Outstanding Attorney!

Working with Margaret "Meg" has truly been a wonderful experience. She is very knowledgeable, dedicated and efficient. She is also well-organized and productive. She is a good-natured person who will be a valuable asset to any client, company or law firm.

I very highly recommend Ms. Margaret Johnson for your legal work.

Ms. Johnson has provided various types of legal services to both myself and my wife for over seven years. Ms. Johnson is extremely trustworthy, is always available to discuss any questions or concerns we may have, and if she does not know the answer to our question, she knows where to do to obtain t...he correct answer for us. Ms. Johnson's legal ethics, moral character, and ability to put you at ease throughout the legal process is one that is unmatched. Do not hesitate one second on whether or not to obtain the services of Ms. Johnson - just do it.

Commercial Auto - defense representation

Ms. Johnson has been our lead contact @ the firm assigned to handle our defense litigation stemming from an accident between our tractor-trailer rig, and OV. While inappropriate to go into case specifics at this time, since our e-introduction following the case assignment by our insurance carrier,... every aspect of dealing with Ms. Johnson has been nothing short of exceptional. 1) All calls have been either taken immediately, or returned much more promptly than previously accustomed with other counsel in other cases. 2) My questions and/or 'rants' have been clearly, professionally, and compassionately resolved, leaving me each time remarkably satisfied with her response or remedy. 3) Ms. Johnson's knowledge and background of the industry, process, and strategy has been reassuring, and exceptionally encouraging. Ever since early-on in the litigation process, I have been confident that we have as good a firm defending our interest in this case as is available anywhere, and Ms. Johnson has been a huge factor toward that conviction.

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.
