Made me feel small and unimportant

He answered my question quick, however was somewhat mean in his response. He made me feel like I was stupid. I felt hopeless after our brief consultation. Not everyone is a hardened criminal people make mistakes and nothings worse than an attorney that doesn't understand that. He spoke to me as if I ...were a piece of dirt.

This comment comes from a person that I have never represented and have never spoken to in person, email, or telephone. Its clearly from a person who did not like the legal answer to a question that was asked.

Honesty

I received a theft of services ticket for jumping the subway turnstile. I had purchased a monthly metro card two days prior but it was not reading correctly as I swiped 12 times. My train was pulling in and my mom had already entered without seeing me stranded. I jumped and an officer pulled me aside... and gave me a ticket even though I explained to him the situation. The officer assured me it was the most minor ticket I could receive but I was still very worried. I wish to go to law school one day and I do not want anything to be on my record. When I came to see John Brosnan he calmed me down and told me that the ticket was indeed very basic and payment would suffice the matter. The over-achiever in me wanted John to fight the ticket. But John kept insisting that I fight the ticket myself because the lightness of the issue did not require a lawyer. I still wanted no part of going to court at the slight chance of tarnishing my record. It got to the point where John told me that I would be saving money if I represented myself and I understood this but I still wanted him to handle everything. I was surprised by how concerned he was about my best interest even if it cost him an easy client. In the end I hired John and he quickly had the matter dismissed and I could not have been happier.

Tallented criminal defense lawyer

I hired John at Lance Fletcher's office to help a fiend of mine who got into a little trouble. John works on criminal cases only and was able to meet with my friend the same day he called and took the case for a very reasonable fee. It wasn't an easy case but John is someone who understands when em...otions are running high and he kept fighting the charges and eventually got it worked out with a great outcome. THANKS JOHN!!

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.
