John is a Marine, having spent three years as a JAG Officer in the Marine Corps, trying courts-martial and advising Marine Commands in the U.S. and the Republic of Vietnam, where he served in Danang during the TET Offensive. On his release from active duty, he founded the law firm which has grown to become Post Polak Goodsell & Strauchler. He was the Managing Partner until 2008, when he resigned in order to devote his full attention to the firm’s clients.
Combining the broad perspective required to understand both the apparent and subtle ramifications of decisions concerning the businesses of our clients, with the breadth of experience necessary to advise on the most sophisticated issues and applications of law.
Post Polak attorneys have collectively been doing just that for decades, and a significant portion of that role has been devoted to handling corporate and commercial disputes in both federal and state courts, as well as before administrative bodies.
Our attorneys have represented the largest city in the state, suburban boroughs and even municipalities with special charters.
