Where were the Crowley cases?

The cases were out of Grant, Kittitas, Island, Pierce and King counties, and federal court in Idaho. In one case, a man under investigation for theft of computer equipment hired Crowley and said he wanted to resolve it before any arrest because he already had enlisted in the National Guard.

Why did Crowley commit professional error?

Earlier this month, the state Court of Appeals in Spokane reversed Houfmuse’s conviction and ordered a new trial, saying Crowley “committed professional error” for failing to show jurors that his client was protecting himself out of “necessity.”

Who did Crowley represent in the Houfmuse shooting?

Crowley represented Tyree Q. Houfmuse in the 2015 shooting outside a Kennewick bar that left the ex-boyfriend of Hourmuse’s girlfriend paralyzed. He also represented in 2014 Kenneth Baird, one of four Hanford workers accused of timecard fraud. Baird was acquitted. However, one of his clients, John C.I. Young, lost his appeal in the July 4, 2013 fatal Horn Rapids area shooting of Joshua Snapp. Young later claimed Crowley was ineffective as his attorney. He was involved in two other prominent area cases as well.

Can Crowley practice in any jurisdiction?

Since it is a permanent resignation, Crowley no longer can practice in any jurisdiction where he was license d, including both state and federal courts. He also is subject to all restrictions that apply to a disbarred lawyer.

Did Crowley respond to follow up calls?

Crowley did not respond to most follow-up calls and texts from the client and repeatedly delayed the detective with lies, the complaint shows.

Did Crowley pocket money?

The complaint also shows that Crowley pocketed some of the money he was paid, instead of putting it into a separate trust account as is required of lawyers.

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

Bad lawyer

Bad lawyerhe's done the same to our family as he's done to many others pressured for the money got the money never showed up for court bad reputation and never had time to sit down to talk about the case only showed up to court once

B. Anderson

Unbelievable the damage Crowley has done for my case in Kittitas County Superior Court Court. We should have stopped him at day one! He pressured my family and I for quick credit card payment near $10k. Would not provide fee agreement and finally sent a text stating the funds would represent defendant (me) “through end of trial”.

Scam ass "lawyer"

I hired John to represent my fiancé based on a recommendation from a friend. HUGE MISTAKE. This man has been impossible to get in touch with from day 1. Then after a status hearing the public defender set, he tried to act right for a second. Then pawned us off to a public defender and now won't answer my calls. He's a scam artist.

Do Note Hire John Crowley

I hired him for a criminal matter and he did nothing for over six months. After the checks cleared John stopped communicating with me. He was impossible to get a hold of, and would not return my money.

Why treat people who need you like this if you can easily say no!

I've been trying to reach "my lawyer" for weeks now. I've texted, called, and left him messages from numerous numbers including my fiancés. I've spoken with the paralegal Jason for weeks now and left messages and spoke with him. It was confirmed that he wasn't on vacation.

Unprofessional

Mr. Crowley was hired in Feb 2016 for my husbands case. My husband was out in jail Jan 21, 2016. He tod me since the beginning it was a fairly easy case since there was almost no evidence against my husband. He was charging $8500 total with $5000 down and that my husband would be out very soon. His visit to my husband was not done for months.

PLEASE!! Don't Waiste your time and money like we did

My fiance and I hired Crowley, paid him in full $50,000 and he did nothing but come to court. He didn't ask the witnesses that testified anything... He never filed any of his motions... Just got paid now he has to try for an appeal.
