Michael Ashford Johnson

I've read all the reviews regarding Mr. Johnson, I STRONGLY DISAGREE AS HIRING HIM. My granddaughter(single mother of two children) made an appointment to meet with Mr. Johnson. I went with her on first meeting. He gave me a convincing impression that he could and would help with child custody issu...es. WRONG. He was hired by my granddaughter. Most of the communication was between his assistant and my granddaughter. He was either on phone or unavailable. He was on case for four months when he petition to dismiss himself(hearing was only 3 weeks away) His reasons: overwhelmed with cases and he was stressing. It took him 4 months to realize the load and stress he had? I would think that an attorney should know if he can or can't take any more cases. POOR JUDGEMENT ON MR. JOHNSON. The money was being paid up through his dismissal. Judge ruled on his favor. Now my granddaughter was without any money to look or hire another attorney. DON'T RECOMMEND HIM!

Mr. Johnson handled my siblings custody battle, that sided against her. He was hardly prepared although he had weeks to be. He always seemed like he had other pressing issues he needed to attend to that didn't pertain to the case at hand. During the hearing and testimonies he often fumbled his argume...nt or case. He stated facts wrong even after conversing with his client. He came off very unprofessional. His Assistant was very good at touching base with my sister, but toward the end it was if my sister had to continuously call Johnsons office for information or concerns. I would NOT recommend Michael Johnson. He was clearly more concerned about receiving his checks then doing the task at hand, which was to advise, advocate, and thrive in this devastating matter on which we had.

Michael did an amazing job handling my difficult divorce! My husband and I had been married many years and had lots of property and debts to divide. We also had three children who were torn between two households. Michael was extremely patient and knowledgeable. He was very quick to respond to m...y many, many calls and emails. I was a wreck! He also recommended an excellent therapist for our children. He did a fantastic job preparing me for court. I would HIGHLY recommend Michael for any divorce or custody matters!
