It was a great pleasure working with John Ryan. He was very honest from the very first time I met him in 2022 until everything was resolved. Not only did he keep me up to date on the progress he was making, he also made sure he explained the entire process and all of the possible scenarios. He was very present and easy to reach whenever I had questions or needed advise. The result he achieved was unexpected but very much appreciated.

This is my written opinion only and I’m utilizing my
freedom of press…speech and all other constitutional rights!
You will win! But, you must let Jason tell you what to do. If you let him...you will win. If you don’t listen to Jay…well then you'll lose. In my opinion, all winners feel like losers and all losers feel like winners with this slick city lawyer! He just came to the one horse town of Fredonia! I lived there once or twice. Quaint little town in the daytime and loud attractions at night; make this town unforgettable. Downtown that is…not in the politically small neighborhoods where formed alliances are planning their revenge.
A regular Hatfield’s and McCoy’s kind of neighborhood at times. My home town is less than a mile from Fredonia~ they’re connected. On another note: Do yourself the favor...and don't get all chit chatty with him ( that behavior takes his focus off of your case and his wife gets jealous. Unfortunately, with the wrong women. Wait to bond with him and his family until after he wins your case. That way, he can focus on the issue at hand.
Thirdly, If you don't want to do what he says...then things in court may not turn out in your favor. Think about it…He is an attorney with good credentials…trust him or dump him quick and replace him with someone outside of this area or there is going to be a conflict of interest that the court will allow. This is a hard court ( to say the least) and they allow a lot! Then, they will talk about your rights! Lmao

My kid's father hired and paid the retainer fee of this firm. Unfortunately, before his first court appearance, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer and passed away. The kids requested a refund of the retainer to help cover the cost of his burial, as he had no savings. Despite numerous calls and visits, we were only refunded $1,000 out of the $3,500 paid. This experience reinforced the belief that some attorneys can be seen as scams, as demonstrated by the actions of this particular lawyer. Good job for stealing $ for a service you never did as these young kids are still paying for the costs a year later.
