About Darrin
Biography
Prior to starting his own law firm, Mr. Johnson was a criminal defense and business litigation attorney at a well-respected Tampa Bay area law firm, served nearly six years as an assistant public defender in Florida’s Sixth Judicial Circuit (Pinellas and Pasco counties), worked directly with the office of the president of the Orlando Magic on issues of trademark registration, and served as legislative legal aide to former State Representative Sylvester Turner (now mayor of Houston) for the 77th Legislative Session. While serving the state representative, he worked with legislators to create and pass the Texas Fair Defense Act which required, for the first time, all criminal courts in Texas to adopt formal procedures for providing appointed lawyers to indigent defendants.
