Erlinda O. Johnson

Erlinda is very good at taking care of her clients. She gives clear, concise direction on what she expects from clients, such as information, affidavits or records. She gave us real hope within the first 3 minutes of our first meeting and sustained our belief in her abilities throughout our entire co...urse of business. She is very knowledgeable about how the laws work and how it applies to each case. She was amazingly responsive to phone calls or emails, and was prompt in her return communications. I would highly recommend her to any of my family and friends. Wonderful experience!

I am familiar with Erlinda's legal work since she was first licensed, 21 years ago. She is excellent in whatever role she's in. I've worked cases against her, with her and we've represented co-defendants. She was a hard hitting but fair ADA and AUSA. It was a gift to the criminal defense community... when she began representing Defendants. She's raised the bar in the quality of work we see from defense lawyers. She explores every aspect of an investigation and is creative in finding shortcomings in the prosecutions' cases. She is an incredible writer and a fierce litigator. She will find holes in cases others may see as unwinnable. The results she's obtained for her clients are a testament to her talent and intellect. Erlinda is generous in sharing her knowledge and experience with others. She is a source often turned to for advice and guidance on complex legal issues. She has an impeccable reputation and is a leading, if not the best, federal criminal litigator in the State. She is able to balance this toughness with a compassion and understanding for her clients and their situations.

A few years ago, my Godson was arrested by the DEA while serving as a courtier for a regional methamphetamine distribution ring. His family could not afford an attorney skilled enough to stand a chance against a merciless prosecution that was threatening a sentence upwards of 25 years. Fortunately, m...y wife and I were able to provide financial assistance. My sister-in-law is an attorney herself. As soon as I told her the nature of my Godson's charges, she referred me to Erlinda. Erlinda took the case to trial, and was able to reduce a 25-year sentence to five years - the mandatory minimum, aka the best possible outcome. In a nation saturated with attorneys, Erlinda stands among the best. When she agrees to take on a case, she demonstrates an impassioned emotional attachment to whomever she is fighting for. Highly, highly recommended.

Ms. Johnson successfully represented my criminal case in federal court. She was very professional, knowledgable and determined to provide the very best representation. She has the utmost respect from the Federal Judges, and US Attorneys prosecuting the case. She was always accessible to answer any... questions during the process. Ms. Johnson comes with the highest endorsement. If you are looking for an attorney who has your interest at heart and willing to go the extra mile, I would recommend you contact Ms. Erlinda Johnson.
