If there were a zero, I would have chosen it! He took our money and convinced us we had a great case! Now my friend is in prison for 40 years!! He did NOTHING in his case!

If you are wanting to hire this attorney, please contact me and I'll show you proof as to why you should not!!

He seems to be very knowledgeable on DWIs, but honestly it didn't really seem like he did a whole lot for me. While it is nice to have someone experienced in these matters to do the paperwork and correspondence with the court, beyond that there really was not a lot that he did. I thought the communication could have been better during pre court. There were things that I had brought up to him that he wanted me to look into even though this is exactly what I am paying him for... I was told I had court just a couple of days before the court date, and before this time there was no communication as to what the prosecution is offering. I was just told a couple of days before my court date what my options were and he was not real clear on the terms of the probation, and there was no talk after our initial visit of possibly taking my case to trial. It was just here is what they offered, and this is when your court date is. He comes off like he is really going to fight hard for you, but the plea deal I got is basically the standard DWI plea deal that I probably could have got with a court appointed lawyer and therefore I would have saved $6k! Also there were things on my probation that I was not even aware of until the day of my court date. Of course at this point you basically don't have much of a choice but to just go along with it and sign it. I'm not saying that he's not a good DWI lawyer, but he definitely is not worth his $6k retainer fee if all you are going to do is take a plea deal. If you're taking a plea deal you might as well just save your money and go with a court appointed lawyer. Now if you want to take your case to trial then this may be where the money would be worth it, but be prepared to pay an additional $8k if you want to take your case to trial!

The worst lawyer you can get. Just wants your money to do nothing for your case. Court appointed lawyer could have done the same thing and saved us 6k. Kept pushing to get paid more in order to go to trial, when he hasn't been communicating with us at all and expects us to know everything. Just another money hungry salesman.

John Eastland has developed a reputation in East Texas for being a relentless, tenacious advocate for his clients in DUI cases. John once went to a hearing and announced that he had been hired to represent a DUI defendant and the prosecutor quietly muttered ”Oh Crap” under his breath. That’s what you want the prosecutor to say when your lawyer shows up.

Very helpful informative guy. I know hands down he would of won my case. He was out of my price range.

John came thru for my daughter and I twice. I couldn’t ask for more.

Mr. John Eastland is always there and ready to get the job done. He’s helpful, reassuring, and always up to date with all that you need. He never leaves you in “limbo”, he is 100% honest and open all of the time-never leaves you without an answer, and is always on time. I wouldn’t have been able to survive the past few months if it weren’t for Mr. Eastland, and I’m so beyond thankful for him and his business every single day. You need a good, no, a great lawyer? John Eastland is whom you need to pick! Along with his assistant, Trish, whom is also wonderful and just as helpful, you’d be beyond words greatful to have these two to help you through thick and thin. -Kellen E.

I am very pleased with the service provided. Mr Eastland was up front about the challenges of my case but very confident in his process. He kept me updated on the progress and had excellent communication with me. I hope I never need an attorney again but you can bet he will be the first one I call should I need any legal assistance!

Hired him as my lawyer for my recent case , from start to finish he was very responsive and answered every question I had looking forward to my case.! Thank god for him my mind was at ease even at my court date.Highly Recommend

John Eastland is the best DUI lawyer in the state of Texas! All charges dropped with ease with Eastland!

Mr. Eastland and his staff wasted no time getting straight work. Very professional, couldn't have asked for better. I 100% recommend him and his services.
