Testimonials

"John is phenomenal! His staff immediately took me under their wing and he truly became like family to me. A couple of years ago I was involved in an animal attack that truly changed my life. They maintained integrity and humanity in every way to properly navigate my ordeal. I cannot recommend this firm enough, hands down."

- Tiana Mapp

"My experience with John was very pleasant. He was warm and approachable. He treated me with care, just like a family member. He has clear and effective communication skills. He responded promptly to all messages and concerns. Because of his approach, I felt like I had known him my entire life. His availability and empathy helped us build a relationship of trust. His credibility allowed me the peace of knowing that my case was in good hands. I am absolutely certain that the positive outcome of my dispute and resulting compensation were the result of his knowledge and dedication. I am convinced that I wouldn't have had a similar result with another lawyer. Without a doubt, I give John my highest recommendations. I want to take the opportunity of this space to thank him once again for his commitment and hard work on my case."

"John is so wonderful to work with! We had contacted several different personal injury lawyers after being in a car accident while 6 months pregnant; John stood out from them all because of his empathy, confidence and genuine desire to help. He is very patient, easy to reach and always responsive. He’s an excellent lawyer who, aside from helping us reach an excellent settlement, gave us really great general life/car insurance advice. We are so grateful that he was recommended to us by a friend and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a personal injury lawyer who genuinely cares about his clients!"

- Makrina Williams

"John is a gem and I'm tremendously glad that I connected with him. Wanting to put my accident behind me ASAP and minimize time and energy spent toward that end, I made the rookie mistake of attempting to settle on my own. I eventually reached an impasse with the insurance company but simply couldn't bring myself to accept their settlement offer. Drained by all the back-and-forth at this point, I didn't thoroughly research options (which is, ironically, a big part of my reason for not obtaining a lawyer in the first place - there are an overwhelming number of personal injury lawyers in the area!) and simply contacted the first lawyer from whom, simply put, I got a good Google vibe - enter John. That positive impression was immediately confirmed via our first phone call (for which he made himself available that very same day) and further cemented throughout subsequent meetings. John exceeded expectations in every metric, netting me over double the initial offer despite my less-than-ideal handling of everything at the outset. He answered every question I had with ease and honesty and was always available and communicative throughout the process. John is personable, compassionate, transparent, and very good at what he does! I can't recommend him highly enough - hope to never need him again but if so, he will now be my first text!"

"John is an amazing person before he is an amazing lawyer. He understands how I feel as an injured person from an auto accident, very depressed and sad. He came to me like a savior and an angel, especially from a long long distance where I couldn't get anybody else's help. Throughout 2 years of long suffering period of litigation, John's attitude was consistently secure, kind and compassionate so I could keep my hopes up. Finally I got an amazing result that compensated all of my sufferings and pains and more. Thank you! John! Excellent person! Excellent lawyer! Two Thumbs up for you!"

"I’ve never written a Google review but felt compelled to write about my experience with the Law firm of Mesirow and Associates. I contacted John Mesirow in 2015 after being involved in a car accident. I was extremely impressed by Mr. Mesirow’s honesty and professionalism. During the entire process Mr Mesirow and his staff kept me up to date with all developments and continued to speak with me at length about any of my concerns. John’s experience, knowledge and relationships with insurance adjuster’s resulted in a settlement beyond all expectations. I highly recommend John Mesirow and Associates to anyone who needs legal representation. This has been the most positive experience for me and I wish google would allow me to give Mr. Mesirow 10 stars because he’s a gifted attorney who truly cares about his clients."

- John Martino

"I just want to thank you and the team for all your hard work and efforts. The job you all do makes things so much easier for people like me who need counsel for representation. I will continue to use Mesirow & Associates as my representatives whenever the need arises. I’ll continue to refer individuals as well because I know they will not be disappointed and they’ll receive the best professional representation in the region and country. Thanks & Greatly Appreciated"

"If you are a cyclist and are involved in an accident, I highly recommend John Mesirow. After my daughter – who is a competitive cyclist – was hit, I found John on the web. I’m sure there are many other good attorneys out there who handle bicycle cases, but I chose to call John because of the extremely positive Google reviews, including several from cyclists, and because he rides to work every day, on the street, in Maryland and Washington DC. I can say without reservation that I made the right choice. When we met with John, both my daughter and I were immediately at ease, and left that meeting feeling confident that the claim was in very good hands. I also appreciated having John’s cell number, which he said he gives to all of his clients in case they need to speak with him after hours or on the weekend. Additionally, John made the process – which was all new to me – so easy and painless. Most importantly (other than my daughter’s recovery from the collision), the case was resolved favorably. Just ask my daughter."

"Dear John: I would like to thank you and your firm for the exceptional work on my case. A journey that began with uncertainty and fear has come to closure with appreciation and confidence. I will never forget the patience and transparency that you have practiced throughout the settlement process. The explaining of every detail and scenario beforehand, making yourself available through multiple communication channels for any questions that I have had. Professionalism at its highest pinnacle is what I have experienced at Mesirow & Associates. I highly send my recommendation to any person who wants the best representation from one of the most distinguished lawyers in the Washington DC, Metropolitan area. Again I want to say thank you John for being there throughout my legal process."

- Jamere Clark, Prince George County, Maryland

"John, I just got back from abroad and I wanted to drop you a note thanking you for your work on my case. I’m totally satisfied with your work and I wouldn’t hesitate to give your name to anyone in a similar situation. Take care. Thanks"

- Ned Mitchell, Washington, DC bicycle accident victim

"I was in a car wreck in 1996 and went to John Mesirow. It is now 18 years later, and I have referred him at least 20 friends who were in accidents. All say the same thing; the best experience they have ever had with an attorney. John is so cool I feel he is the only white African-American I have ever known. He’s also always there to try to help even outside of the call of duty."

- Val A. McGowan

"John, I just can’t express to you how much I appreciate your handling my case and the excellent result you got for me. I really expected nothing and was beyond shocked when you called me. You were just so nice every time I called and took my call immediately. It does sort of make a good story but it took a really long, long time to get there. I wish I could say more but I really don’t have the proper words to thank you.
Have a nice holiday season!"

- Kathy

"John, I just wanted to drop you a note thanking you for your help w/ our accident case. You guys are very professional, thorough and ethical!!! (We were told to watch out for injury attorneys because they can be dishonest!!) You guys are GREAT!! All of your assistance was appreciated! Because of your type of practice (injury) I hope that I won’t need your assistance ever again! But if I do, I will certainly contact you! Take care,"

- A.A., Washington, DC

"Dear John, I wanted to tell you how polite and friendly you always were. The worker’s compensation attorney I have never returns my phone calls and neither does his secretary. I have learned that I have to tell the receptionist that I want a live body on the other end of the line, not a machine. I am spoiled! John the loan man said some really nice things about you. But I was already sure in my heart you were a great attorney and person. Take care,"

- Mary, Washington, DC

"Dear John,
I am in receipt of the check as proceeds of the jury verdict, less the amounts indicated in your letter. Allow me this opportunity to say thank you so very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to represent me in this matter. If and when the need arises, I will call on you in the future with any legal questions. Once again, I thank you. Sincerely,"

- Charwin N., Fairfax County, Virginia
