"John Casalino is one of the reasons I went to law school--his dedication, wisdom, integrity, and kindness have always been an inspiration. I know many caseworkers at DHS, myself included, that always looked forward to working with John, especially because of his insightful contributions at MDT meetings and his resolute, stalwart involvement in complex cases. I remember a particular Grand Jury when children on one of my cases struggled to testify to the abuse they suffered at the hands of a parent. John was exceedingly gentle and supportive with them, making their experience in court less traumatic."

"There are no words to describe the level of safety and comfort you bring. When you think of a superhero you don't often think of an Attorney. We do. When we were going through a vulnerable time in our lives you provided guidance and transparency. There is a level of softness and safety you bring to make sure those who have experienced trauma, do not continue to feel that terror throughout the judicial process.”

“We met you under the worst circumstances, yet you were the light at the end of a dark tunnel. Your confidence gave us reassurance, and you did what you said you would do. The healing could begin and the girls felt safe.”
