Hired Attorney John W. McKendree

The EEOC process was not easy or user friendly. I had a very hard time just getting a charge filed. I contacted this law firm and I was able to get a an interview with an investigator and a charge filed. They were so helpful and knowledgeable on the process. If I file suit I will rehire Mr. Mckendree .

Mr. McKendree represented my husband in a criminal court case and everything he said would happened did happen. He is very reliable and explained in detail the process and his advice is great. He has two exceptional legal secretaries that were just a phone call away whom were just as involved and knew everything regarding the case. I would definitely keep Mr. Mckendree in mind if I ever needed a lawyer.

Hired Attorney John W. McKendree

Our family was involved in a bitter land and property dispute. John Mckendree mediated a resolution that both parties agreed on. I will always remember his words to our family when he said “Life is precious, I know what you deserve but it will only settle on what is doable.” That Statement was so true. I feel like we would have still been fighting a situation that neither party would win.

Hired Attorney John W. McKendree

Before my mother passed away she was in a guardianship. We were at a loss as to how any of that process worked. All I knew was that we needed advise and representation that we could not understand . John worked diligently to organize our paperwork, explain what them meant and advised us on what to do next. This was not easy but we did it with his help and his staffs help.

Hired Attorney John W. McKendree

I was discriminated against and I did not know any process on what to do with the hostile work environment I was working in. I reached out to the law firm and was surprised that John McKendree answered his phone in the evening on a weekend. I hired him and he walked me through all I needed to do for me to have peace of mind and Bri have my rights br protected at work.
