Highly Recommended - Exceeded All Expectations

I recently had a positive conclusion to a protracted DUI/DWI related legal challenge. I had several recommendations for attorneys but decided after an initial phone conversation with George that he had the experience and skills I needed. George impressed me with his considerable knowledge, experie...nce and advice whenever I had questions. He was always timely with responses and quite patient while explaining my options and informing me what to expect. My case had some unexpected twists but I NEVER felt that my legal outcome was less important to George than his very reasonable fee. Additionally, George's office manager Julie was able to provide excellent information and service whenever George was in transit or at a court appearance. I unconditionally recommend George Johnson for traffic and DUI/DWI cases. George is serious and very focused. His exceptional knowledge and experience was the reason my legal challenge had a positive outcome.

True Expert in Traffic Law

During a very stressful time in my life I was fortunate to find the right attorney. From the initial phone call, Mr. Johnson set my mind at ease with his expertise and knowledge of traffic law. He spent time with me and went through each step in detail. I appreciate Mr. Johnson's straight forward app...roach. He kept me well informed of my options and of the proceedings. I did call around and found his rates to be fair. Anytime I needed or wanted to access Mr. Johnson he responded promptly. While all of this is important with regards to an attorney, the most impressive aspect was the outcome. It FAR exceeded my expectations and I believe Mr. Johnson's knowledge of the law and persistence with my case is the reason why the outcome was as positive as it was for me.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
