Abraham F. Johns Jr.'s Lawyer Endorsements
"I have known Mr. Johns for years. We have both been to the same elder law conferences. I have had court cases with him. I know him to be amongst the most knowledgeable attorneys in the field of elder law. He is someone I would personally call if I had a legal question that I did not know the answer to in the field of guardianship law."
""Frank," as I know him, is the go-to guy for elder law -- a real guru. He is both a passionate and caring advocate for his clients and an asset to our local community and the legal community at large. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. A. Frank Johns is a national leader in the field of elder law, special needs and estate planning. I have personally worked with Frank on various national organizations including the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys and the Academy of Special Needs Planners. He is the recipient of many awards including the Theresa Award for his outstanding community service helping people with disabilities. Through the years, I have had several client matters with Frank and he has always been attentive, professional and caring. Frank is also nationally recognized for his expertise in Guardianship matters. I highly recommend Frank Johns to anyone who is in need of elder law, special needs and estate planning in North Carolina."
"I have known Frank Johns for over 25 years both as a leader in the fields of Elder Law, Special Needs Planning and Estate Planning and as a compassionate and effective advocate for his clients. His experience in these fields is invaluable and second to none in the Greensboro area. In addition the legal team at Booth Harrington & Johns is equally caring and client friendly. I strongly recommend Frank and the law offices of Booth Harrington & Johns if you are looking for the best in your area."
"I have known Frank for almost two decades through the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, where he has been a leader and an inspiration to his colleagues throughout the nation."
