Got my legal troubles dismissed COMPLETELY!!

I needed Adam Johnson to help with some legal issues i had after a wreck i had got into last June, he was gracious enough to take in my case, He looked into it VERY FAST and found a way for me to get my ticket dropped completely, and also did it for a great price, I am very pleased with his service...s and his counter parts at the Johnson law firm are all very respectful.

Criminal defense

I really want to take the time to post my experience with the Johnson Law Firm Attorney Adam Johnson. I have been in Law Enforcement for approximately 20 years, during a very tragic day in my life I was arrested on misdemeanor charges. From my Law Enforcement experience Adam Johnson is one of the bes...t defense Attorney in our region and his Reputation is impeccable. I met with Adam reference my case. During our talk he was straight forward and asked a lot of questions. I knew right away I wanted him to represent me for my criminal charges. Adam accepted my case and from day one he worked very vigorously and talking to the DAs office. The DAs office offered me a rejection of charges with conditions, at which time myself and Adam declined the offer. Adam is very professional and is great at what he does. The DAs office then advised that all my charges would be rejected from prosecution. Always had complete faith in Adam and representing me for my chargers. Hopefully nothing like this ever happens again but if it does Adam will always be my first choice as a criminal defense attorney. So I just want to say thank you to Adam and his firm for helping me through this tragic event. Not only did Adam get my charges rejected he also cleared my name and my reputation so God bless Adam and his firm, and I would refer him to anyone out there needing a criminal defense attorney. Thank you again Adam for everything you’ve done for me. Kenny Raimer

Passionate & Honest

With little time until my court date and no where to turn, a friend of mine told me to go to Adam Johnson at The Johnson Firm. Adam and his staff heard my story and began working on my case immediately. He was crystal clear the entire time, making sure I was knowledgeable about the case, the court, a...nd his steps to help provide me with the best defense. He is fair, honest, and open about the facts of the case making sure I was never left in the dark. When (if) I had any questions or concerns, his team was able to answer immediately or that same day. Adam is foreword thinking and prepared for any and all possible curve balls. Aside from his honesty and passion, he could win a case alone on his confidence! If you're looking around for a great defense attorney, look no more. Adam Johnson will not let you down!

One of the best lawyers and/or people i have had or met

Adam knows his stuff in an out. he fought for me and gave me hope when nobody else could or would. he turned a situation that could have messed up my life into an amazing thing and dealt with things in a very professional manner. This man will fight for you in a way you most likely will not find in a...nother lawyer. i would reccomend him time and time again.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
