Re: 3.8 million dollar medical malpractice claim.

“John acted as Plaintiff counsel on a medical malpractice claim where I was defending a physician. The file was sensitive to say the least, and called on all parties to bring their best work to the table. John was a tireless advocate on behalf of his client, a minor, and brought the matter to a resolution with both sensitivity and respect. His grasp of the complex issues involved was admirable. I would recommend him highly as legal counsel on any similar file.”

“I found the Guide to be very informative and helpful. There is more to this whole process than I thought. The Guide told me which documents need to be acquired, experts that need to be found, the costs that could be involved and the time frames to expect.

It is a great feeling to be debt free. I am helping my daughter with her bills and providing her with a much better home set-up and spending a great deal more time with my grandchildren, which I have never had the opportunity to do. For this we are so grateful to you.
 
Again thank you for believing and representing me.  John you turned it around in my favour for that I will always be grateful. If you ever need a referral or would like me to speak to another abused victim let me know and I will be happy to assist!”
