Reviews

John Ramsey is not a good lawyer he can't across very pleasant at first & quickly became very easily irritable not speaking to his client nor the client's representative nor persons that paid out finances to help the client. He only got one offer by the States Attorney & expected the family of the client to do the leg work & find witnesses to do depositions. He spoke rudely, used foul language & did not help his client in any manner that should have taken the amount of money that he required. If anyone chooses him as their future representative they are making a terrible mistake. He really needs to retire & give up his day job. I am entitled to my personal opinion like anyone else.

Hopefully my review would save someone the headache. Mr. Ramsey comes across as very pleasant, but he has another side. While incarcerated, I hired him to represent me in 2 cases. The first day I was arrested my family took him the money to represent me. After not speaking with him in over 30 days and call being declined, I had my bondsman do a 3 way call. He did not answer, but returned the call within 5 mins. My bondsman explained my frustration and Mr. Ramsey got upset. He proceeded with calling the association and having my bondsman’s calls blocked from the jail house. He also called my Children’s father and told him that he believed my bondsman and I were having relations. He then decided to send me a letter in the mail stating he was withdrawing from one of my cases. I ended up spending way more time in jail because of him not communicating and his unprofessionalism. After almost 4 months in jail, I fired him. I got another attorney and was free at my next court date. His reputation is horrible. It was shocking to hear about all the bad experiences the inmates had with him. I’m shocked that he’s still able to practice after so many complaints. Beware

He helped me when no one else would. I appreciate that he was always honest with me and would hire him again.

I was facing two 3rd Degree Felonies. John helped me get a reasonable bond, he hung in there for me and the entire case got dropped. Worth the money I paid him.

John helped me get the case dropped. Thanks for offering me a payment plan I could afford. I will definitely refer others to him.

John offered a payment plan I could afford. I hired him for myself and two other family members. We all got good results. He was a lifesaver.

I came to John for my divorce from my husband. I met with him twice for a total of one hour. We never got into details pertaining my case. He did reply to a summons I had, that was it! Me and my husband decided to agree on everything and drawled up papers with his lawyer. Before I had the chance to talk with John, he called me and left two rude messages stating that "I was in the wrong for not consulting him first,and that me and my husbands agreement was null and void because he wasn't involved (btw its preceding just fine), and also that he didn't know what me and my husband was up to!" Well last time I checked he worked for me!! I never been divorced and didn't know the correct protocol for lawyer etiquette, but I thought this was my divorce to handle as I see fit, and also last time I checked its not illegal to change my mind during a divorce! (Actually quite common). He has now delayed my divorce, stressed me out during this rough time in my life, and is taking ME to court to get $5k when he didn't do $5k worth of work. Now mind you I don't have a problem giving him $500, because that is worth the time he put in my case. Honestly he is not even worth a dollar! I guess he is so money hungry or either broke being he has put more energy against me then he did for my case. He is a rude, harassing attorney that should retire,. I warned you.

He's who&what you need.....look NO FURTHER!!!!!!

I've known Mr. Ramsey for more than several years and he is a man of his word. He is caring person and he is a good person and great lawyer. He is very knowledgeable of the law and yes, he will keep you up to date with whatever case he is working on your behalf. I highly recommend Mr. Ramsey to anyone who needs legal advice or to take care of legal matters. I will stand by Mr. Ramsey at any time.

I was charged with a 2nd degree felony when I hired Mr. Ramsey. He negotiated with the State Attorney and the end result was an open container. I appeciate that he went to bat for me when no one else would give me the time of day.

Mr. Ramsey responded quickly when I called him for help. He has affordable payment options and took the time to explain the process to me and my family. Mr. Ramsey's interviention prevented my son from losing his job and his freedom.

When the public defender told my daughter it wasn't his job to offer a defense for my daughter, only to try and get her a good plea deal, that she was definitely going to prison, i placed a plea on CL for help. John responded simply wanting to know the facts of her case. I was skeptical at first but after talking with John on the phone he settled my fears and i hired him on my daughters behalf. She was released from jail with John's help a few days later. Throughout the case John kept me informed of everything he would be doing on her behalf, court dates and times, and talked with me frequently about the case. I am very satisfied with his handling of this case, and glad that we had the opportunity to work with him. His rates were reasonable, his knowledge and work ethic was great. I recommend anyone that needs a criminal lawyer in Gainesville to give him a call before making a decision to hire an attorney. P.S. my daughter did not go to prison Thank you John for all you did.
