Major Car Wreck on I80

My family and I (five of us) were pinched between two semi tractor trailers on I80, in all there were maybe 13 vehicles involved in the pileup. We were lucky to all still be alive. The case was incredibly complex, literally involving teams of attorneys. John was brought in on the case, and did an ...excellent job. This type of litigation is very difficult, involving many player, with many of them being very unpleasant and unscrupulous - I've heard it described as a toxic environment. However, John and his team persevered with a higher standard of ethics, compared to the professionals on the other side of the court room, and prevailed. You will find him to hardworking, skilled, perseverent and even at the end of a rough day still very pleasant. The same goes for his staff. It is important to find the right people, because in this type of litigation, you will likely be working with them for a quite a while. Good luck to you and God bless, in whatever you are currently facing.
