Ive had John represent me on a few misdemeanor and traffic cases a few years ago. I wasn't able to afford much but he took my cases anyways and worked out a payment plan with me as well. I have a degree in criminal justice and also shared my interest in working and adding to my resume as well. He allowed me to work for his office for a year answering phones, drafting documents, cleaning, getting his office organized. And I learned so much from him. Trying to jugle attorney life, visiting his grandkids, and helping people time and time again. He was blunt and sarcastic at times but he was also realistic and logical. He never over promised. He was proffessional and a caring person who would reach out to help people in need whenever possible. Great attorney!
I was facing a second degree felony and i wasn't happy with my appointed layer, but ery private lawyer i talked to was out of my price range. Mr Gillespie was expensive, but he worked out a payment plan that I was able to live with. Thank god he did, because i am now a freeman thanks to his amazing work. I never plan to get in trouble again but I would highly recommend him to anyone who does.
I had a very serious juvenile case, so my parents hired John Gillespie. At first, I thought he was way too old! But I eventually learned that he was extremely efficient in his knowledge of the law and of technology. I HIGHLY recommend John Gillespie!
John is awesome! A friend refered me to him. He was great! My case was complicated, but not for John. I had no bond on a misdemeanor because I had fta. It was my first (and only) charge ever, I allegedly had a weed pipe, got a citation and missed court. I had to wait 42 days to see the judge. On the day I had court and was supposed to get time served, my judge was sick. They took me to the court house and sent me back to jail. John wasn't having this. He got me a substitute judge and got me out. He actually sent his partner, Tracey. She's a tiger. My judge was sick for two weeks. John, you rock. You would answer if I called on Sunday night. Great lawyer, even better person. I'll never call anyone else!
Mr. Gillespie was recommended to me by a friend who had used his representation in the past. My first interaction with him was when I called collect from jail and he answered, not knowing any other information other than my location and my name. He never promised me anything, other than to fight like hell, and obviously that’s what he did. My offer was 24 months prison being as though I had shown that I couldn’t handle being in the real world with four violations of probation. Mr. Gillespie not only did a remarkable job of getting me out of jail, he did it with a 4 month jail offer that I had already served, and he did it over Christmas. while waiting for the Public Defender’s office to even to come talk about the facts of my case, I sat 2 months not knowing a thing. Within 3 days of hiring him, he was at the jail face to face talking to me, reassuring me that I was not going to prison, even though I was told that if I were to see that same judge, that I would be up the road before I could blink. I would NEVER use the services of another lawyer. John won’t promise you anything, but let his track record speak for itself. He’s a selfless individual who cares about every person he encounters.
I hired John to represent me for my DUI case that I had in Kissimmee. Knowing that I had a number of positive attributes to my case, I knew I stood a chance at beating this DUI in court. Before I hired John, I had consulted with several other attorneys who simply wanted a plea arrangement with the state, rather than reviewing the facts entirely and fighting for their client. This wasn't the only factor, all of the other attorney's wanted a lot of money to take my case. John worked out a payment arrangement with me that I could afford! John and I decided to take my case to trial, knowing that a jury needed to hear my case and decide on their own as to what decision to make. When trial day came, John and I were ready to make our case. Before the trial began, John went up and discussed this case with the judge and explained our side of the case. After their discussion, John came to me in the court room and said, "I need to speak to you outside." We walked out in the hallway, and John told me that the Judge agreed that the state didn't have the evidence for a conviction and dismissed the case. How freaking cool is that? If you need a criminal defense attorney, look no further. John is by far one of the best attorney's out there! He will fight for you, he knows the system very well, and he knows his defense! I would hire John again in an instant if I ever need to again. Don't hesitate. Pick up the phone and call him. He'll listen to your story and give you an honest recommendation!
AVVO.com Review your lawyer: John Gillespie Daytona Beach: DAYTONA'S BEST I hired Mr.Gillespie because my friend was so happy with how he handled her case. Hewas always available by phone, even after hours and on weekends. He is so patient and never talked down to me. And I never had to even go to court. Very happy.
Mr. Gillespie went above and beyond what he should have had to do. My son lives in Missouri so he had to take a bus home. Mr. Gillespie helped me buy him a bus ticket and drove him to Orlando to catch the bus. He worked a miracle to get my son sent home. He is a great lawyer.
I called Mr. Gillespie to get some legal advice, because like most people when it come to the courts you need help with all the red tape, etc. Mr. Gillespie walked me through all of the ugly stuff and made sure I understood all aspects of the case. It was like dealing with a family friend. What a blessing it was dealing with someone with high standards and integrity during a difficult time.
Mr. Gillespie was absolutely amazing! He came to the jail and visited with me atleast once a week, he was very honest & caring! He made sure i felt at ease with our decisions & was very confident! Mr. Gillespie will always be my number one choice if i ever may need him again, & is always my number 1 recommendation.
