. He won my ALR hearing. You need to hire John Fox, it’s that simple. And once you do, if you are ever in any situation he will never forget you and always wants to help.

Extraordinary

John is a fantastic attorney. My case was hopeless and I was facing a considerable jail term for felony DUI 3rd or more. John and his colleagues started me on an incredible program. I was able to demonstrate to the court that I was worthy of probation. I feel John went the extra mile for me and becau...se of him I’m a free man with a great future ahead.

Forever grateful

Attentive, proactive, great communicator. Shows that he is in service to those in need, not just a monetary drop in the bucket. John truly cares and knows how to approach situations that seem hopeless and I will be forever indebted to him and his collegues.

Best in the business

John Fox gave me the best possible representation I could have asked for, he took my felony case all the way down to a misdemeanor and then he was able to get a plea deal for 2 years of probation, and just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, he gets me off of probation in just 7 months. This m...an is incredible with his work ethic and deep knowledge of the justice system, and he actually wants to help you get through a tough time, for example, he wrote the letter that got me off of probation early for free. In my opinion, if you want the best, you just found him

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.

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.
