An Acually Kind and Honest person

John took the time to listen and empathize with my situation. Eventhough I did not have a case to pursue, he also took the time to explain the law as it pertained to my situation, which 2 previous attorneys failed to do. I finally felt heard, and can leave this issue in the past.

Excellent Attorney and staff!

John Fowler did an excellent job representing us in an auto accident injury. He was very professional and knowledgeable in every aspect of our case. John brought it to a very satisfactory outcome in a very reasonable time frame in spite of the fact some time had passed since the injury/accident occ...urred. We would absolutely recommend him for any legal matter. Thanks John and Xue for hanging in there for us!

Excellence and Professionalism

Mr. John Fowler represented me in a labor dispute and from our initial meeting he demonstrated a professional and knowledgeable position. He carefully listened and took copious notes of our discussion and when he restated the facts he demonstrated insight and wisdom. Throughout the process he kept in... close contact with me and made sure I was aware of my options and any possible challenges to the case. He believed in me and worked diligently until the case was resolved and I would highly recommend him for his expertise and professionalism.

Experienced and trustworthy

Right from the start, it was obvious John is a very experienced and competent trail court attorney. He's taken on the government and some of the biggest law firms in the state and won. It was equally obvious that mine was an individual case that he wouldn't make any assumptions about. He treated m...y case as if it was his only one and quickly earned my complete trust and confidence. John is is an excellent communicator both in and out of the court room. A powerful and persuasive orator before the court, yet very humble and approachable while dealing with me on an individual level. He never tried to persuade me to settle; instead, John consulted with me on every twist and turn of my case and always asked for and listened to my opinions. In the end, John got me a judgment for more money than I knew my case was worth. I wouldn't consider using anyone but John Fowler in the future.

Excellent Lawyer

I was the no fault driver in an auto accident while visiting California. I needed a great attorney in CA to represent me. On a recommendation, I hired John Fowler. He's was very thorough in outlining the process of my specific case, what to expect and welcomed and answered all my questions. He ke...pt me informed at all times of the status of my case. His legal knowledge and experience is top notch and the type of attorney you want in your corner. He is a great listener and addressed all my concerns. He encouraged me every step of the way to a successful outcome for my case. I highly recommend John Fowler, whether you live in CA or elsewhere.

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.
