    John and his staff were very nice and helpful throughout the entire process. They made sure that we were able to get the best deal possible for my son and our family. He was always there and made sure that we understood the process. I highly recommend him.

    Mr. Bokenfohr and his staff where very informative and thorough and made the whole process as easy and stress free as possible. From day one was on my side and said it would be ok and let him handle it. They did wonderful on every aspect and took a lot of stress and worry off of me. They got me a really good deal and was able to help ease the burden on what was to come after. Not only was he very professional they also treated me like family and that made me comfortable and relaxed with the whole process. For anyone looking not only for a great lawyer but an absolutely amazing staff then this is your guy

    I was very disappointed with my experience working with John Bokenfohr. Communication was consistently poor—I often received little or no response to my questions, and important discussions were frequently delayed until the last minute before court. On more than one occasion, he arrived late and attempted to discuss case strategy during the proceedings rather than beforehand. I also felt he was overly passive in advocating for my interests in court. Most concerning, he withdrew from my case before it was resolved, and I do not believe the work performed justified the retainer I paid. If this level of communication and representation reflects the standard at this firm, I would not recommend its services. This review reflects my personal experience as a client.( referring to a child custody battle he showed no empathy or effort ) there has been zero progress and we're still seeking counsel this experience was a waste of time and money , I wish I could rate John bokenfohr a 0 star he hasn't gotten us access to any of the court ordered docs he doesn't return any calls when promised and in return to my communication he sends a exporte order to withdraw from said case , my goal here is to be fully transparent with this process I hope I painted the appropriate picture to save the next person from this God awful experience in the future

    My name is Scott Tubbs, and I've been around long enough to know that not all attorneys are created equal. I've hired more than a few over the years, and most of them do their job, collect their check, and go home. That's just the reality of it. John Bokenfor is different. And I mean that in the best possible way. I've worked with John on several cases. Some of them ended better than I ever expected — I walked away with more than I even asked for. A couple others were favorable. And yes, there were one or two that didn't go my way. But here's the thing — even in those, I never once felt like John wasn't in my corner with everything he had. What makes John stand out isn't just his legal ability. It's that he actually cares. When he takes your case, he takes it home with him. He thinks about it at night. He loses sleep over it. It's personal to him — the same way it's personal to you. In my experience, that kind of attorney is rare. John will fight for you like it's his own family on the line, and that is the God's honest truth. On top of that, he's one of the most honest, ethical, and morally grounded people I've met in any profession. He's a good Christian man, and his character shows in everything he does. At this point, I don't just consider John my attorney — I consider him a genuine friend. The kind you trust completely and would do anything for. If you're looking for legal representation and you want someone who is going to go to bat for you with everything he's got, call John Bokenfor. You won't find better. I'd stake my word on it.

    I have to say, when I first got in trouble I was looking at jail time. I'm not talking about little jail time, I'm talking a good little stretch. I went to John and asked him could he represent me, not going to lie he is a little pricey. Without a doubt he is the best lawyer I have ever had and ever worked with. He got me a good deal and it's all because of his personal conduct and his dedication. I appreciate him and his team. Thanks again John and you'll be on my first call list if I should ever need you again.
