    I recently concluded a 3+ year piece of multi-district litigation in which John Baker represented a party and on which Mr. Baker and I worked closely. He is an excellent and highly ethical commercial litigator.

    John is a skilled and capable lawyer. He has a quirky sensability that often allows him to look at legal problems from angles that less interesting lawyers miss. In my experience, he is dedicated to his clients and diligent in his representation.
