"I can’t say enough good things about John Harvell. He represented me in a DUI case, and while I was hesitant to litigate, I followed his advice — and I’m glad I did. The outcome we achieved was better than I ever expected, truly unheard of in cases like mine. John was professional, responsive, and took the time to answer all my questions. He made a stressful situation manageable with his expertise and calm confidence. In my opinion, there’s no better defense attorney out there. Highly recommend!"

"Received John’s number from a colleague who said “by the end, you’ll be wearing John harvell t-shirts.” He was very professional and didn’t bs me like other law firms. He also got great results! From a 3rd misdemeanor looking at a felony to a fine, John saved my behind! Wouldn’t call anyone else. John’s your man!"
