John MacDonald provided exceptional support and guidance throughout my entire legal process. From the moment I walked into his office, he explained exactly what he would do to resolve my case and what I could expect. His communication was clear and consistent, and everything unfolded just as he described on day 1. The cost was transparent from the start—no surprises: an affordable and predictable rate. John's experience and expertise in Rhode Island are second to none. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a top-tier criminal defense lawyer.

I hired John to be my lawyer after I was charged with a serious crime that I was no guilty of. John believed in me every step of the way and represented me with professionalism and honor. The communication from John and his office help to keep my family and I at ease. When it was clear my case would be going to trial John gave me all the facts so I could make an informed decision. During the lead up to the trial John laid out his strategy but let me make the final decision. After a trial I was found not guilty after a masterful defense from John. The jury deliberated for less than an hour and a half before returning their verdict. John is without a doubt the best in the business, lawyers came to my trial just to observe him at his work. If you need the best lawyer available to represent you than look no further than John Macdonald, because he can save your life like he did mine.

John provided an awesome defense for my son and I will be forever grateful for what he did. He believed in my son as much as I did and made sure that he gets to live the rest of his life free. He was extremely caring, genuine and intelligent. He was honest and was up front about everything. I hope to never have to hire him again but through this process he has become a friend of our family and we will be forever grateful. Oh and by the way he loves warm hugs from grateful mothers.

Best experience working with John macdonal Very professional he went over and beyond with my case I will recommend John 100% His team Always communicated quickly Answer any questions I’m grateful for his service

If anyone is waffling on the expense, John and everyone at his practice are more than worth it. They will go up to bat for you, and have fantastic follow through.

We hired John on recommendation to help our son in a horrible allegation that had no proof and a very dire outcome of 10-life incarceration. After he was contacted, John went immediately to the facility and spoke to my son. He got him out of incarceration and on his way home in two days on bail. He came highly recommended and is worth the weight of the world in gold. I cannot praise him enough or thank him enough for being so prompt and thorough with the whole process. He is very genuine and was honest with an optimistic outlook on the outcome in our case. He knows what he’s doing and how to get it done. Thank you so much John for all your expertise, professionalism and concern for our son and ourselves.

I had a serious DUI charge in 2019 due to my immigration status I couldn’t have that in my record, so I found John McDonalds who is amazing lawyer he changed my DUI to simple reckless driving that help led me so much in the long run I would highly recommend him to anyone he does what a lawyer suppose to do gets the job done thank you again.

From the moment I contacted Attorney MacDonald, I was in the best possible legal care and counsel I could be in. He never waivered in his professionalism and expertise with my case. The legal system is frightening, but not when he is on your team.

John is an excellent attorney. He was very thorough and responsive and settled my concerns about my case.

I walked into John's office anxious and afraid, on recommendation from a friend. John listened carefully to everything I said, recognized I was in a fragile state, and calmly told me how my case was going to unfold - and not to worry. He was exactly right. John has done this thousands of times, his experience and knowledge are invaluable. He is your guy. Thank you, John.

From the beginning of my case, I knew John was the real deal. A hard hitter. A no BS type of guy. Working with John was smooth, straight to the point, fearlessly strategic, quick on the spot, and one hell of a memory for quotes of wisdom and inspiration. Myself as well as my family could rest assured knowing that at the drop of a hat, John would answer your call and explain everything you need to know in full detail. As professional as it gets but also makes you feel like family. No matter the case. Big or small. CALL JOHN MACDONALD!!!

For the last 2 years john stuck by my son and my family never faltering and always making sure that we were well protected. My son was on trial for murder when it was a clear cut self defense case. John always believed in not only my son but the evidence. He put together an amazing defense and guided us thru every step of the process. The end result was my son was cleared of all charges and after two years has his life back and can now look forward. So if you need a lawyer there is not a better one in the state. And to john when you read this me and my whole family thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being there for us every step of the way!!
