"We had a Landlord/Tenant issue and John truly helped us immensely. We were very impressed with the amount of detail, care, and preperation involved up to the court date. I would recommend John to anyone that needs legal assistance. We would definitely use him again in the future as well. Finally, we were very happy with the outcome."

"I can’t say enough good things about my experience with John Avery. Going through a restraining order case was one of the most stressful and emotionally challenging times in my life, but he guided me through every step with professionalism and most importantly - compassion. John Avery is proof that lawyers don't have to be jerks to be effective. If there's a legal equivalent to 'bedside manner', Mr Avery embodies it. Even in the most stressful moments of my case (which spanned months, many trips to the police station, many trips to court) John was patient, confident, and professional to the max.We had a successful outcome, but realistically not every single case will, and whatever the outcome is - its worth having someone by your side through these things - there's so much I didn't know about the process that went much better with someone walking me through all the right steps. I certainly wouldn't have been able to do this on my own. At times I thought, I don't really have the extra funds to spend on a lawyer but trust me its worth having the peace of mind and experience of having someone by your side."

"I hired John Avery to help me with a very stressful eviction case, and I’m so glad I did. If you're thinking, this is something I can do on my own... don't. John made sure we dotted all of our i's and crossed all of our t's so that the process didn't take any longer than necessary (though it always takes longer than you wish it would!) Throughout the entire process, Mr Avery took the time to explain my rights and options clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and worked diligently to build a strong case. I never felt alone or uninformed."

"I recently worked with Mr. John Avery on a landlord tenant matter (I’m the tenant), and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience and results. Before contacting Mr. Avery I spoke with two other attorneys that I researched and did not feel a connection once we reviewed my case. From my first conversation with Mr. Avery we spoke the same language, he was very professional, knowledgeable and attentive to every detail of my case. Mr. Avery kept me informed throughout the process, answered all my questions thoroughly and made sure I understood my rights and options as a tenant. Thanks to his dedication and expertise, my case was resolved successfully in my favor. I highly recommend Mr. John Avery to anyone seeking effective and professional legal representation in landlord-tenant disputes. Thank you again for your outstanding work!"
