Best Attorney Ever!!! Dont listen the anything negative about this office!

Kelly Johnson is one of the best attorneys I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Lets face it, if you are calling this office for help, it is most likely that you are in financial straits like my wife and I in 2008. Kelly and his staff were professional, courteous and empathetic. And in t...he courtroom they are all business. This was a stressful time for my wife and I and as it is easy to see now, we were not alone. Kelly Johnson's office's were extremely busy but always took the time for me and my family. Ultimately we had a very prosperous bankruptcy! I have referred over 30 people to him and continue to do so year after year. If I have to do business in the state of CA and I need the assistance of an attorney, I call the Law Offices of Kelly Johnson!

A great choice

I had a second generation, 49 years in business catering and event planning service. When the economy tanked my business went south so we decided to close until times got better. I needed a BK Lawyer and the only Lawyer I knew was an awesome one that was a past client of mine that was a defense atto...rney, so a year after his wedding reception I called and told him I needed a great BK lawyer so he gave Kelly Johnson's number I knew I would be in good hands! Boy was I right. His entire staff is awesome, I would call and get info from him right away, the only time I waited a bit to talk to him was if he was in court. He has a great personality, I felt as though we had been lifelong friends, he guided me through everything, I believe he went above and beyond what was required of him. The results turned out as they should have and I am still in need of his services for another matter and have just started up a new situation with him. When I saw the other reviews it made me so angry I had to set the record straight and defend his skills I would choose him over anyone else anyday..
