First off I did not win my trial, after seeing the evidence mounted against me I am surprised John stuck it out with me. I am and will be forever grateful he did. I am, or was a first responder for 29 years and was already into my second career. John was able to negotiate a deal so I could keep that job. Now let's talk about John "tha man", he truly cares about his clients more than any, and I mean any attorney I have ever seen or heard of. At the end of it all I feel he was more upset about the outcome than I was. He made me feel calm throughout the entire ordeal and to say I was stressed is an understatement. I am not sure either one of us had any idea what an 8 ball we were behind going in. Galveston County justice system is the most corrupt system I have ever seen, and I will most certainly appeal the outcome. I will always appreciate the amount of the work he put in for myself and my case!

I am so pleased to leave this 5-star review for John M. Cook, Attorney at Law! I recently had an Intoxication Assault – Serious Bodily Injury (a felony) charge in Rockwall County. Mr. Cook expertly handled the ALR hearing and was able to use it to gather crucial evidence. He held my hand every step of the way and was so supportive of both me and my family. I’m pleased to report that Mr. Cook was able to get the Rockwall DA to dismiss the case altogether! I am so relieved and happy to be able to move on with my life without having this hanging over my head. If you want the best Texas DWI attorney, I highly recommend John M. Cook!

John M. Cook was referred to me by someone I truly trust and admire. Her words exactly were, “ I can recommend a good attorney or I can recommend the best attorney.” Obviously I went for the best and John did not disappoint. I can see why he was voted “Best Criminal Defense Attorney in DFW. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best possible person to stand in the corner and fight with them.

Mr. Cook is truly exceptional. As our defense attorney, he delivered outstanding results and was always quick to respond to our needs. He went above and beyond to ensure we felt supported and informed throughout the process. His dedication, professionalism, and sharp legal insight made a real difference. On top of that, he’s just an all-around great guy—friendly, polite, and refreshingly to the point.
And let’s be honest—any guy who eats sardines straight from the can on the go has to be down-home. That kind of grit and humility shows in the way he treats people and fights for them. We couldn’t have asked for better representation.

John was exceptional through and through. Diligent, thorough, and punctual, I never had any doubt I was in the right hands. He fought hard for me and in the end was able to prove my innocence. I can’t recommend him enough.
