SIMPLY AWESOME TO US

Eric Johnson was AWESOME in every since of the word. My experience with Mr. Johnson exceeded my expectations. His combative, witty,straight forward way of cross examination, great character questioning and dead on closing arguments ended in a NOT GUILTY verdict after a 4 day trial and just a 2 hr jur...or deliberation. Everyone said he(my son) couldn't beat a Murder trial!!! Trust Eric Johnson from a happy mother who was losing her son for a crime he didn't do!!!

He had to deal with me as a client.

I went into his office demanding that my case be dismissed and I wasn't paying any fines, going to any classes or anything else. It was a possession of marijuana case and a super speeder Eric kept the humor to himself as I insisted that I was going to walk away from this case with paying no other... fee than his retainer.. He accompanied me to court on three different occasions and each time I left with a better deal than previously offered. He is a negotiator in this aspect. In the end, I had to take a risk reduction class and a MADD class, so overall, I couldn't complain. The fine it self came up to $210. Which was very small since the traffic ticket itself was going to be over $700. I was able to get the charges dismissed after paying the fine and taking the required classes on some kind of GA statue. Since then, I have conferred with him about a case where someone hit my vehicle with no proof of insurance and his advice was dead on as to how I should proceed.

Eric Johnson did everything in his power to prove my innocence in my criminal case. His cross examination of my accuser was awesome. The end result NOT GUILTY!!!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I do not know Mr. Johnson, but I was in court with him and observed him argue a motion for a new trial on behalf of a client convicted of murder. He argued vehemently and was a strong advocate for his client. Despite this being an uphill battle (criminal defense always is) he never stopped countering the Prosecution's arguments with strong counter-arguments, demonstrating an impressive ability to think on his feet. I was impressed."
