For those seeking a family lawyer, I wholeheartedly endorse John and his team members, Greg and Chantelle. Their collective expertise and genuine concern for their clients make them exceptional in their field. John consistently demonstrated professionalism, knowledge, and insightful advice. I always had full confidence that he prioritized the well-being of my children. John's candid and direct approach ensured I was well-prepared for the realities of my situation. Despite their busy schedule, I felt fully supported and informed by the team throughout my case. Moreover, I appreciated the fair and transparent billing practices of John and his team, a significant departure from my previous experience with a different family law firm.

John assisted me on two separate occasions, and both times he proved to be exceptionally honest and dedicated. He worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible results. In my most recent case, he went above and beyond, even tracking someone down, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend John—he is both an outstanding lawyer and a genuinely great person.

Working with John was a seamless process. He's incredibly knowledgable and knows the process in and out. He took on my family law case, which had some complicated aspects to it and won the case for me. He truly believes in what he does and is an amazing lawyer. I would pick John over and over for any matter that required a lawyer. 5 stars is not enough for the rating I would give him. Minimum 10/5.

John Chandler is the one you want in your corner when you’re trying to navigate challenging litigation. I had been in contact with over 20 different lawyers to no avail, prior to being recommended to Mr. Chandler by a co-worker. When I presented him with an extremely unusual case he went right to work. Given the subject of the case he immediately got on the phone trying to reach out and ask questions to other professionals whom he thought may have been a better fit given it was a complicated cross over between Family and Estate Law. When he was unable to find a suitable fit, he stepped up immediately

John is an amazing lawyer, he has gone above and beyond in a nightmare of a family court case. John took on an extremely difficult case and encountered issues that no one expected and few lawyers had ever seen. His knowledge of family law is exceptional and his compassion to me and my family is outstanding. He is very responsive to all questions and concerns in a timely matter. John was very confident and calm in court during difficult proceedings which will lead us to success. We still have a long road ahead of us, there is no other lawyer I would recommend.

John has been an amazing lawyer helping our family through a difficult situation. He fights hard, knows the law and is honest with you regarding what he can do for you. When things were looking hopeless or events made things stressful he would go above and beyond in helping alleviate whatever stresses he could and not only provide hope but work hard to rectify injustices his clients are facing in family law. I cannot thank him enough. No matter how stressful the experience has been I know John will do whatever is necessary to get a fair outcome for his clients. Thank you again

It was my lucky day when I walked into John's office. I had been with another lawyer, and came out of their office, after every appointment, upset and depressed. John impressed me with his empathy, his quick grasp of the situation and his tenaciousness. He was honest with me, but didn't leave me with no hope. John is like a dog with a bone; he looks at the issues from all sides and remains flexible throughout the process. On top of that he was kind and intense. I really recommend John to represent you in your case. I greatly benefited from his talent and compassion. Frances McLachlan

John Chandler changed my life forever. My divorce was hard and a little scary, but I trusted John and did what he said. Since the day I went into his office, things got better. John had a plan for me and it worked, he is clever. My affidavit response was brilliant. Most people think that lawyers are in it for the money and that the lawyers always win. Well, I feel like I won after what I went through. John saved me a ton of money. He also advised me to be fair and reasonable. Listen to him, even when you aren't sure of the outcome. I will never forget this experience. I have my freedom now. As
