John Thomas Izzo

I wanted to take a moment to specifically recognize John, the founder of Izzo and Associates, because the impact he made on my experience was truly unforgettable. From the very beginning, it was clear that John genuinely cares about his clients on a deeper level. He is not just doing a job, he is ...driven by something much more meaningful, and you can feel that in the way he approaches every conversation and decision. Knowing a bit about his personal story and what led him to this work made it even more powerful to have him in my corner. It is obvious that his experiences have shaped the way he advocates for people, and that passion really shows. My case had its fair share of challenges and unexpected turns, but John handled everything with such a strategic and thoughtful approach. He stayed calm, focused, and always seemed to know exactly how to navigate each situation. On top of that, his negotiation skills are incredible. He truly fights for his clients and works hard to get the best possible outcome. What meant the most to me was how supported I felt throughout the entire process. John made sure I understood everything, checked in consistently, and never made me feel like I was going through it alone. That level of care is rare and it made all the difference. I am so incredibly grateful for John and everything he did for me. He is not only an amazing attorney but also someone who is genuinely trying to make a difference in people’s lives. I will recommend him every chance I get.

I cannot recommend John Izzo & Associates PLC highly enough. From the very beginning, John demonstrated exceptional professionalism, integrity, and dedication to my case. He approaches every situation with a calm, strategic mindset and a deep understanding of the law, which immediately gave me confid...ence that I was in capable hands. What truly sets John apart is his unwavering support for his clients. He genuinely cares about achieving the best possible outcome—not only for his clients, but especially for their children. Throughout the entire process, he remained attentive, responsive, and compassionate, ensuring that every decision was made with long-term stability and well-being in mind. John is extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and it shows in the way he navigates complex legal matters with clarity and precision. He doesn’t back down when advocating for his clients and consistently works to secure the strongest possible results. If you are looking for an attorney who combines professionalism, experience, and heartfelt dedication, John Izzo & Associates PLC is an outstanding choice.

John and Meredith has helped tremendously with Dahlia. Their team helped me with my divorce decree battle over the last 5 years. They have stood by my side and they were like second family to me. They are God send to me and my children. I couldn’t find any words on how awesome they work my case. I a...m very grateful and blessed to have them fight for me. Thank you and my Family appreciate you.

When I first spoke with Mr. Izzo regarding my divorce, he seemed like he genuinely cared and wanted to help so naturally I hired him. As time and the divorce pressed on there were a number of times he claimed we were at the finish line and "just one more payment to bump the retainer". Eventuall...y it drug on and on so much he promised as long as we didn't have to re-enter the courtroom there would be no more charges "after this one" (his co-counsel and my family heard him say this verbally). After a while he hit me up for more money again and his co-counsel (which was always on call with him, so you get double billed: YAY!) did remind him ONCE that he'd said "no more billings" and then eventually she no longer stood up to Mr. Izzo in my defense about his promise. (She likely got reprimanded after her initial reminder to him). I reminded him of his promise as he tap danced around it and as I continued to push he said he needed money to continue and didn't want to argue and hung up on me. He knew full well if I were to spin up another attorney it would cost me thousands and thousands of dollars to get up to speed, so what choice did I REALLY have? I eventually relented, again.. what choice did I have? Then came more charges, and more, and more. It became almost predictable. He'd call and tell me the same story over and over again about some other judge in some other county. I probably paid hundreds if not THOUSANDS of dollars to hear that story time and time again. He constantly called me by someone else's name in the beginning until I harshly corrected him. I think his case load does not match with what he can handle and is overwhelmed, overworked and likely understaffed. The opposing counsel constantly filed things after the filing deadlines and Mr. Izzo just accepted it for what it was, rather than raising the issue with the courts as we came in unprepared. Every time we encountered a dead end or an issue we should have taken higher or objected he just shrugged and said "it is what it is". Bottom line: No FIT parent should have to pay what I paid in attorney fees to have access to their child and in the end, I got told "It's OK, you got the quality time with your kid on the weekends with no distractions like school work or doctors visits" as if being a second class citizen/parent was ever a goal to admire.

I would like to start by saying that John Izzo knows very well what he is doing and that he handles the situations like none other . These difficult times for us are emotional and are not an easy thing to go through, but let me tell you what a difference it has made having someone in our corner t...hat will fight his heart out for us , has never left us hanging and we have been through a lot of this over the past several years due to the other side and there nonsense . John Izzo has been with us every step of the way . John gives knowledgable advice and handles the case and himself very well , he has never promised an outcome to us, as that can't truthfully be done . However our case and our family has got exceptional results every time. John works with the facts and presents them extremely well. John represented me several years ago , John got my son returned to me from another state ! I have had my son every since . John then begin to represent my fiancee a short time later and she has her son ever since . Due to the other side we have had to endure several trips into the court house including -at the drop of a hat notice from the court that we would have to be in court for emergency hearing the following morning , John notified us immediately as soon as he got notice from the court , he called every phone number he had for us until he got in touch with us ! Then he was standing in the courtroom on time batting for us with less then 24 hours notice to anyone on our side knowing this was going to happen including himself . Once again we got great results as John put a stop to the foolish games the other side was trying to play . Let me tell you most attorneys are not going to do this for you that is amazing . John has been there everytime and has gotten us exceptional results. I highly recommend John to anyone that is going through this difficult time , there may also be other good family attorneys out there but I can say from experience we have had and having John by our side , that if I had any other then John Izzo in our corner , I would feel like I had less .
