Professional

John Michael Myers was a steady and reliable presence during a very difficult time in my life. From our first meeting, he was clear, professional, and helped me understand what to expect. The process wasn’t easy, especially with an ex who made things difficult at every turn, but having someone I coul...d trust made a big difference. His team is great, too, always responsive and helpful. I’d recommend him to anyone needing support through a divorce.

Volatile Divorce with 4 Children

My case, in summary, was a divorce after 8 years of marriage and involved 4 children. I left an abusive, volatile individual and my divorce involved a restraining order, lot's of obnoxious details, and plenty of opportunity for drama. Mr. Myers, in summary, remained the steady anchor of my divorc...e process. He knows the legal system extremely well, he has a very good reputation amongst the judges (which means they take him seriously), he handles things with pragmatism and professionalism, and he doesn't get sucked into the emotional drama of the situation. If you're looking for a "hype-man" to tell you about how great your case is and how much your ex sucks, then this is not your guy-- he's too steady and reliable for that. But if you're looking for someone to be honest with you about what to expect, to do the job correctly the first time and to do it with integrity and reliability, then you're in great hands with John Michael and his paralegal, Jordan.

Not timely

Handed this lawyer a cut and dry case. I had already filled the divorce paperwork out and the ex refused to sign it. So all the fact finding was done. It took a couple months for him to get it on his letter head for review. Once it was reviewed by me he emailed it to my ex. My ex didn't get it. ... It took 30 days and me calling for him to realize he sent it to the wrong email. Once it was reviewed and signed by all parties, the lawyer sent it to the courthouse. It took me calling the courthouse to find out his form of payment was not good. I then had to call the lawyer to let him know of the sotuation. This continued through the entire process where I was calling and following up on this lawyer. I basically babysat him through the process. He billed me for all the hours without a discount. I feel he is taking advantage of people. My divorce should have taken 3 months top. I should not have to call the courthouse to be sure my paperwork was filed.

"I've worked with Mr. Myers on the opposite sides of many cases, some of which have involved trial and/or mediation, and some of which have settled without the need for alternative dispute resolution or trial. Mr. Myers is always very well prepared and does a fantastic job representing his clients, while also maintaining amicable relationships with his peers. I would highly recommend Mr. Myers to any potential client."
