He handled a tough situation for me—total professional. Best criminal lawyer in Louisville, KY. Everyone says the same. Great communication, knows the system inside and out. Would definitely use again. He was honest, responsive, and made a stressful time much easier to deal with. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and fights hard to get the best outcome possible.

John did a great job getting some family members off of some serious gun charges. I would recommend working with john and his firm. They handle the case in a timely manner.. and the cost for representation was very reasonable.

John is a very professional, knowledgeable, and experienced attorney. With his guidance and perseverance, I was able to get a great ruling on my case. He was very prompt, attentive, and understanding of my circumstances. He never inflated the severity of my case, in the sense that a scare tactic is not his style of conducting business. He advised exactly what the possibilities of the ruling would be, and the consequences. I am truly appreciative of his experience, kindness, and trustworthiness. If you are looking for representation from an experienced, empathetic, and ethical attorney. Call John!

Excellent in his practice. Hes a no nonsense attorney who gets results and very fast! Hes always upfront about his prices and he can handle your case with the kind of 1on1 concern that you wont get from any other attorney in town. Once you've hired Olash Law, you'll have a concerned attorney that looks at things from a human perspective and not just textbook let's get this over with. Good man and honorable leader. I'd vote for him as mayor if he ever ran for it.

Working with John Olash was a very orderly process , he called us in for an interview and collected all the facts and then went to work. he contacted us on a consistent basis to let us know how our case was going and was excellent in his communication with our insurance company and the complete follow up in finalizing our case. I would definitely recommend and hire John Olash again!
