John Rockwell

When the stakes are high, you want a lawyer who understands the system from the inside out. That is exactly what John Rockwell offers at Eagle Rock Defense Group. With 21 years of experience and a track record of over 55 jury trials, John has an unshakeable foundation in the courtroom. He spent the early years of his career as a state prosecutor in Duval County, rising through the ranks to the Major Crimes division. There, he managed everything from initial crime scene investigations to complex homicide trials, gaining the deep institutional knowledge he now uses to protect individuals and executives facing serious legal jeopardy. John approaches the law with the same focus he once brought to the tennis courts at UNC Asheville—disciplined, strategic, and always prepared for the next move. His peers in Northeast Florida recognize his leadership, electing him Treasurer of the local Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and honoring him with the Jacksonville Bar Association’s Professionalism Award in June 2026. A graduate of the University of Miami School of Law, John combines his sharp legal instincts with a genuine commitment to his community, including his work with the Jacksonville Humane Society. He is a clear-headed advocate who knows how to navigate the most challenging legal landscapes to get results.
