Why we have used and continue to use John W. Schuster, Caliber Law

John Schuster was been our attorney from the inception our electrical contracting company in Sept/2006. He has drafted every contract, sub-contract, operating agreement, non-compete as well as confidentiality agreements we’ve ever had and they’ve been bulletproof. We’ve also had to have John represen...t us three times to correct bad situations (suing for services not delivered, lack of payment on a project, etc.). Each of those situations ended in our favor (a WIN) and with very favorable judgements. His character, integrity and judgement are impeccable and his guidance has assisted has in our company’s growth. I would strongly recommend John Schuster to any family member, friend and/or business associate.

Purchase Of Business and Real Estate

John was a fantastic Attorney to work with. He was there to answer tons of questions we had and helped in a number of different ways. This was a new venture for us and I know we could have never pulled it off in the short time frame we had without the help of John. He helped with the securing of n...ot one but two LLC's required for our new venture. We would not hesitated to recommend John for all your Attorney needs. Thanks John - Jim & Sharon

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.
