I required him to do an IQ test before he represented me and it confirmed what I thought, John Haines is the smartest attorney in Knoxville. Call him. Hire him.

Response from owner

Hi, Jed. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!

John is a pit bull of a lawyer. If you need someone to protect your best interests and your assets call him now! He will advise and advocate for you without sugar coating anything. Follow his instructions and you’ll rest easy knowing he’s got your back. The team as a whole at Haines Law Firm is very knowledgeable, professional and responsive. They work tirelessly to give you the straight answers and reassurance you’ll need to get through even the most contentious legal proceedings.

Response from owner

Hi, Nevada. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

I contacted this firm twice and was told that John will call me back. However, he never called me. Anyone has experience whether John can be easily reached or no during the court case.

Response from owner

Hi Jing, I do see that you called my office twice on back to back days this week - yesterday and today. If you look at my online booking calendar, available to you at the very same place you posted this three-star review of my business without ever having been represented by or speaking with me, you'll find that my first available 15 minute consult window is on January 12, 2026. That scheduling link is here:<br><br>https://thehainesfirm.cliogrow.com/book/ac0354bb8f0dd25f4b5bcf8f056e6fba?day=2025-12-22T05%3A00%3A00.000Z<br><br>It is my practice to return calls to un-scheduled callers as frequently as I am able to find that time, but my availability is highly contingent upon my commitments to my current clients.<br><br>I am sorry I was not able to speak with you within 48 hours of you calling my office, as I was in meetings, court, and mediation solidly for that time period, and I do wish you the best of luck moving forward. I am not sorry for choosing to serve my current clients over you, and am sure the patience and understanding that you've demonstrated by leaving this review will serve you well in future days ahead.<br><br>Finally, and I'm sure you'll find this especially important, I specifically remember you appearing to represent yourself at a public hearing in Knox County Chancery Court in August of this year when I was present on an unrelated matter. It is my recollection that a translator was with you to help you understand the english language. I note this because the review you've left me here - as well as several other negative reviews I see from your post history - appear to have been written in perfect english. So, I would add - definitely not sarcastically - honesty to your apparent character traits.<br><br>For anyone reading this review considering hiring me, please understand, the reason I am so busy and popular is the following: if I can remember a random person who crossed my path four months ago for just a few moments, and will spend time outside working hours to address drivel such as this, imagine what I'll do to your cheating spouse, or similar bad faith actor, if they try me.<br><br>Just give me a chance to call you back. Sometimes, court happens.

Painless process for me getting divorced. After payment and providing signatures. I didn't have to worry about anything. Completely handled case flawlessly

Knoxville's best! John and his team are absolutely amazing! My staff and I have had the pleasure of working with John for many years. John is a straight shooter. He's intelligent, professional, and efficient. John isn't looking to drag out a case; he's looking for a resolution. I would definitely call The Haines Firm if you are considering divorce or child custody attorneys.

Hi, Steven. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

John is a great lawyer. He helped me with custody of my kids, and also gave me great advice to help me be a better mom. He was a straight-shooter, he fought for me, and I never felt judged by him. I am forever grateful for his help.

Hi, Jill. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!

I had an excellent experience working with John and Kyle. From the beginning, they were compassionate, professional, and truly listened to my concerns. Divorce can be overwhelming, but John made the process so much easier by explaining everything clearly and keeping me informed at every step even though I didn't know anything about divorce. They were always responsive, and I felt confident knowing my case was in good hands. Thanks to their guidance, I was able to reach a fair resolution and move forward. I highly recommend John to anyone in need of a divorce attorney who genuinely cares about their clients.

Response from owner

Hi, Anthony. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!

Hiring The Haines Firm was the best decision I made during the most difficult time of my life. John took the time to truly understand the nuances of my situation and fought tirelessly to help me gain custody of my daughter Peach. Mitch was incredibly patient and supportive throughout my divorce, he handled my many phone calls and emails with care and professionalism. The pricing was more than fair considering the time and dedication John put into my case, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. If you're looking for a team that’s professional, compassionate, and willing to fight for you , look no further. The entire team deserves more than five stars. Thank you, Mitch, John, and Kyle!

Response from owner

We are grateful for your trust during such a difficult time. Thank you for recognizing Mitch, and Kyle's dedication.

John and the team that worked with me (Kyle and Mitch) at The Haines Firm did a great job in my divorce case. John is a straight shooter and doesn't sugar coat anything, even if it's hard to hear. I hired him immediately after my consultation because I valued his candor above everything else. Kyle was also a great asset to have on my side, and when things got tough for me in mediation, he hung his suit up and spoke to me like a close friend would. I'll never forget the patience and understanding he had for me that day. The unsung hero in my case was Mitch, who probably got tired of fielding my calls, but always took them cheerfully and professionally. He worked a lot behind the scenes and kept me updated on all the important stuff in a timely manner. Thank you to The Haines Firm for representing me, and I wish you all the best in life.

Response from owner

We are elated to hear Kyle, and Mitch provided excellent representation during your divorce case. Thank you for recognizing their dedication and professionalism.

Here is your answer: Your search is over and you have now found the attorney that you need if you want somebody to fight for you and/or Your children during any family court case. John and helped me tremendously not only while my divorce/custody case was in Tennessee, but even when jurisdiction moved to Texas. He went above and beyond ALWAYS to make sure that everything was in place & in order for court, etc. He is fair, straight to the point and Blunt (He will tell you exactly how it is and what he thinks is best for you and I appreciate that so much of him). Hands-down, the best attorney I've had in my divorce/custody case. if only he practiced law in Texas, I would never have hired another attorney. I give 1 million+ stars!

We hired John for my son and he was very professional and hard working and his honesty was unfounded today. When John took the case as far as he could he recommended another attorney that specializes in the field we needed, another attorney would have taken our money and may have lost our case. Thank you John for what u done for Damien.

Response from owner

Larry, thanks for the kind words and review. I'm so happy to hear the results.
