Hired Attorney John S. Berry

This lawyer was very upfront, and explained my rights as a client very clearly. Furthermore, this lawyer was very quick to respond to any and all of my concerns or questions. This lawyer understood the law and the rights of the client as well as the process for which I retained a lawyer for. I was impressed by the tenacity, skill, and commitment to winning, and depth of knowledge regarding constitutional rights this attorney and the law firm stands by.

Hired Law Firm

I highly recommend requesting Berry Law Firm to represent you before the VA. Seth Chambers has been my advocate throughout the process and without his counsel and direction I would have never received my increased rating. The countless hours he has put into my case is evident he is 100% fighting for you. The entire team at the firm is there to help you. I can't thank you all enough for the continued work you for me and your clients.

I would recommend John and his team to anyone in need of quality legal services. The Team at Berry Law Firm was not only responsive and provided excellent advice, but it did so in a timely and compassionate matter. Realizing that the firm likely had hundreds of matters going at once, the team went out of its way to assure me that my case was a priority and that it would get the attention it deserved and that I was hoping for. In addition to being counselors at law, the Team at Berry Law were also compassionate and understanding to the various perspectives involved. I would recommend them to anyone, including my closest friends and family if in need.

Hired Attorney John Stevens Berry

In a world where even the smallest details are often ignored, the team at Berry Law has not only met but exceeded all my expectations. As a fellow veteran, John has taken the time to reach out to me personally to make sure I am doing ok while we wait on the quagmire that is the Veterans Administration. This personal touch has and will continue to be the driving force for me to hang on at those times where hope seems lost. Semper Fi

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
