Incomparable Family and Military Law Specialist

Mr. Schweitzer has the knowledge, experience, brain power, and personality to put it all together and get you through a case. After going through multiple attorneys over the years in a custody matter Mr. Schweitzer took what would have been an absolute mess and turned it around in such a way i could ...understand and prevail. It is easy to see why all the other attorney's in town seek his advice on military law. I don't think there is anyone better in San Diego to deal with Family Law and Military Law

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"When it comes to family law and military divorces, John Schweitzer is quite simply without peer in San Diego County. As the Director of Legal Assistance on Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, I see hundreds of military divorces every year. John Schweitzer is the first person I call when I have a question regarding military divorces, as he truly understands the key issues, which include: military retirement division & garnishment, child custody & move-away orders (when one spouse PCS’s), Servicemember Civil Relief Act (SCRA) implications in a divorce, and accurately figuring support (both interim and court ordered). Furthermore, John is heavily involved in the local legal community and is Co-Chair of the Family Law Section of the San Diego County Bar Association. John is a superb family law attorney!"

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
