Mr. Ventosa represented me in a criminal case -- he took over for another lawyer who was less communicative and not making advances on my case. Mr. Ventosa and his team were very attentive to my needs; he took my calls and/or responded promptly via phone and email; he made sure I understood what was going on and was comfortable with my choices. I highly recommend his representation!
John was very helpful throughout what was a very stressful process - he helped me through every step of the way and was able to get me the best result possible. Cannot say enough about the level of professionalism and am grateful to have had John in my corner.
John was an absolute professional from the start and truly cares about his clients. I could have not asked for a better lawyer who did everything he could to get the best result for my case. His entire staff was helpful throughout the whole process.
John was extremely kind and alleviated a lot of my anxiety around my case. He got to work right away and the case was dismissed within a month. It was a really scary time for me but he made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire time he was representing me. Would recommend him a thousand times.
I found myself in some trouble and John was quick to assure me not to worry. John was not only a great lawyer but felt like a pal also. He breaks things down and tells it how it is. I hope to never need a attorney again but if I do I’ll definitely use John.
We found John to be professional and very informative about the legal process and what might happen in court. There was a range of possibilities on how the court could respond to the charges. We had the best possible outcome. It was a relief and a hard lesson for my son. We highly recommend John.
Not only was John willing to take my case, but he took the time to explain things and to answer any questions I had. He was reassuring and honest about all possibilities. In the end, the outcome was better than I ever expected.
I hired McCabe Coleman Ventosa & Patterson PLLC for assistance with a traffic violation. The entire time I received exceptional client service. All of my questions along the way were answered in a very professional manor. I would hands down recommend their services to anyone.
I hired John to represent my son. He and his staff were very helpful and responsive to all my concerns. He negotiated a settlement that I was extremely pleased with. John is very knowledgeable and easy to speak with. I am very grateful for all his hard work and would highly recommend John to other perspective clients.
John Ventosa represented me in a recent DWI case and I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney to represent me. He was very thorough when asking me about the details of my case as well as explaining to me possible outcomes. From the moment you talk to John you get the feeling he is on your side and will do his best for you and that’s exactly what you get. He was ultimately able to get me a reduced charge and made sure I was happy with that outcome. John is also extremely efficient, I thought my case might drag on for a month or more but he was able to achieve a desirable outcome for me in a fraction of the time. I would highly recommend John to anyone in need of legal help or advice. You’d be hard pressed to find a better attorney to represent you. I hope I don’t need legal representation in the future, however, if I do you can be sure John will be my first call.
