He began working diligently on the case and patiently answered all of our questions and concerns, either in person or by phone/text messages. John was thorough and came up with an extensive defense which exceeded far beyond our expectations... always focusing on the facts and advocating for the first amendment rights of our son. He exudes confidence, intelligence, professionalism while still maintaining a sense of humour. John's honesty and hard work ethic paid off and he was able to get the charges dropped. We would give him a 10 star rating if possible!! Other defense lawyers would not put in the effort required to win.. but John did!! Do yourself a favour and hire JohnMark/Brenda P.
East from East Law... you will not regret it!! Thank you John for never giving up and fighting until the end, we are very grateful!

I made it clear I had limited resources and was looking for legal advice on a neighbour dispute that was getting out of hand with police involvement. Mr. East listened extremely well without judgement and gave me very cogent legal advice. Ultimately he did not think it was a good use of my limited funds to hire him as he believed my issues were not meant for a court room as the matter was a non-criminal event though police had become involved. Ultimately, his advice (free) to just avoid my neighbour was so common sense even if my ego could not see that prior to Mr. East’s involvement. He explained how quickly a neighbour, or any dispute, can become a criminal matter if one does not act prudent. Thank you Mr. East for your good will, patience, and sage legal advice in not one, but two courtesy consultations. You are such a gentleman to be so gracious and generous with your time.

He was flexible, prompt, thorough, prepared, and professional. He clearly explained my situation, what his representation could offer vs. self representation and I immediately hired him. He is affordable but also saved me thousands of dollars in the long term. Mr. East was able to construct a deal with prosecution to remove regularly mandatory jail time, and massively reduce my license suspension too. Due to Mr. East’s work, my outcome was the very best possible, and I couldn’t be more grateful He saved my marriage, career, and well being. Thank you forever John. Read lessEamonn K.

Since then, I have been dealing with the stress and remorse of being involved in a horrible situation and feeling crippled by the impact that it took on my life. I have developed a weight crushing anxiety disorder and have been unable to be positive in my life leaving me burdened with depression that had me constantly drowning from the gravity of my troubles. I felt that I would never recover.... Insert Mr. John East. Through some grace of chance this lawyer accepted my case and immediately began to reassure and guide me through the proceedings. During my trail he was well spoken, courageous and the true embodiment of a commanding presence in the court room. I was expecting the worst, but watching him in action was something to behold. It sounds as if I'm using hyperbole to describe him but I believe that I am being conservative in my accounting of his work. If you don't know where I'm going with this by now; He won. I now have a new found wave of energy and focus and have been tackling life as my best self possible. I can breathe againI HIGHLY recommend this lawyer and wish him nothing but the absolute best in his long career. Thank you for everything.Ryan B. Read lessRyan B.
