				Mr. Baxter (John) was a surprise to me. I was expecting someone rushed, busy, a little arrogant and of little time to spare (as my experience with attorneys in the past proved.) Instead he was genuine, well educated and versed in his field, gave undivided attention and time for my son and his case. He came prepared, wasn't intimidated nor was he willing to "simmer down" when things became challenging. We are confident having Mr. Baxter arguing my son's case, defending and guiding him through one of the most difficult chapter's of our lives. I think his youth gives him an edge I wasn't expecting. With John defending my son I am comforted and confident knowing that Truth, Integrity and Hard Working Attention will be given to win his case. Thank you Mr. Baxter (in advance) you have my sincere gratitude.
