Posted by John | March 10, 2015 | Elder Law

Effective Communicator

Ms. Johnson has a passion for her area of expertise. I spent twenty years working and serving senior adults in housing and services. Ms. Johnson assisted me on numerous occasions with professional insight while listening closely to my questions. I also witnessed her work with several adults who we...re making business and personal decisions. I highly recommend her to families dealing with seniors as well as to seniors capable of making their own decisions.

Living Trust

Marcie worked with my wife and I to update our 1990 Living Trust. Marice walked us through the changes in the laws and regulations to bring our trust up to date. We left with a quality product and the knowledge that our needs had been met. As future questions arise, we will not hesitate to contact... Marcie. She was great to work with.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
