Posted by Amber | April 25, 2014 | Adoption

Just the lawyer we were looking for!!!

After I got married, my husband wanted to adopt my daughter. We tried to do it on our own but it was confussing and overwhelming. We then meet Mr. Stobart who assured us that he would make this a pain free process. He walked us through each step making it stress free and effortless. We are now one bi...g happy family thanks to him.

John Ely Stobart's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse John
Scott Anthony McMillan headshot
Scott McMillan

Employment and labor lawyer | Sep 20

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer's work. John was my law clerk. He autonomously prepared cases for trial, even before he was a lawyer. He is an excellent writer, a genuine legal scholar, and a polished speaker. He actually conducted depositions prior to being a licensed attorney. John Stobart demonstrated diligence, competence, and most importantly -- was always reliable. John Stobart is someone that will deliver a good result."

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.
