Wm. John Camp

I cannot recommend John Camp highly enough. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, thorough, and trustworthy, but what truly sets him apart is his kindness, compassion, and genuine commitment to his clients. Military divorce is incredibly complex, especially when retirement benefits, survivor benefits, and long-term TRICARE eligibility are at stake. When it became clear that my original attorney was in over his head with military divorce, John stepped in to help. Working under an extremely tight, back-against-the-wall timeline, he worked tirelessly to refine the settlement agreement and Military Retirement Division Order (MRDO), ensuring critical military benefits were properly addressed. His lightning-fast responses to questions and developments, along with his thoughtful guidance, were instrumental in keeping negotiations on track. His expertise was invaluable, and I shudder to think what my outcome might have been without him. John also had a remarkable ability to make complicated processes feel manageable. He provided clear, step-by-step instructions for navigating the complex RBCO asset transfers, anticipating details and questions I wouldn’t have known to consider. He thought of everything and made an otherwise daunting process feel far less overwhelming. What made John truly exceptional, though, was his humanity. As the emotional toll of divorce wore on me, he took the time to send thoughtful, encouraging emails that helped me find the strength to keep going. He generously shared his time, expertise, and reassurance without ever charging me for those emails. He genuinely cared. John didn’t just provide excellent legal counsel; he made me feel that someone knowledgeable, trustworthy, and compassionate was firmly in my corner. My only regret is that I didn’t find him when I first began searching for an attorney. He made a profound difference in my case and helped protect my future in ways I will always be grateful for. If you need an attorney who truly understands military divorce and will go above and beyond to protect your interests, I wholeheartedly recommend John Camp. I feel incredibly fortunate and blessed to have had him on my team. He is not only an outstanding attorney but also a genuinely good man.

After retiring from a 25-year federal law enforcement career, I discovered a serious issue with a divorce order that incorrectly awarded my ex-spouse a portion of my pension beyond what should have applied. John quickly assessed the situation, developed a strategy, and resolved the matter in less than two months. His knowledge of federal retirement and pension law is exceptional, and his professionalism and responsiveness were outstanding throughout the process. Additionally, John had to work with another attorney in my home state due to new filings that had to be submitted to the local courts. John immediately reached out to my local attorney and had the paperwork prepared for him to submit within a matter of days! I only wish I had found him 16 years ago. I highly recommend John to anyone dealing with federal retirement or pension issues.

--DO NO RECOMMEND-- I do not recommend this provider. My experience with him was extremely disrespectful and unprofessional. When I requested a simple phone call at his earliest convenience, he accused me of making demands and began gaslighting me. He repeatedly gave me a hard time because it took me several months to gather the funds to hire him. I informed him that I did not have access to a computer, and he responded that it “wasn’t his problem,” along with other inappropriate comments and accusations sent through email. His lack of basic courtesy, empathy, and professionalism was alarming. The five‑star reviews do not reflect the treatment I received. He spoke to me as if I was beneath him simply because I wasn’t able to hire him immediately on his timeline. I do not recommend. ---Update to his response to this review: Mr. Camp’s reply to my review is not accurate, so I want to clarify the facts. He did accept my check and agreed to work with me. However, he had not cashed the check yet, nor had he scheduled any appointment for me to come in and sign documents. That is exactly why I politely requested a phone call, simply to understand the next steps and his availability. His email to me, which I still have and am willing to share publicly, was extremely demeaning, sarcastic, and full of assumptions. I had worked very hard to gather the funds to hire him despite financial challenges, and instead of showing even basic human decency, i was greeted with judgements and spoke to me in an EXTREMELY condescending manner. After receiving his email, I made it clear to myself that he was not someone I could trust or feel respected by, whether as a client or, as he now tries to frame it, a “potential client.” He requested my money, I worked hard to gather those funds, and in return he spoke to me with complete and utter disrespect. Because of that, I requested that he return my check promptly, and he did. He then followed up with a mockingly “classy” remark: “Best wishes on finding someone to assist you.” Lol!! I've got the docs for proof if we need to get technical here. Once again, a typical lawyer and will twist the story to suit his fancy narrative. --DO NO RECOMMEND--

I was extremely pleased with the services provided by John Camp. He was very professional, knowledgeable in the law and always available to answer any questions I had. Thanks to his hard work and dedication, I had a wonderful outcome. He also had to work with another lawyer from another County and consistently kept us updated throughout the process. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to have him as my attorney. I highly recommend John Camp to anyone in need of legal representation.
