Timothy Johns is an excellent lawyer!

I got arrested with a misdemeanor with possession of cannabis in the County of Dupage. He had reduced it to 3 months of court supervision, and made it only disorderly conduct on my record which can still be expunged. I am very grateful for his help & he has a great sense of humor. Its very easy to ta...lk to him & he does a great job explaining what I can't understand in the court system. I will go to Mr. Johns for all my future legal advice and I'm very thankful to have found such a great lawyer.

ONE STOP SHOP

Right before I turned 21 I was pulled over in DuPage county for a DUI and then a month later I had no idea my license was suspended I was pulled over in Cook County so I had 2 court cases at the same time in 2 different counties and I had no idea what to do. I called around for lawyers and they all t...old me something different every time. I called Mr. Johns and took care of both cases. He referred a lawyer for me on my DuPage case for DUI and handled my suspended license case in Cook County. I cannot tell you how good Mr. Johns is, he worked with the DuPage attorney who was his friend to drop the DUI case first so that he could then get my suspended license case in Cook County dropped. Mr. Johns saved my license and save me from jail time in Cook County. Mr. Johns is the only lawyer that I go to for anything. If he can’t help you he will give you the right attorney for the case. I refer Mr. Johns to all my friends.

Tim is highly recommended!

Tim was highly recommended by my husband's coworker when he needed a lawyer to represent him in court regarding a violation he received while driving his truck on the job. Since my husband's CDL license and driving record are crucial to his job, we were very concerned about this violation going on h...is record. Because of Tim's advice, expertise, and experience, my husband's case was dropped in court, which was the best possible outcome! Throughout the entire process, Tim proved to be knowledgeable, professional, and available. He definitely lived up to and exceeded our expectations and we in turn, would highly recommend him to others in need of an outstanding lawyer.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Tim Johns is one of the finest attorneys I have ever met. Tim is extremely intelligent and street wise. When you walk into a Courthouse with Tim, it is like walking the Red Carpet at the Academy Awards- the guy knows EVERYBODY! He seems to be friends with every Lawyer, Sheriff, Judge, Clerk, Court Reporter, Police Officer and even the guy who cleans the restrooms. His charisma is legendary and for a client, this is a huge advantage when he is in court representing you! I would highly recommend Tim. Very few people have got the kind of easy going manner that just wins over everyone- like he does. Any person looking to hire "THE GUY" in Cook County, would make a great choice choosing Tim. This is the lawyer for you!"
