John helped in a very difficult situation involving the disposition of my dad's estate and a Final Release I had signed. It was complex with issues of ethics and alleged fraud and the very deep pockets of our opponent, her firm, and her insurance company. {para}With his skilled and dedicated team of specialized attorneys and assistants, formal and informal consultations with other experts, we were able, cost-effectively, to bring the matter to a substantial settlement in my favor. 110% recommended.

John Lang is not only an extraordinary lawyer, he is at the center of an equally extraordinary network of specialists who extend and complement his expertise. This multidisciplinary network brings the depth and excellence one might expect in a large firm to a small firm experience.

I can think of no lawyer I would recommend more highly than John Lang. For matters having to do with litigation of any type there is none better. In matters of judgement, he is, again, at the top of the list. In one recent case having to do with possible past tax due, John's advice as to strategy and approach (how best to keep legal expenses at a minimum)was uncannily good; in a case having to do with retirement/ownership matters, his judgement has been invaluable.

John is a very strong yet caring attorney who came up with creative solutions to problems and really fought for me. He handled my case extremely well, and intimidated the opposing counsel at depositions.

He delayed my claims for the year that I retained him, admitting after many months that he was not able tohandle my case. His fees were exorbitant.
