A+

John handled a very time sensitive matter for me quickly and efficiently. He listened to me and saw my evidence and made it clear to the other party that I wasn't going to stand for their bullying. Saved me a trip to court as well as a financial burden. I have recommended him to several others alrea...dy and would hire him again! I wish I met him months ago to help me fight in family court before hiring someone else.

Great lawyer

John helped me and my family with a difficult lawsuit involving the construction of our home. I recommend John for any legal issue. He is very knowledgeable and clearly explains issues. We are satisfied with the out come of our legal issue and hope we never have another one. If for some reason I find... myself in legal trouble I will make John my first call. John was the only lawyer I talked to that would help me with out paying a large sum upfront for his service.

One of the best choices our family ever made!

John Grave is the complete package. When faced with overwhelming legal and financial injustices our family found refuge in knowing we secured formidable and competent representation. The Law Office of John H. Graves leverages knowledge, technology and personal contacts that ensured we were alwa...ys moving forward from a position of strength. John is very diplomatic and uses a best interest approach when dealing with delicate relationships especially those involving family. His entire office works timely and efficiently keeping his fees and hours accrued very fair and reasonable. Whether its personal or business affairs, I look forward to receiving continued guidance from John and his team in the future. Thank you for all your time and dedication helping our family.

Truely Amazing!!

Mr. Graves really cares for his clients!!! He will be totally straight forward with you and will take you seriously as well. He is not an attorney who wants to make the $$, he is an attorney who truly cares about families (especially the kids) and wants to make a difference in thieves of those who ...he works with. He is a man who will listen and take into consideration your worries and concerns while working his hardest to ensure the kids are protected, which is what is most important. I "know" I was scared to death to get a divorce mainly for the kids and thier best interst, but he has eased my mind and has answered every question I have had quickly and without penny picking me. I would tell every person in the world to hire him to represent them, as he will ensure you are taken care of. I can not thank him enough for what he has done for me, but especially what he has done to ensure my children have a stable and safe environment And life.

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.
