Saddie Tetney Johns

If you’re lucky enough to have Sadie Johns represent you, hold on tight — she is a rare gem in the family law world. I only wish I had found her 53 months ago. After years of litigation, countless disappointments, and thousands wasted on attorneys who disappeared, ignored urgent issues, or made th...ings worse — Sadie Johns stepped in and changed everything. From the very beginning, Sadie returned calls and emails immediately, even after hours. She never rushed me. She never left me confused. She wouldn’t hang up until she knew I felt heard and fully understood the legal steps ahead. That level of care, empathy, and clarity is something I had never experienced from any other attorney — and it meant the world to me. She helped me: File a clear, persuasive narrative judgment Protect my Family Code § 271 and § 2030 attorney fee claims Secure vital life insurance protections my previous lawyers failed to address Feel empowered, confident, and back in control of my case Sadie went above and beyond, not just once, but again and again — and she did it without ego, without pressure, and with a level of strategic insight that was always grounded in compassion. She is a true advocate not only for her client, but for the children involved, and her commitment to justice and clarity shows in every single interaction. If you’re in a family law battle, run — don’t walk — to Sadie Johns. She is the attorney you hope exists but rarely find. Smart, grounded, ethical, responsive, and fierce when it counts — Sadie Johns is the advocate you want at your side.

I highly and strongly recommend Ms. Johns to handle legal cases based on my experience of her super professionalism and unbelievable personal touch in handling my brother's divorce case. She always sat on client's spot and understood the emotional hardship of going through divorce process. She would ...leave no mosses unturned to get to the fact and build a fair case. Who needs a giant law firm that charge a huge overhead? Ms. Johns and her assistance are always very responsive to address our questions. Without her help, I could not start to imagine how my brother's case would head to, probably, still miserable and unhealthy for the rest of his life. I truly believed that Ms. Johns is an angel sent to answer my call for help especially when my brother needed help the most.

Come on, let's face it. Attorney's are termed Sharks right? Well, Saddie is NOT a shark. She's got the heart of a Whale and the knowledge of an Elephant. Granted, she is a bit pricey but considering Beverly Hills, CA...it's worth it. Trust me. I will let you know right now, she is not about "right..." or "wrong". She is on the side of the children and what is best for the children. However, as she get's to know you and the opposing counsel and the "Jerk Parent" (read the book...very cool by the way!) she will see all the flaws in the other "jerk" and you will be less...of a jerk to her. Let's face it, they are taught to see the negative until proven innocent and I don't blame her. My experience with Saddie, wow...she's one busy attorney and that's good! Her assistant is not only knowledgeable but also, very calming when she calls you, even if it is for money! Hahahaha...So, do I recommend her? Yes. Do I recommend her to go for the jugular...I am sure she can pounce like a puma but you better have ammo! I've seen Saddie in action in court and the sweet lady who could pass for a runway model, is so sweet tempered. Then you see her in court and you are stunned. In my case, although I was saddened to allow more visitations with my ex, I knew what she told me was fact. Nowadays, California is way too lenient when they shouldn't be and vice versa. So, even though she explained things to me, so far, everything she has said has become truth. Do I trust her...absolutely. Do I recommend her...Heck yah! Has she become a friend, attorney, almost family member? Yes, she is known as "Aunt Saddie" as my daughter calls her. Divorce, my dear friends, is not cheap and a lot of times, it is not just "5 months" but if you leave it to Saddie, she will get it done eventually but know that, it does not happen overnight. Especially if you have a "Co-Jerk Parent" in your life. And trust me, Saddie knows and has seen them all. So, as I still seek my divorce and child custody agreement....long process...I know I am in excellent hands. Mahalo....good luck, be calm, be patient....and be blessed. SK
