John J Kolego

I hired john kolego on recomendation of several friends, who said he was one of the best in town. He charged q very reasonable flat rate that was within my means (which i honestly didnt expect, i was struggling hard financially at the time). What could have been a serious felony he prevented a drug c...harge i got from escalating from possession to distribution.he got me the best possible outcome i could have gotten in my case, and also helped me into q really good rehab and helped me get clean within the process. Hes compassionate understanding never made me feel judged or ashamed and gave me advice that has prevented me from getting in trouble since.one time me qnd my ex git pulled over and the cops were harrassing us and completely violating our rights, so i called his office and explained what they were doing as they were doing it and although they illegally searched my vehicle they didnt end up charging me with anything or taking anything from me. I definitly recomend him to anyone with criminal charges.

An incident became distorted into something which brought multiple counts against me, the victim. The seriousness of the charges due to a relentless investigation in search of confirming bias, became a complicated nightmare, to say the least. John stepped in with good advice and protection by helpin...g us know our rights and how to respond to the charges. A good attorney was necessary to get us through this horrible and unbelievable stack of accusations and charges. Sometimes in life, nightmares happen and John's experience gave him the ability to get us through! Lies and bias did not win! (His rates were set so it was not an endless drain on limited finances which gave us assurance that we were not going to run out of funds as the process was drawn out.)

John was the best attorney. He was so helpful and got me through all of my court proceedings with no issues and exactly the desired results. He was super fair with the price and so wonderful to me and my significant other. He answered all of my questions promptly and there's no doubt about it, he wil...l fight for you! I can't thank him and his office enough for all their help.

I’m a convicted felon on parole. I had two separate new cases, both felonies. When I started with a public defender, he told me I would be going back to prison for 30 months. Period. After hiring John and his partner, for one reasonable fee, I ended up getting through both cases with road crew and mo...re probabtion. No jail or prison time. Thank you John. Thank you Andy.

I hired John based on a recommendation from a Eugene judge. That was the right decision. I was extremely nervous since a guilty conviction would limit the type of employment I could be subject to for the next 5 years. John had very little to work with on my case since everything pointed against me. T...he situation was made worse in court by the deceptive corroborative narrative that was portrayed. Personally, that was hard to deal with. John kept a cool and level head and talked me down when I got frustrated and even listened to me vent. John offered a myriad of motions to get the case dropped because of a lack of evidence. John also presented motions in court so, if the case went south, then I would have a better approach for an appeal, if I so chose or needed to go that direction. After the closing statements, John walked out of the courtroom declaring he felt he had connected and reach the 6 person jury. John believed the jury understood what he was trying to convey to them and the jury came back with a verdict of not guilty. This is what 30 plus years of legal experience gets you: someone who is savvy with the system, knows how to navigate the pitfalls, and keeps you on course so you don't personally shoot yourself in the foot. Considering what the cost of fines, lost time, and lost wages would have been had I been found guilty John's price was a great deal. I would recommend John to anybody that needs help with criminal defense.
