Highly recommended!

John is not only extremely knowledgeable, but personable as well. He handled my bankruptcy case professionally ... promptly returning my calls and answering my questions. His support and guidance helped me through a very difficult time. It's rare to find a lawyer who has such genuine concern for his ...clients!

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.
