White collar crime lawyer | Oct 18

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"John Wolfe is regarded as the best white collar defense attorney in the state, but his general criminal defense work is also of the highest caliber. John achieves great results for all his clients through meticulous preparation and extremely effective advocacy in court. Not only is John a leader in the courtroom, he also leads outside of it. He was instrumental in founding the Washington Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers which is the most influential criminal defense organization in our state. I would highly recommend John Wolfe to any citizen in need and I would refer a client to him with confidence that the best result possible would be achieved."

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.
