I couldn't thank you enough, John!

John has been a life saver for me over the years! I, unfortunately, struck out twice with irresponsible mothers of my children. Even at a time when it was unheard of for a young man to gain custody of his daughter, John was able to show the courts my compassion for my daughter and win custody! Several years later he not only did it again, but he did it in a way that left everybody, including the mother, happy in understanding that it was the right thing to do. My life would have been very different if it wasn't for his dedication and skills. I couldn't thank you enough, John!
