I had the pleasure of working with John and his team this past year and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. John and his team were professional, courteous and most of all incredibly effective. If I ever need legal services again I will definitely engage John Calcagni and his outstanding team again.

I highly recommend John Calcagni and his team. My daughter attends college in RI and we live in NY. She found herself in trouble and was arrested on a Disorderly Conduct matter. Our good friend is an attorney in NY and when we realized he could not represent us in RI he found a colleague who highly recommended John. From the first conversation with John, who responded to my initial message immediately, I knew we would be in good hands. He answered all questions and explained the process in as much detail as needed. He was very confident that he would get the charges dismissed. He worked closely with my daughter (his client) while keeping in touch with us, the parents. John was always attainable to us via email, text or phone call and took his time to be sure we understood each step of the case. John delivered the outcome he promised and exactly what we were looking for, we couldn't be more pleased. I would not hesitate to recommend him and (god forbid) I need assistance with the law in RI again, he would be the first call I make!! Thanks John for everything you did for our daughter!!!

I don’t know where to begin! When I first met with John, I immediately felt like I was in good hands. He is charismatic, funny and really takes the time to get to know you and get a feel for your case. He was very detail oriented and thorough and worked with me for almost two years. Through this exhausting and stressful process, he made me feel comfortable and made sure I understood what was going on every step of the way. I am so thankful I went with John and would absolutely, without a doubt recommend him to anyone who needs help.

I'm an active duty soldier and I got a DUI. I deserved the penalties and reprimands but I did not deserve to loose everything. When I was notified that I would be facing a QMP board for separation I knew I had to do all I could to fight back against it for myself and for my family. I am extremely grateful for John and his team. I had no idea about the list of standards I was up against that the board would use to determine weather or not I could keep my job and continue to support my family. Mr. Calcagni systematically itemized and proved beyond a doubt that I met and or exceeded each standard giving the board a clear picture that I still hold value to the Army. He took my personal side and my professional side along with all the legal points and drafted a rebuttal that saved my career. Had I attempted to go against the board on my own I would have surely been denied. Not because I deserved it, but because it is a battle that soldiers are not equipped to deal with on their own and the Army provides zero support. It's terrifying to think back about all that I was up against that I didn't even know about. John and his team come highly recommended and I can't thank them enough for leveling the playing field and placing the control of my career back into my hands. My family and I are forever grateful.

We retained John and firm for a police investigation. An investigation had begun with possible charges to follow. We knew we needed help. In looking at Johns CV I was most happy with his background and hired him immediately. John actually came over to our home, and talked about everything. He was wonderful. Great personality. Great knowledge of the court system and the law. John made sure it was known that we had hired him. He spoke to all and the investigation was dropped and no charges were followed.

I am a retired military officer that needed John to keep my 20yrs of service and retirement in tact. I was being blasted from all sides with a bunch high ranking folks trying to smear, discredit, and erase me. John put up a defense that made me very humble. In the end, I was able to retire honorably and keep some sense of accomplishment. He is an attorney with guts and a mastery of the law. I thank him for his service and would recommend John to anybody.

I am an Army Officer who retained Attorney John L. Calcagni III to assist with an unfortunate issue that adversely impacted my military career. John is a former Army JAG with a great deal of military law experience. If you have a military law issue (administrative or court-martial) and wish to hire civilian counsel, Attorney Calcagni is your top choice. John is responsive, knowledgeable, well-spoken, well-written, and overall, a true professional and expert in his field. I would not hesitate to call upon John again if I ever need legal representation again for an issue involving my military career. He is second to none and stands heads and shoulders above his peers. If you are in need of civilian defense counsel, call him today. You won’t be disappointed.

John is a straight shooter... I was referred to John from another attorney that I have complete trust in and needed to clear a case that could have crippled my work. John did that he was on the case and was able to completely clear the air. What better news then CASE COMPLETELY GONE, DROPPED! Great law firm! JC! Thank you!

I am a former Cadet of the United States Coast Guard Academy. In 2017 I found myself threatened by false accusations which had the potential of putting me at risk of court martial. After being blindsided by military leaders I once trusted and being held against my will in an emergency room to receive a mental evaluation, me and my family decided it was time to hire an attorney. John was my saving grace at times when I felt completely alone and had nobody on my side. As a 21 year old, I was not ready to be fighting the military let alone any run-of-the-mill legal battles. John protected me from the deceptive tricks used by investigators and advised me throughout the year-long investigation. Afterwards, we spent 4 exhaustive months together drafting appeals to my unfavorable discharge. For nearly a year and a half John constantly made time for me, regardless of arguably more pressing cases he had going on. After my final appeal I was honorably discharged from the Coast Guard which is a result I am completely satisfied with. John is personable, hardworking, and will make time for you no matter what. John is a no BS attorney and will tell it to you straight, there will be no need to doubt yourself with him on your side.

Wow! This guy is unreal. He went above and beyond for me! I am so lucky to have him as my lawyer. If it wasn’t for him I don’t know how my case would of went. Having him on my side gave my family and me a sense of well being. I’m truly blessed. I don’t think there is a better lawyer out there!

I hired John's firm after my arrest in Aug of 2017. John and his staff were very knowledgeable and attentive to my case. We were trying to get evidence suppressed from my arrest which unfortunately we lost the motion. Even when the motion was lost John and Nicole were diligent and determined to continue to fight for the best outcome for me. John's office was committed right up to my sentencing and we were able to get probation and avoided jail time, which was a very good outcome for my case.Nobody can predict what will happen in a court case and no outcome is guaranteed, however it should be known that this firm will represent you and fight hard for the best outcome from the minute you hire them until your case is dismissed, won or you are sentenced.I am happy to have hired John and relieved with the outcome in my case. I was faced with fear, doubt and confussion when i was arrested. John was able to help with all the feelings and allow for a good outcome.Thank you.

Back in 2017 I got myself into some trouble while struggling with personal problems. Without getting too in depth I was facing jail time and the forever scarring mark of a felony on my record. I’m so thankful I came across calcagni law. John represented me through both district and superior court. Not only did he successfully dismiss the felony charge but he also made me completely avoid jail time. His professionalism and insight is amazing, he truly is the best. I couldn’t recommend John more if you ever have a bump in the road. I put my full faith and trust in calcagni law firm. John, thank you again for everything, especially for helping me to be able to be around for my beautiful wife and daughter. I owe you more than can be described.

John went above and beyond my expectations. He is very knowledgeable, does his homework thouroughly, and knows how to win.i saw only one trial before mine. Compared to John , it looked like a theatrical play of what a bad lawyer is like. John was confident and in control at all times, due to the fact that he was obviously extremely well prepared. I would highly recommend John. He definitely went the extra Mile for me! Be assured, he is worth every penny!

Raymond Lapointe

19:33 04 May 19

John and his staff were amazing. While facing the most difficult time of my life, John went out of his way to ensure I got the best possible deal. He worked with my family and I on a fair and easy payment plan, and he was there for me every step of the way. He would meet me before all court dates and explain how everything would go down and he was spot on every time. He eased my mind tremendously going into stressful situations. Thank you John and staff for working so hard for us, and for affording me precious extra months with my family.

Five stars is an understatement. John Calcagni and his legal team were nothing short of amazing. From the initial consultation to the case being resolved they were professional and had one goal in mind. That's representing me as a client and accepting nothing less then a best case scenario outcome. Charges being dismissed. I highly suggest you getting legal representation no matter what your legal situation may be and for the best outcome settle for nothing less then the BEST JOHN CALCAGNI and his legal firm!!

John was an invaluable resource during my recent legal issue. Having never been in this situation before, I found John’s contact info online and gave the office a call. I was able to speak to John himself and made an appointment to meet with him later that night outside of normal business hours, which I was grateful for. When I met with him he was very professional and empathetic to my situation. After learning a bit about him and his career and accomplishments, he provided me with all the information I needed and explained the next steps and processes; I had no reservation in retaining him once I met with him. While everything was eventually dismissed, I’m glad he was there to communicate with law enforcement on my behalf so I could focus on moving forward. I would never hesitate to retain him again.

Super Lawyer! John and his staffs saved me from an emergent legal situation in New Bedford. They successfully bailed me out and defended it for me all the way down.

Atty. Calcagni was extremely helpful and effective in handling a difficult military matter for my daughter as she transitioned from a college ROTC program into the US Navy. His experience as a former JAG attorney and knowledge of military procedures and regulations was invaluable in guiding my daughter through the process. He was always responsive, professional, and caring. Even following up months later he remembered the details of my daughter's case . Highly recommended.

John and his team are excellent! He took my case to trial where the DA thought they had a sure win and he turned it around and got me a win. It was amazing seeing John live in action. He is as good as if not better of what you see in the Youtube videos of him in the court room. I am truly impressed and highly recommend!

Kristen Mauro

23:15 11 Sep 19

Attorney John Calcagni came highly recommended through family. He’s represented my husbands family for a few criminal cases and has done an amazing job. John was right there from the moment my husband was bailed out and worked diligently from beginning to end. I’ve never had any issues contacting John at any time night or day, he will respond. John is like having a lawyer at your hands 24/7. He has always made me feel welcome anytime I’ve had to visit his office. When my son found himself with some legal issues John didn’t hesitate to take my sons case which had a great outcome. There’s been several situations over the last three years where I’ve needed legal representation and if he wasn’t able to personally be there for me John made sure he referred me to a trusted colleague. My family is finally done with these legal issues but if at any time we found ourselves in need of representation, we wouldn’t hesitate to call John.

Stephanie Davis

00:22 14 Sep 19

John is quite simply a brilliant attorney. He's represented me in a series of related legal issues, and no matter the stakes he is up to the challenge of every case. He's an amazing communicator and litigator...unsurpassed expertise displayed most recently during my military separations board. Retaining John is your best chance at achieving a successful outcome!

In addition to one-on-one meetings, the office staff are quick to reach by phone in case you need any other support services.

Gianna George

22:58 03 Oct 19

We are appreciative of John and his team. We live out of state, so I was dependent on reviews to select an attorney to handle our issue. John returned phone calls quickly, even calling several Friday evenings after 9pm to update us. We appreciated the professional manner he quickly handled multiple situations, wrapping everything up a month earlier than anticipated. I would highly recommend John to anyone in need of an attorney!

anne gonzalez

00:12 29 Oct 19

I would highly recommend John Calcagni & Associates. On two separate occasions I had the pleasure of having them represent me. They worked hard and diligently to have both my cases dismissed in separate states. They are very professional, easy to communicate with, and will go above in beyond for you. If in the future I needed an attorney, I wouldn’t hesitate to outreach them again for their services.

Dan Pab

John C. and John P. were fantastic! They made the whole process less stressful. If I ever had need of legal services again they would be my first call. I wish I could give them more than five stars. They were professional and reassuring. Most of all they cared. I'm very happy with my experience and will suggest them to anyone I know if they are ever in need. If you need legal counsel these are the guys you want.

Phil Scavitti

01:43 21 Dec 19

Having unfortunately had more than my fair share of complex encounters with the criminal justice systems in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts, I can without a doubt tell you that these are the guys you want behind you in any legal situation. Every positive asset that would put an attorney at the top ranks, these men display for all of their clients. Not only are they pro's at what they do, but they genuinely care about every client they meet. I don't just know I have the best lawyers around, I feel like I have two people that have and will forever continue to look after me like I am apart of their family. If you're looking for not just another 5 star attorney, but for that one person that will go that extra mile for you, then these are your guys. I have and will continue to recommend them to everyone I meet with any legal issue. Trust me when I say the Johns will not disappoint!

Nicholas Silvernail

21:17 07 Jan 20

This man is a beast! His professionalism, and his work ethic are second to none. When dealing with a legal issue, there is very little you are in control of.

Matthew Koban

When you learn someone you love has a heart attack or cancer, your immediate action is to get them connected to the best doctor who specializes in that field.That same logic should be applied when it involves legal matters.

Most people joke about how much they hate lawyers and I am one of those people. Sometimes in life though things happen where only a good lawyer can help. John was one of the three lawyers I decided to “interview” to handle my case and I immediately felt that he was the right lawyer for the job. He had me doing homework for my case before he received the signed agreement and my check. I believe his prompt action and the thorough groundwork he laid for my case were the reason my case was closed before I was even charged with anything. The most important thing he did for me, beside the legal work, was reassuring my wife that everything was going to be ok and not to worry. After she met John in person, her worry level dropped dramatically. (mine too for that matter) I highly recommend John if for any reason you find yourself in need of an outstanding criminal defense lawyer. If you call 911 you expect to get emergency treatment and calling John is like that. He doesn’t leave you hanging and works your case like it’s an emergency! He’s also a very nice person with a good sense of humor, just don’t offer to buy him a Dunkin coffee…you can ask him why not when you hire him.

Rich Lowry

18:15 09 Apr 20

I was recently released from prison due to John calcagni. I was sentenced to 4 1/2 years an served under 2 years his work is really good. I couldn’t be any happier with this law firm, I recommend John calcagni to anyone who needs a lawyer who will actually fight to win or get you the best deal possible !

Tyjuan Carter

21:23 29 May 20

I've dealt with John & his firm for over 5 yrs. He's got me through two cases both state and federal with great outcomes. Ive also referred them to other people and are more then happy with there own experience. The firms communication and professionalism is amazing even on a weekend John never missed a phone call. I've never had to ask for case documents or court date reminders because they stay on top of everything John unlike other lawyers ive encountered is not one that you have to chase around for information. He is very knowledgeable ,honest ,direct and does not sugar coat anything. Nicki his paralegal is nothing but the best very friendly and always willing to help.

Five Stars is not a high enough rating for John and his team. He and his team are thorough, quick to respond, and provided sound counsel on military related administrative hearings. John was personally vested into my case and helped me get the results desired. I would strongly recommend his counsel for anyone in the Army.
