Being counseled by John was an amazing legal experience. He showed his proficiency in my case like a true professional . Very smart individual. He’s excellent at letting you know exactly what’s on the table. I was not very knowledgeable about court lingos/etiquettes. John made sure to make everything clear. I was comfortable right from the beginning to the end of my case. Thanks John and Gina. You guys are awesome.

My son found himself in a terrible situation that neither he nor I ever imagined he would be in. It was devastating, and we didn’t know the best way to proceed. A friend highly recommended John, and hiring him was the absolute right thing to do. He advised, counselled and supported us through the entire court process. What I, as a mother, really appreciated was that if I called John with a question or concern he always took my call. He was quite clear about his boundaries and client confidentiality, while being supportive. John kept my son out of prison, which of course is the ultimate goal, but even if the verdict had been different I know John worked diligently for my son. I am now the friend who will highly recommend John in the future.
Thank you John.

Many thanks to John Kolego for his expertise and care in a case involving my nephew. He did exactly what he told us he would do, and was able to get the outcome he had projected. His years of experience and thorough understanding of the law guided my family through a very difficult situation. What I found most helpful was the time he gave us to answer all of our questions. He was with us every step of the way. Thank you John.

John Kolego is a helpful and caring attorney. He was able to help me with my situation in one consultation, and he did not even charge me. I was quite impressed that he expediently made calls for me, and helped me immensely, with nothing asked in return. I feel Mr. Kolego is an attorney who genuinely wants to help people. His paralegal, Jean, is also very kind and helpful. I also think it speaks volumes that she has been with him for over 30 years. He must treat his staff very well, in addition to his clients.

I hired john kolego on recomendation of several friends, who said he was one of the best in town. He charged q very reasonable flat rate that was within my means (which i honestly didnt expect, i was struggling hard financially at the time). What could have been a serious felony he prevented a drug charge i got from escalating from possession to distribution.he got me the best possible outcome i could have gotten in my case, and also helped me into q really good rehab and helped me get clean within the process. Hes compassionate understanding never made me feel judged or ashamed and gave me advice that has prevented me from getting in trouble since.one time me qnd my ex git pulled over and the cops were harrassing us and completely violating our rights, so i called his office and explained what they were doing as they were doing it and although they illegally searched my vehicle they didnt end up charging me with anything or taking anything from me. I definitly recomend him to anyone with criminal charges.

John kolego was an amazing attorney. To be very honest. The passion, the professionalism, as well as the dedication, that John kolego had. Made us feel that he was the perfect attorney we could have chosen to take our case. He was very helpful whenever we needed it. He answered every question we had. He also spoke very good Spanish. He fought hard so that an injustice did not happen. We are forever thankful for his hard and amazing work. I 100% recommend him.

An incident became distorted into something which brought multiple counts against me, the victim. The seriousness of the charges due to a relentless investigation in search of confirming bias, became a complicated nightmare, to say the least. John stepped in with good advice and protection by helping us know our rights and how to respond to the charges. A good attorney was necessary to get us through this horrible and unbelievable stack of accusations and charges. Sometimes in life, nightmares happen and John's experience gave him the ability to get us through! Lies and bias did not win!
(His rates were set so it was not an endless drain on limited finances which gave us assurance that we were not going to run out of funds as the process was drawn out.)

John was recommended to me by a former client who said that John managed an incredibly good outcome for him which helped save his good-paying job on a new career. My case was challenging -- driving while suspended/revoked in a "difficult" county when I was within a few months of being able to reapply for my license. John was very knowledgeable...and patient...working with an out-of-county court that was particularly challenging. His experience and knowledge helped navigate me through some incredible hurdles and to the best outcome I could imagine -- dismissal of the case after a fairly brief diversion period. This allowed me to begin pursuing my license again, with his continued help. I'm doing my best to earn that license back, but I wouldn't have had the chance without his excellent help. He communicated well with me, and his incredible knowledge and experience were evident throughout all the court proceedings, and especially in working with the prosecutor's office. I trust John, and highly recommend him.

John was the best attorney. He was so helpful and got me through all of my court proceedings with no issues and exactly the desired results. He was super fair with the price and so wonderful to me and my significant other. He answered all of my questions promptly and there's no doubt about it, he will fight for you! I can't thank him and his office enough for all their help.

I’m a convicted felon on parole. I had two separate new cases, both felonies. When I started with a public defender, he told me I would be going back to prison for 30 months. Period. After hiring John and his partner, for one reasonable fee, I ended up getting through both cases with road crew and more probabtion. No jail or prison time. Thank you John. Thank you Andy.

John Kolego was recommended to me by a good friend who used to be a Prosecutor and he said that John was a very formidable opponent in the courtroom. I thought this was a very strong recommendation. I called him right away and he was able to get me an appointment that morning which was a huge relief, as I was extremely scarred and nervous. When John went out of town for a short trip, his associate and his assistant were extremely helpful and responsive to my calls and emails. John himself would call me right back when I had any questions or needed any clarification. John was able to get me the very best possible outcome in my situation and I can't say how much I appreciate him and recommend him very, very HIGHLY. He kept me very abreast of everything going on and had a very calming energy about him. He is very knowledgeable about the law and is also a very kind and good person.
thanks so much for everything, Mr. Kolego.
