John Sahhar

I have contacted John Sahar and he is reviewing my case. Very profession, understanding, and caring. Unlike other attorneys I have gone through for free evaluation, who does not listen to you or are very rude. I felt good after I spoke with John about my case and felt very positive. I would very high...ly recommend John Sahar. I give him 10 stars.

First Class Legal Service

I have used the legal services of Mr. Sahhar's law practice. John and his staff have proven to be responsive and effective in several matters. Their professional demeanor and concern for client welfare is quite refreshing. I would highly recommend John's legal services at any time.

Grateful and Highly Satisfied!

I would like to wholeheartedly recommend John Sahhar as the best choice for any case you might have concerning personal injury. I was very impressed by his professionalism and full knowledge of his field. He also has a great reputation, held by many others I have done business with that know him, as ...well as his colleagues and the opposing counsel. During the entire time from start to finish of my case I felt like he was very reassuring, and readily available for any questions or concerns I had. I believe him to be a very ethical, and personable man making him extremely easy to trust and feel comfortable working with in any situation.

Meeting with John Sahhar

I met with John this week and he was very empathetic, knowledgeable and professional. My case is complex and not exactly in his area of expertise. If he represents me I am confident he would do an excellent job.

  • 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.
