Found myself in a serious situation. I was in danger of facing serious time in prison. I got in touch with Mr Hawkins, followed his advice and he persuaded the magistrate to give me another chance. Shrewd, efficient and highly knowledgeable. Can't thank him enough.
A top notch representation John Hawkins.
Nuance and collective understanding of the system cogs coupled with cognitive insight into system personal his strongest forte.
John verbal interchanges were wrought with tonal confidence that exuded calm and assurance; a vital component in composure for all, the resultant being case confidence.
A grateful James Lee.
I’d like to give a massive thank you to Chantal for her professionalism getting me into John and John for my representation.
Through the entire process, from admin to court, they’ve been transparent & fought on my behalf in my best interest. I can’t imagine having a better team on my side. It’s clear that they have a wealth of knowledge behind them and I would recommend them to anyone in need of legal advice. Thanks again John and Chantal
Highly recommend John. We hadn’t been involved in the legal system before our association with him, we were extremely grateful for his confident demeanour & legal expertise. John made a difficult part of our life so much easier & for that we are really greatful.
John Hawkins came highly recommended by a police prosecutor and close friend. Our dealings with John and his team were handled with prompt, clear communication. John’s representation in court was strong and professional with a detailed defence. He is a charismatic gentlemen who demands attention. With these qualities combined he achieved a far better outcome than previously expected. We would highly recommend anyone requiring a criminal lawyer to contact JD Hawkins & Associates. Thank you John, it was a pleasure dealing with you, even under such unfavourable circumstances.
Our 16 year old recently got into a bit of trouble with the Police. I didn’t have a clue when to go for help. A friend recommended John to us and he was a God send. From the minute we met John he calmed our nerves. John is kind, professional, knowledgeable and non judgmental. We, as a family, can not thank John enough, John got us through a difficult time and I would highly recommend him to anyone.
John was recommended to me by my friend and I believe that I was lucky to have him as my lawyer. The way he handled my case was excellent and finally he got me out of this trouble. Really thankful and appreciate him and his team for what they did for me.
John Hawkins represented me in court for a intrem restraining order and we had a good outcome. The restraining order was removed. John is a good lawyer , good to deal with and explained things well through out the processes. He appeared in person for the court date even though court was 1200km from his office. He got the job done quickly and at a good cost. I would recommend John to anyone in need of a good lawyer. Thank You John.
John was great. Kept in touch throughout the process and got a good result. Definitely recommend him to anyone going thru the system
With great professionalism, John handled our case with expertise. He is compassionate and sympathetic. We would highly recommend John to anyone who might be in need of his services. He's number one!!!
I highly recommend the professionalism and competence with which John approaches his work. John is a very experienced and highly efficient operator who understands the system and subject matter at hand. John is compassionate and non-judgemental and delivers a high quality service that is budget-friendly. I will recommend the services that John provides to anyone who unfortunately finds themselves in a situation where they may require his assistance - trust this man - he knows what he is doing!
Unethical method and just rude
BE CAREFUL do not take the word of John Hawkins only appeared once in court for couple hours trial was adjourned asked if going to cost more before leaving the courts he assured no further costs were required. Less than a month of adjourned trial dates he threatens to not represent on trial dates unless more money paid. He withdraws from representing two weeks before trial. Unethical conduct.
I am very grateful for the help and knowledge from John Hawkins. Despite such short notice John quick to respond to all my queries and ready to represent me. I will highly recommend John Hawkins. The professionalism and confidence he has the court room is outstanding. I was beyond happy with the outcome and thank you for his hard work. Best lawyer in WA............
Graham and Melissa Munro John was recommended to us by a friend and we in turn highly recommend John and his team to anyone that may need his expertise. He represented our son in what through no fault on Johns, or our part became a long and drawn out process. John with his considerably experience and excellent understanding of the law was able to guide us every step of the way never loosing focus on what needed to be done. He was honest and upfront with the possible outcomes we might achieve but above all he was very approachable responding to all our questions in a manner that left us feeling confident we were in good hands. After 4 very stressful years John achieved for us the best possible outcome we could have hoped for. If my family is ever in need of a lawyer again John is the person we will call.
John gets the job done.
One of best lawyer i ever had & he knows what he is doing.thank you very much sir

I recently had the misfortune of requiring Johns services to defend myself in a Criminal matter. With Johns knowledge of the Law I was immediately reassured that I was in safe hands and that the matter would be dealt with. Johns style and knowledge is old school and you know that you have someone in your corner that will tell you as it is and what needs to be done. I will be forever grateful for Johns guidance in dealing with the matter. A sliver lining in everything. I would not know John if this did not happen and he is a top person to know. Would recommend him to anyone .
