Law Offices Of John McCoy Credell

We have used John several times over the years, generally to handle tenant/​landlord disputes, to review real estate contracts, that kind of thing. We have always been so happy with his capable and professional attention. He’s approachable, calm and measured in his approach to situations where I’ve been ready to tear my hair out! He gives us some options and helps us make the best decision about how to proceed. His manner is affable and friendly, but when he had to go to court for us, we saw a different side come out and he ATTACKED!

John handled my divorce case and was excellent. I read «Foodie’s» review and apparently Foodie does not understand the court system. Family law takes FOREVER. When you submit all your paperwork you have to wait for the court to review the documents and compare them to the original Petition and Response that were filed. It can take 6 months to hear anything back. I have worked in the legal field for 30 years and that is just how it is.
John explained everything to me and made sure I was completely comfortable with the approach we were taking. John is an excellent attorney and truly does care about his clients. «Foodie’s» review really shows his lack of understanding of the legal process. It is not an attorney’s fault that the court system is truly backed up!

I’ve worked with many attorneys and I will say hands down, John is the best by a long shot.
3 things stand out about John.
1) John has been in the game a long time and has so much experience that he knows how to navigate the sea of unknowns we call the justice system today. He always explains the different options and possible outcomes and then recommends what he believes is the best course of action.
2) He actually cares about his clients. I could tell from the beginning that John is one of the good guys. I work with people on a daily basis, and it was always a pleasure meeting up with John and knowing that he was 100% attentive and focused on my situation. Going to court with John in my corner made me feel confident and safe.
3) John isn’t like most attorneys, just looking to drag a case on to make more money. In fact, he was the opposite, understood my financial struggles and did everything in his power to be concise and get things done in a effective and efficient manner. John was always fair and helped me get a payment plan in order that I could work with.
I can’t say enough good things about John, he has the experience and wisdom, a heart of gold, and is actually a guy I would call my friend and hang out with.

Don’t waste your money or time dealing with this fraud of an Attorney! My Ex and I went into this guys office to use him as a mediator. After reaching an agreement in October, we were told our divorce would be FINALIZED by March (The date of separation was to be back dated to September 1^st). After not hearing anything from John for several months, I emailed him (in March) attempting to find out what the status of our divorce was (since it should have been finalized by then). After having to send a couple of emails (due to not receiving a response), I was told that the courts were «backed up» and that was why it was delayed. I waited an additional month and again contacted John, who then told me that he needed a license plate number from one of our vehicles. After promptly giving him the information he needed, I again checked back a month later. John again gave me an excuse that made no sense.
Our divorce was Finalized A YEAR after it was supposed to be backdated as the date of separation! I again contacted John on two occasions and requested a partial refund due to his negligence in properly filing our divorce paperwork. I’d suggest if you’re even considering using this guy that you may either consider one of two things: 1. Do it yourself (it would be quicker stumbling through the process than the time this guys takes) or 2. Go some where else where the guy has a clue what he is doing!
DO NOT USE THIS GUY!!!

John is an excellent and passionate attorney. He is very though and I can tell he actually cares about his clients. I had consulted several attorney’s before I had met with John. John was the only one who cared enough to actually resolve the legal issues I was having. He also gave me a free consultation. I really appreciated that because I had consulted several attorneys before John and was charged hefty fees just to meet with me. In addition, John worked out a payment plan with me so I didn’t have to max out my credit cards to get me legal issues resolved. Because I am so confident in John’s ability as an attorney, I have referred several friends to him and he was able to help them, too.
