About John
John Ferguson practices law in two states and has maintained a steady presence in both Colorado and Michigan since completing his legal education. He earned his J.D. from The George Washington University Law School in 1996 after receiving a B.A. from Alma College in 1992. Those academic years set the course for a career spent practicing across state lines.
After law school, Ferguson entered private practice and has worked in matters under the laws of both Michigan and Colorado. He is licensed to practice in those jurisdictions and has built a practice that serves individuals and businesses who need counsel in state and local matters. Over time he has taken on roles that include advising clients, handling transactions, and representing parties in court and administrative settings.
Ferguson runs his own firm, John Ferguson PLC, where he serves as the principal attorney. The firm operates with an eye toward practical problem solving. Cases and client matters are handled directly and often involve issues that require familiarity with the procedural rules and statutory frameworks of two different states. That dual-state practice shapes how the firm approaches intake, strategy and client communication.
Collegial collaboration has been a recurring theme in Ferguson’s work. He has coordinated with other lawyers, experts and local officials to resolve disputes and complete complex transactions. He places importance on clear explanations and setting realistic expectations. Clients receive straightforward assessments and step-by-step guidance rather than broad promises about outcomes.
Outside the courtroom, Ferguson draws on his years of experience to streamline case preparation and manage the logistical challenges that come with cross-jurisdictional work. He pays attention to deadlines, filings and the administrative details that can determine whether a matter moves forward smoothly. That attention to process underpins the firm’s daily operations and client service model.
He continues to practice through John Ferguson PLC, handling matters that arise under Colorado and Michigan law. He currently concentrates his practice on matters arising under Colorado and Michigan law.
