When you need a real trial lawyer
Attorney John Hadden is a trial lawyer, not just a settlement lawyer. Although most cases resolve prior to trial, you need a lawyer who knows how to try a case and prepares the case from the beginning with trial in mind. John's extensive knowledge of the law, as reflected in multiple published books, as well as his articles and dozens of seminar speaking engagements, earns him the respect of judges and opposing counsel.
