About Justin
Since forming Kroll & Johnson, P.C., I have made it my mission to protect those who are injured and fight for the justice and compensation they deserve. No case is too large or small. If you’ve been injured through no fault of your own I want to help you.
My unique and diverse history allows me to both better understand my clients’ perspective and zealously advocate on their behalf. I worked as a firefighter and in the construction industry prior to becoming an attorney, so I know what it means to put in a hard day’s work. Because of this I work tirelessly for my clients and leave no stone unturned in my investigation of the facts of each case.
Whether you were injured in an auto collision or as a pedestrian crossing a street, give me a call. There is lots to be done.
Practice areas
- Car accident: 50%
A car crash can turn your life upside down. I have experience battling recalcitrant insurance companies that refuse to fairly compensate victims of auto collisions.
- Personal injury: 20%
As an attorney whose practice is focused on personal injury law, I enjoy protecting my client's rights. If an insurance company is not willing to offer a fair settlement, I will litigate the case without any hesitation.
- Wrongful death: 15%
- Trucking accident: 15%

I worked with Justin at a previous law firm and can say firsthand his knowledge of the auto accident and personal injury process, both in and out of the courtroom, is exceptional. Amplifying Justin's knowledge and trial experience, Justin truly appreciates the personal importance of each case to his clients. When I refer a client, family member, or friend to Justin, I know they will receive diligent and competent legal representation and their needs will be taken care of properly.

Justin originally worked as an associate in a firm I was a partner in. It was very clear from the beginning that Justin possessed a fine legal mind with excellent litigation ability. Judges and arbitrators alike have told me how impressed they are with his acumen and poise. When the time came for me to choose a law partner in my new practice, the choice was obvious. I am very pleased and honored that this lawyer is not only my business partner, but also my friend.
