I am an immigration attorney in Memphis, Tennessee, and I recently worked with John when one of my clients was facing criminal charges. What immediately impressed me about John was his deep knowledge of local practices, which helped us narrow down the avenues to favorably resolve the client's situation. Just as important, I bore witness to John's compassion and heart in representing our mutual client. Never once was there a tone of superiority. He stood by the client instead of on top of her.
John is a trusted professional. My family and I have benefited greatly from his expertise and passion. He cares deeply about the best outcomes and works thoughtfully through details to get results. We have been well served by he and his office, wouldn't hesitate to call on him again, and recommend him fully.

I could not be happier with the information I received from John Meadows. He is extremely professional, down to earth, and easy to communicate with. John was responsive to my phone calls, email, and questions. John assisted in giving me direction to make the right decision. John also followed up afterwords which was great!
I highly recommend John Meadows. He was upfront,thorouhly explained the process, and provided me with the information I needed to make informed decisions. I truly believe he had my family's best interest in mind during the whole process. His preparedness is second to none. I don't think anyone else could have yielded the same results. While no one really wins in a divorce, I didn't walk away feeling like a loser. Not using John would be a disservice to you and your family. I can't say enough.
John and his team did an outstanding job representing me during a pending litigation. He was very up front and honest and kept me well informed throughout the process. In the end he was to achieve the results we were both hoping for. I would highly recommend him with any legal matters.
John Meadows is a hard worker. He is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for you. He was very helpful to me on a recent child support issue.
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.
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.
