Bad choice

Hired this attorney and she delayed filing my case by almost 6 months- barely missing the statue limitations. Did not know how to handle the case, continuously got railroaded by the defense attorneys that were more skilled and advanced than her. I had to fire her and hire an experienced attorney and... spend over $20,000 just to fix all the mistakes that she made. One of the worst business decisions I’ve made in my life. Save yourself and don’t use this attorney.

AMAZING ATTORNEY!

Amanda is a managing partner at Johnson & Cruz where they practice and specialize in Personal Injury, Workers' Compensation, Litigation, and Estate Planning. Amanda has personally worked with many clients I have referred over to her firm and they all have outstanding reviews about her. More importan...tly, they have all been very happy with the results of Amanda's services. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Very grateful for Amanda Johnson

My grandmother needed an attorney to update her estate planning documents so we contacted Amanda Johnson for an initial consultation and felt very comfortable with her. Amanda was extremely professional and diligent with her work and completed her work within the month. Now, our family feels at ease ...knowing that everything is in place should something happen to us. I recommend Amanda Johnson for any work with wills and trusts.

Working with Amanda

I travel often for work and needed some advice for my business. I came to Amanda for the initial 15 minute consultation and then hired her to work with me further on a few projects. Amanda is my go to attorney when I have questions about something that requires legal attention for work. Highly recomm...end!

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.
