John J. Hamilton - Attorney is a solo practice.
Mr. Hamilton handles every client's matter, personally. He is a "roll-up-the-sleeves," hands-on attorney. He employes no other attorneys, paralegals or legal secretaries.
Clients of Mr. Hamilton can expect that he will personally write every legal letter and legal document, make every phone call, will personally answer every client's phone call; and conduct any trial (if necessary) on a client's behalf.
Mr. Hamilton recognizes that some individuals are unable to afford 'full-representation' in a lawsuit -- particularly where the individual is being sued. In such cases, Mr. Hamilton can provided "Limited Scope Representation" to be the plaintiff or defendant's 'ghost-writer' for writing pleadings; responding to and demanding 'Discovery' from adversarial parties; writing motions; attending motion hearings and will represent you at trial -- all on a ala carte' basis.
Beginning in 1998, Mr. Hamilton offered his services to other attorneys as an independent contractor and over 50 attorneys in Los Angeles, Riverside, and Orange Counties have hired him to do trials, arbitrations, mediations, and argue motions for them and their clients in court, often at "the last minute."
Since 2005, Mr. Hamilton has dedicated his practice to taking only a limited number of cases where he handles all aspects of the case without using a secretary, paralegal or other attorneys.
Mr. Hamilton handles both civil and criminal matters.
