    After consulting 3 attorneys and comparing the pros and cons. I decided to hire John because of the…read morebackground he has with handling criminal justice. What I considered when I made my decision to hire him was that he has prior experience as a prosecutor, he works part time as a judge, he has over 20 years of experience in criminal justice, and he knows the prosecutors at the Olathe Municipal Court which is where I was cited to court. With all his background he can see the perspective of a prosecutor and a judge in order to attain the best outcome. In my case, I was illegally pulled over in Olathe because an officer driving behind me, ran my tags and they showed the owner with a suspended driver's license. The car is in my dad's name and we look nothing alike, he's 47 years old and I'm 22. There is no question that there was no reason for the cop to pull me over unless he was completely sure that the driver matched the description of the one with the suspended license. After I showed him my DL, registration, and insurance, he changed the topic and allegedly claims he smelled marijuana in the vehicle. Truth is, there was marijuana in my vehicle but it's been hidden for so long that the car couldn't possibly smell like weed. In the moment I just thought to myself that I can't prove what he claims to smell or not and thought that he could just use that as probable cause to search my vehicle anyway. Unfortunately I was not very informed about the dos and don'ts at a traffic stop so I just decided to be honest and gave up the marijuana I had in the vehicle. The reason I know he was lying was because it was less than a gram in a sealed container, which was in a zip lock bag, which was in a shoe, which was under the matt next to the spare tire in my trunk. He must have a great sense of smell if he could detect that all the way from the driver's window when it's been in the trunk for weeks. He was even shocked when I admitted to having some because I fell in his trap. My charges ended up being possession of marijuana and paraphernalia. When I met with John he seemed pretty secure of how he was going to work this case. What complicated my case a bit was the fact that I'm a temporary resident here in the United States and I had to resolve this issue by the time I had to renew my immigration status which was right around the corner. Luckily John was able to work out a deal in which I ended up taking a drug abuse evaluation and attending an eight hour drug and alcohol class. After I completed the class and got my certificate, my case was dismissed. If I would've been convicted, that would've caused a big conflict with my immigration renewal and I was in no disposition to risk that. Overall John handled my case very professional, in a timely manner, and took into consideration my special circumstances I was in, to get the best possible outcome. The only minor complaint I have would just be better communication with the client. Or maybe it was just me being my first time in trouble, but I just wanted to be up to date with each step of the way because I was worried sick. Besides that, very good attorney and I highly recommend him.

    John did fantastic work for me in the state of Kansas, particularly the Leawood court system. After…read morereceiving a DUI charge with a BAC of over 0.15, along with some other minor charges, I was looking at three months of driver's license suspension and one year of ignition interlock. Luckily the witness officer for my hearing with the department of revenue failed to show and the case was dismissed leading to no restriction on my license. Regarding the criminal charges, I received 12 months of diversion. Considering the fact that I had a prior arrest and the severity of my charges(s), this was more than I could hope for and I'm very grateful for John's work. On successful completion of the diversion agreement, I will have no public record. I would highly recommend Mr. John E. Harvell for anyone facing criminal charges in Kansas.
