Great business attorney!

Both as a new business owner almost 5 years ago, and as one with more experience, Aaron has shown his expertise in business law. Mr. Johnstun helped my business complete an acquisition of another business. He was very eager to help us understand all that would be involved in said acquisition. I wa...nt to be able to focus my time and energy into my business and what we're good at, not in trying to understand legal jargon. We truly appreciate Aaron's efforts in making this deal happen, as well as helping us to create essential documents like terms and conditions and employment contracts. I would definitely recommend him.

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.
