Attorney

John Ennis did a great job representing me during my divorce. I found him to be confident, honest , professional and extremely accessible. A client could not ask for a more committed lawyer than John Ennis. He is a skilled advocate who always put my needs and concerns first. I would highly recomme...nd John Ennis.

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.
