John graduated from the University of Massachusetts, Boston, in 1984 magna cum laude and Suffolk University Law School in 1987 where he was the Executive Editor of the Law Review. John then practiced at a premier personal injury firm in Boston before returning to Maine in 1989 as a senior associate in a prominent trial practice firm and then opening his own practice. John is a graduate of Gerry Spence’s Trial Lawyer’s College and a member of the Million Dollar Advocate’s Forum.

For over twenty years John served on the Board of the Maine Trial Lawyers Association and is the past President of the organization. John presented local and national seminars, taught Trial Practice at the University of Maine Law School and coordinated and taught at The Peoples Law School with a mission to teach substantive law to non-attorneys.
