"I hired John as outside and general counsel for a nationwide company I founded and managed, successfully defending the interests in lawsuits, a federal matter, intellectual property rights, drafting/enforcing contracts, insuring regulatory compliance, legal litigation, strategic advice and all other legal needs. I unequivocally highly recommend John as a masterful trial and transitional lawyer as well as an excellent counselor and legal adviser.
Well, I can’t say that I was ever in the courtroom with John… because he kept us out of the court house. His thorough work on contracts, imaginative problem-solving abilities in bringing a deal to closure, his sage advice as to how to approach business challenges all represented talent and skill that are critical in making successful, profitable transactions happen. Always working with the highest level of integrity, he is also a person you just enjoy being around.
I have worked with John Price for over twenty years. He has handled my legal needs for a small business start up as well as a multinational corporation. My experience with John has been that he consistently delivers at a high level. He has drafted our operating business contracts as well as provided legal guidance regarding federal agency requirements . His approach is 360 degrees - If you want to make sure you are addressing legal items today with an eye on the the future you will find no better.
Top notch, Mr. Price has listened to my situation and has been very understanding. Highly recommended. Talking with a professional in todays world is very important.
Mr. Price has assisted me with very complex legal issues, including trademark matters and intellectual property disputes. His far-ranging litigation experience and deep knowledge of the law, including an amazing ability to find all helpful cases, make Mr. Price a go-to attorney. I have referred others to him as well.
Research and preparedness make Mr. Price a formidable front for your cause or case. I have seen his opening letter win cases. His impeccable knowledge of the law and his ability to articulate that knowledge whether written or in a courtroom is second to none. He has helped me to victory time after time. I've seen cases he's won for clients with such high profile they were talked about on national television.
John represented me in a difficult, complex case a number of years ago, when he was head of the litigation department at the Winstead law firm in Dallas. We have been friends ever since. John's new firm is currently assisting me on several new business planning matters.
