John and his team, especially Leigh, were outstanding throughout my case. They were professional, effective, and consistently available whenever I needed them. Their communication was excellent—every call or text was either answered right away or returned the same day. I always felt informed and supported, and their dedication made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. HI highly recommend their services to anyone in need of strong, reliable representation.

Top level attorney. John was always seemed a step ahead of things and in the end my case went the way I needed it to. No matter where this roller coaster of a case went John was always able to respond effectively. I hope I never need Johns help again but if I ever do I could not think of a better attorney to stand by my side.

John is one hell of a lawyer! I was going through a bad patch in life where alcohol was an issue. None the less I got in trouble back to back. I had two DWI's within 60days of each other which one was with a suspend license and a car accident. I was looking at jail time! He was able to get One DWI completely dropped and the Second DWI dropped to an SIS (Suspended Imposition of Sentence). I spent NO JAIL TIME thank god! I was able to set up payments with him. He honestly cares about you and he

This man did what he tried to do! This man fought long and hard to get me probation. He clearly explained everything and went through numerous files/videos. This man is kind, patient, very intelligent and trustworthy. I am glad I got to know this man, I wish the circumstances were different of course but everyone in their office is kind. I hope to see him again under normal circumstances, no more court for me. THANK YOU JOHN AND GOD BLESS YOU!!

I was wrongfully charged with multiple counts of a serious felony. I was facing up to 35 years in prison. I hired John to fight my case and the felony counts were all dropped. JCS law is the real deal. Now I have a great future again and can move on with my life

I did a LOT of research and calling before choosing John and I am so grateful for choosing him as my DWI attorney. From the first 30 seconds of talking to him, I knew he was the right choice to help me. I recommend him to everyone!!!!!

Facing a "Better Call Saul" moment, I contacted several firms in the St. Louis area and was most impressed by JCS Law. Andrew was professionally responsive yet very easygoing and helped extricate me from a potentially sticky situation.

He was very caring and compassionate. Even though I had no choice at the time, I had a lot of guilt and bad feelings about bankruptcy and John took all of those away. He helped me through it mentally.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
