This kind man navigated me through the worst time in my life. He is compassionate, knowledgeable, and savvy. If i ever need a lawyer again, this is the first email or phone call i would make. He will fight for you.
Jon Hackworth and his team exceeded my expectations. As a referred attorney, his reputation is well known and respected. In the 8th inning, he provided the guidance needed to not only proceed legally and (unbeknownst to him) instilled the confidence to move forward personally. While we have control over our life direction, our choices play a role in the success of that direction. I am grateful to have chosen Jon Hawksworth and would recommend his services without hesitation. >Thank you Jon for my freedom <
Mr. Hackworth is an excellent attorney. He provided me with the highest quality service for a very reasonable fee. Even during the pandemic lockdown, Mr. Hackworth was very attentive to my case. I highly recommend Mr. Hackworth, he is aggressive from the start and works hard to get the best results for his clients. I am so happy my friend recommended I contact him because he truly saved my career and life! Thank you Mr. Hackworth!
Great experience with John. He took care of everything in a timely and professional manner. Kept great communication with me on all aspects of the case. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation!
We contacted John for help without case and he was always very professional and learned in Family law. He was always very responsive and courteous. He gave us peace of mind in a very alarming situation and guided us when we needed it most. He gave us the confidence to continue when we were at our rock bottom. Thanks to his help we are able to breathe a lost easier. He is highly recommended!
A few years ago today, my child's mother threatened to abandon state with our toddler. I filed the necessary paperwork in the courthouse pro se. Eventually, she did leave the state with child without my permission. I hired a local attorney who represented me during several meditations to reestablish my relationship with daughter. The mother eventually decided to not mediate further and my attorney was a bit sluggish to react. I decided to fire her and consult with other attorneys. Mr. Hackworth was 1 out of 4 local attorneys. Each attorney offered trial representation at an expensive rate. Some attorneys did not speak with me and requested consultation fees. Mr. Hackworth contacted me and offered pre-trial and trial representation at a very affordable rate. To be honest, the low rate caused skepticism and hesitation at first. After further online research, I could not find anything negative. I am glad I decided to hire attorney Hackworth. He is personable, he does not make you feel rushed, he conducts business using his own cell phone which is extraordinary and that is not all, Mr. Hackworth assisted me in winning majority custody of my daughter. As a father, most people doubted the possibility of this outcome for the last two years of my life. Attorney Hackworth made this possible. Do not hesitate to hire him, he is affordable, caring and very knowledgeable.
When the issue of visitation and child support came up with my daughter I had no idea where to being the legal process. The office of J. Hackworth made the emotional stress of the situation easier by providing my family with knowledgeable and prompt responses to my questions. They were efficient in dealing with the other party and conveyed my feelings exactly. I would highly recommend that if you are in need of family legal counsel you reach out to their office.
I was referred to Jon Hackworth by a good friend after I had received a speeding ticket back in September. I can't begin to tell you what a pleasure it has been to be a client of his. He is extremely personable and professional. While speaking with him he displayed patience and compassion. Because of my busy schedule I appreciated communicating with Jon via text; the service he provided was not only seamless but absolutely convenient! Lastly, my case was dismissed. My experience: Top Notch!
Mr. Hackworth is a very knowledgeable an considerate man. He always seemed to find the time for any of my concerns or questions abut my case. He made me feel extremely confident in his ability to represent me an my case during my Trail.. I would highly recommend him to anyone that finds there self in need of his services. He is a very focused man. Who made me feel the compassion an dedication he gave my case. He keeps everything on a very professional level an makes sure your needs are met.
Jonathan Hackworth won me a sole custody, which is very hard to get, especially in Florida. He did a great job in getting ready for a final hearing. His whole team worked extremely hard, stayed late nights in order to accomplish things. John was very responsible and always responded to e-mails and phone calls. I am very grateful to him for getting me everything what I wanted after the divorce.
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.
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.
