Excellent Attorney

Mrs Johnson represented my son in a case with professional and knowledge of the law. She was kind and gave us choices in allowing us to decide on how we wanted to proceed. We would definitely seek her advice and services in the future if we find ourselves in need of legal advice.

Phenomenal Attorney

At first I though I wouldn't have much trouble with my divorce, and I consulted with Mrs. Johnson to get the process started. However, it quickly turned south and Mrs. Johnson ended up representing me in court over false clams filed by my wife. I have never seen someone so dedicated and passionate in... the court room. Mrs. Johnson really stood out amongst the other lawyers in the room. So much so that I was asked by others who I hired so they could hire her as well! Mrs. Johnson ended up getting the fraudulent protective order made by my wife denied, and I didn't even need to testify. I could not have picked a better Lawyer. Mrs. Johnson is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate about her work, and you will not regret hiring her.

BEWARE UNPROFESSIONAL ATTORNEY

This woman is just a B period. My daughter’s Dad has Eight contempts for making unilateral decisions. I asked what a court is likely to do and she proceeds to tell me it’s my fault and that a judge should shame me in open court.

Some people just don't like to hear the truth. I didn't say it was your fault, I said it was both of your faults and yeah the Judge should shame you both as it is a shame you and the other parent have to have strangers force you to do right by the child. So here is your question and what I actually said. Most will see who the 'b' is. What is a NC Custody Judge likely to do in a contempt case? I have brought 8 contempts against my daughter’s Dad. 6 for making clear cut unilateral educational and extracurricular decisions, and 2 for taking her out of state without providing me with the pertinent info. My concern is that his attorney will file retaliatory contempts for missed phone calls and derogatory comments in Our Family Wizard which he is also guilty of. What is a judge likely to do in this situation? How things turn out will mostly depend on whether you are bumbling around attempting to do this yourself or if you have an attorney and if so, the skill of your attorney. We can't tell you with any significant degree of accuracy what a Judge will do - they have quite a fair bit of discretion. I can tell you normal people don't need strangers to referee the raising of their children so if you are having to go to court, right off the bat you are likely gonna be somewhat suspect in a Judge's mind as at least potentially a bit south of normal. Hopefully what happens is a Judge shames both of you publicly in open court for putting ridiculous pettiness ahead of working together for the benefit of the child and come up with a plan to essentially force both of you to do right. However, if you'd rather prepare for 'retaliatory contempts', then you need to consult with a family law attorney who can review your specific situation in more detail than can be done in a limited forum like this.
