John Johnson demonstrated the breadth of his legal expertise and knowledge when I hired him to represent me in a complex legal case. He explained the legal process in a manner easily understood by a layperson and adequately prepared me for my court meetings. He had always my family best interest i...n mind. He is a person of good moral character and I believe his integrity is impeccable. For potential clients seeking legal representation, I highly recommend Mr. John Johnson.

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.
