Adam Johnson..By far the most effective attorney in SWLA.

I am EXTREMELY pleased with my experience with Adam Johnson. I found myself facing incredibly distressing, very serious charges. Adam had my name completely cleared. Every last one of my charges..rejected because of him. Seriously, God Bless this man. I’m thrilled to share why I believe Adam a...lone to be the highest-quality, most exceptional attorney in SWLA..There are several key qualities that set him apart. 1. Adam has an extremely powerful, logical, and investigative mind. He has the ability to see directly through smokescreens, the most minor inconsistencies, along with any and all fabrications. It is transparent to Adam. His powers of perception are excellent. He’s as sharp as a tack people..He does not miss a beat. 2. Adam wasted absolutely NO time getting started on my case. He is extremely alert and attentive. The very hour that I received news of my charge, he met with me and my family, and began working on my case. He is prompt in all of his dealings. He remained this way throughout. 3. Adam takes cases on with such a seriousness about him.. He handles tasks diligently, and with a proactive approach. It’s clear that he takes his work 100% personally. Adam is solid. As a client, having that comfort was highly valuable, and reassuring. One can really appreciate when their attorney acts with a swiftness. 4. Adam has backbone like I have never seen. He is a very strong-willed individual. He’s the type of person that is said to be the ‘voice of reason’. Everything that he said would happen, happened. He is experienced, educated, professional, and for lack of a better term, Adam has street smarts. I was sold when I saw that not only was he skilled, but that he was incredibly well-rounded in his skills. 5. Adam has a flawless, impeccable reputation. He is known in SWLA for his strong character, influence, determination, intellectual abilities, and work ethic. He is a respected, highly reputable, gifted, and very credible individual. It is common knowledge. 6. Adam has a tenacious, unshakeable quality about him that earns confidence in his abilities to succeed under even the most challenging circumstances. I knew immediately after our first meeting that I had to have him in my corner. Adam is a fighter. 7. Discovering Adam proved to be the only thing capable of alleviating the immense stress and anxiety that comes with being charged. He is kind, understanding, and is a very empathetic person. I trust that you too will find him easy to confide in. Just listen to everything that he advises you to do. 8. He will certainly go above and beyond to spare his client of any potential grief and heartache that they might face. In my case, he was able to act immediately, and this resulted in Adam saving me from extreme distress and humiliation. Bonus Points. 9. I (along with many other people) believe that Adam was born to be an advocate for those undergoing trying times. He is a natural, and is a major force to be reckoned with. Having Adam Johnson on your side is a true blessing. He holds an important position, and I personally feel that he is ordained for it. It’s clear from my experience, and with the ease that success seems to find him. 10. Adam Johnson is exclusively, the only attorney that I would want for my loved ones. I have full confidence in him. It is my sincere pleasure to share this with others. If you are in need of an attorney, look no further..Adam Johnson is the one that you want. Mr. Adam- From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much..I deeply appreciate you, and all that you have done in my defense. Until the day that I die I will share my positive experience with my family, friends, and all who are in need of a highly effective attorney. I will always keep you in my prayers. Thanks to Adam, I have a new lease on life. Blessings, MD

The ultimate professional

Adam was recommended to me from a friend that knew he would be the best attorney for my family. From the first phone conversation I had with Adam and one of his staff members, I knew I was making the right choice. He is as much professional as he his personable. I have talked to and worked with ma...ny attorney's throughout my career but I knew there was something special about this guy. His passion, ethics, and belief in JUSTICE is very appealing when looking for a great attorney. And believe me is a great attorney. Go to the Johnson Law Firm website and watch their Youtube video. I can tell you from my experience and from the experience from someone else I know that their video is absolutely genuine. I now consider Adam not just my family's attorney if ever needed again but also a friend. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing an attorney or a consultation.

Client for DWI

I recently hired Adam Johnson to represent me in a DWI case, and it was the best decision I could have made. Adam was very professional, determined, and confident. He put his all into my case which resulted in a big win for me! If you are in a bind and need a lawyer that is straight forward and will ...do everything to the best of their abilities, then I highly recommend Adam Johnson! His staff was very accommodating and answered every question I had! It was the best experience i have ever had with a lawyer!
