Attorney Saved My Life.....

I am extremely fortunate to have had Mr. Johnson as my attorney. As a young single mom, I was arrested for a DUI at 21. Coming from an abusive relationship, parenting 2 children on my own, almost ending up homeless, and developing a mild drinking problem - Mr. Johnson was there for me during the wors...t time in my life. No one ever prepares you for depression, despare, loss, heart ache, abuse, and addiction. Never thinking my life would have ended up as poorly as it did. I was litterally hit rock bottom and my midlife crisis by the time I was 21. I'll never forget the night I sat in my jail cell thinking "how did I let it all get so bad"...... By 21, I was in a spiral, falling faster than anyone could see, though embarrassed and broken, Mr. Johnson was there to help guide me through. Words can never truly express just how appreciative I am for this man and all that he did, but to just offer some insight, maybe this will help: Since my DUI, I've now earned my Master's Degree, Obtained (2) Bachelor's Degree, Completed (3) Associate Programs, have gone back to help support the youth in my community by establishing community based non-profit organizations, have better served my children as a parent, stopped drinking (over 10 yrs sober), became married to someone who truly cares for me, and now serve the youth of our society as a Special Education Teacher for the incarcerated youth. I could have never achieved any of this without Mr. Johnson's help throughout my DUI. To Mr. Johnson: Thank you for saving my life I am forever grateful to have gotten a chance to live once again. Quote: "My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style." Maya Angelou To whoever reads this review, I hope this somehow in someway helps you - - Adiona -

Great lawyer-found not guilty by jury

I am a former police officer and was charged with impersonating an officer. I was facing a year in jail if found guilty. Mr. Johnson took my case when others wouldn't. He told me from the beginning that he believed in me and that if I was telling the truth I would be okay. He was right. It was s...uch a sweet feeling when I heard "not guilty." This attorney is awesome.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I knew Mr. Johnson when he was a public defender in Mendocino County in 2014. We saw each other in court daily. Mr. Johnson is not your average public defender. He's an ex-cop with an enormous amount of experience. He knows how an investigation is supposed to look, and when it doesn't, he uses it to his client's fullest advantage. If Mr. Johnson is available for hire, hire him. If he is your appointed attorney, you're in good shape."

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.
