Daniele C. Johnson

I came to see Daniele because she was very highly recommended to me by a professional acquaintance. She did not disappoint! Her reputation as someone who gets things done, especially in dealing with difficult people, is what led me to what would become a very successful partnership through a divorce ...that can be briefly described as troublesome. She patiently explained all matters to me throughout the legal process, and tenaciously advocated for me every step of the way. Her excellent communication skills and mediation with the opposing legal team greatly impressed me, and made this transition so much easier than I had expected. I'm convinced that Daniele is the driving force behind the positive outcomes in my case. Daniele gave me a fair rate and made every accomodation for me, which I very much appreciated since I am only working part time. I never felt like I was charged nickel-and-dime for every bit of correspondence and the retaining fee was reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Daniele to any good friend who is in need of legal service. I cannot emphasize just how reassuring it was to have someone like her on my side, who was able to alleviate the stress and anxiety that accompanies a divorce.

Daniele handled my adoption case with my niece. I've had her since she was 3 months old, and she turns two in a few months. Daniele made sure that everything was completed correctly and worked meticulously to get the case handled as quickly as possible. On the day of the final adoption hearing, the a...lleged father finally decided to show up. Daniele argued that he had never legitimated himself or responded to any of the other hearing matters despite receiving proper notice. She was calm but stern. The Judge ruled in our favor, and my niece is forever legally my daughter.

Daniele helped me with finalizing a modification of my parenting agreement. She listened and quickly assessed the situation, and recommended a strategy to reach a favorable resolution with my ex. Daniele was very knowledgeable with not only the legal terms of my case, but also the court system and ...judges which would be involved. She was very efficient, and was able to help get the resolution and modification I needed quickly.

I sought out Daniele Johnson after reading the reviews on this site. It was my first time having to seek legal services, as I was going through a divorce and a child custody battle. Daniele is very knowledgeable and is really straight forward as it relates to the do ' s and don't of the case. Her... #1 priority is doing what's best for the child and ensured that I maintained this perspective through out the case. Daniele is also a beast in the courtroom! Her line of questioning and the way she positions her arguments are professional and impactful. A long story short, I not only won my case but received full custody of my child. I am extremely grateful for the way Daniele fought for my case and took the time to understand my concerns. I would highly recommend Daniele Johnson to anyone going through a divorce or child custody battle!

What I would like to say first is I'm writing this before I know the outcome of our Trial that was 3 days ago. I want to do this to better show my sincerity, honesty, and thought behind this review that Mrs. Johnson deserves. There is not enough space here to talk about our situation so I will shorte...n this to hope you can visualize what she had to do for us. We live in MI and have custody of my stepson and have been pending trial for almost a year 1/2 through Fulton county. We had a lawyer abandon this case and not show up for hearings in which caused absolute madness! It can't be described in words what this caused. What happened is after a year 1/2 of preparing for trial stacks of evidence ect. None of this can now be used due to previous attorney not showing to hearing and submitting required forms and things. Needless to say 1 day before pre trial I call Mrs. Johnson in a extreme panic explaining what has happened and she just listened and was calm and told me that she will go to pre trial Monday and Fix it! I said how? The attorney didn't show up last hearing and we can't do this and that. She just said I will take care of it. That she did. Being in MI no chance to plan we did not even need to attend the pre trial. What we did find out is it was impossible to fix the not using documents in Trial due to previous Attorney negligence. Nothing could be done to change this it was the law. A couple more bumps in the road, they schedule a trial during our vacation 1 month later. Somehow Mrs. Johnson was able to get the other attorney to agree to change the date???? Preparing was amazing never missed a step! Not a question! I was so impressed of the way that Mrs. Johnson works. I didn't understand going through the process until I recieved a list from her of questions and she was questioning me like I was on the stand. Mrs. Johnson has a strategy and style that is just thorough and professional and makes you feel so confident and comfortable. Trial day for me I was great! For Mrs. Johnson I didn't forget the fact that she was not able to use or produce any documents in court that day. However trial day showed me my instincts were correct when I had to make a choice of which attorney to hire and take another chance on. The way she handled every person with respect and the way that evidence was cleverly still used to be seen throughout trial not submitted but seen, and how every objection was re worded so quickly and the same answer was still achieved so quickly without a second thought or frustration. That was truly amazing to me. Most important to me was before anyone of us went on stand she said I have done this for 17 years and this Judge has been on the stand for many years, whatever you do you tell the truth. If you don't I will know and so will the Judge. I respect Mrs. Johnson so much for that. If you have a family custody case and you are looking for a attorney please trust me when I say Mrs. Johnson was worth every penny I have. I will update with the outcome of Trial when we find out. Thank you Mrs. Johnson for cleaning up over a years mess in just a couple weeks!
