Timothy R. Johnson

I have reviewed this attorneys background, reviews of clients as well as colleagues and I am completely impressed with attorney Johnsons ability. I had a zoom meeting with him and again was highly impressed. He's brilliant, he's willing, competitively aggressive and knowledgeable. I will be hiri...ng him to assist with an ongoing matter. I am ecstatic about him accepting being part of the team. The team of good, the team of Justice and the team of what's right. Thank you Tim!

I highly recommend Timothy Johnson, especially if you are dealing with an education/school matter through the courts. He is very knowledgeable, responsive, and isn't afraid of a challenge. If you want an attorney who will fight for you or your child, this is the one. He was able to jump into my ch...ild's hearing at the disposition point, and completely change the outcome that the court appointed attorney, the Guardian ad litem, and the Commonwealth had all pushed as necessary and inflexible. Misunderstanding the interconnected nature of her conditions with school attendance, they sought punitive consequences for non-deliberate actions that were a result of a medically documented condition impacting my child's attendance. These individuals, who I doubt had anything close to the level of education law knowledge Mr. Johnson has, clearly did not understand the underlying cause of the infraction or its impact on attendance, that it was a medical issue and not deliberate behavior, nor were they willing to even consider it. Even though she had made progress, a level of progress that was commensurate with what her physicians stated in writing was reasonable, they sought to punish her with the threat of juvenile detention in order to bring about compliance with compulsory attendance. However, after retaining Timothy Johnson to replace court appointed counsel, he was able to present the real issues even at this late stage (disposition hearing) and as a result changed the outcome for the better. Remember, the Judge may be the fairest person in the world but if you don't have a good attorney to put that information before the Judge, the Judge is limited to the record before him. We will be forever grateful for Mr. Johnson's quick thinking and immediate actions, because I know that time in juvenile detention would have likely derailed all progress my child had made with medical conditions. Mr. Johnson kept us informed every step of the way. He was thorough in his review of the material and the law. He is absolutely brilliant. It also helps that he was affordably priced and his billing is honorable, as I know he put in far more time on my child's case than he ever billed. At all times, we felt like my child was his first priority. I only wish we had met him in the beginning instead of going through several hearings with a court appointed attorney that did not seem to have any understanding of the complex medical and educational issues involved. The outcome we received in the final order was the very outcome we had sought from the school for three years. We had simply asked that in regard to attendance, to only hold her legally accountable under the compulsory attendance laws to that which her medical professionals agreed was reasonable while still allowing her to keep reaching for an even better goal. Since meeting Mr. Johnson, who gave her (and us) the support we needed, she has excelled beyond our wildest expectations. Mr. Johnson isn't just an attorney, he changes lives for the better and he believes in and will fight for what is right.

I'd had an opportunity for the last two months, from Tim, to seek an justice from a local government authority. I was on a budget, but Tim had gone out of his way to help me without billing me for consultation. It was like a charity work - he told me even if the suit was started then lost, he wouldn'...t bill me anything. He took his time to explain what options and likelihoods of winning I had. We'd met about three times and I was also instructed professionally on what to do for legal document works myself for the case. He always replied to my email within minutes on any occasion out of over fifty emails we exchanged. He made a call for me when a deadline for a document submission to the government came up. He showed, throughout, his strong sense of responsibility for what he said to me in a lawyer-client relationship. Remember, this is a charity work he offered First through my question posting on this AVVO. I feel very satisfied with his work. I ended up not filing suit because the government gave me very limited volume of requested evidence when it could give them all. My odds of winning the suit was too low. But, I definitely recommend Tim to anybody who wants to have a lawyer who's trustworthy and responsible, and who tries to find every aspect of a case to find more winning points. Seho
