The Best Advocate in Portland

Sometimes, when life takes you by storm, you need more than just an attorney. You need an advocate. You need a friend. Justin and Reed Johnson were those lawyers, advocates, those friends I needed when I was wrongfully injured. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with Justin and Reed. They took my case, when others wouldn't, because they passionately believed in me even though there wasn't much financial incentive for them to help. You read that right. These lawyers wanted to help me in the name of justice versus financial profit. Amazing. I didn't even know lawyers like this existed. I am absolutely blown away and honored by their help. Justin and Reed, thank you from the bottom of my heart for being my advocate. I will always remember your kindness and generosity. You have my highest respect and will always be the first team I contact when in need...

First time using legal help for an injury after an auto accident. Mr Johnson was understanding and helpful through each step of the legal process. Always explaining what was going on and always very fast to call me back if I had a question. They made sure that all my expenses that incurred from the accident were paid and took that burden off of me.Their staff was always courteous and was just as helpful.

Very Trustworthy. We won!

I was in a bad spot before I met Justin Johnson and he became my attorney. I had been in two car crashes. The first one was not my fault, the second one was. I had a herniation in my neck and I was told I had to have surgery to fix it. Justin stepped in and made the whole process go smooth. He got me a great settlement.

The Beez Kneez!

This lawyer helped me out. I had a complex arm fracture after being in a crash with a drunk driver. Justin met with me and told me he could take care of the insurance companies and he did. I got a nice settlement because of Justin.

Posted by Shane | August 17, 2015

I highly recommend Justin and Kroll & Johnson

My foot was injured in a car crash and it required surgery. To make matters worse, my insurance company refused to pay the medical bills, so I had to hire a personal injury attorney. Justin got the insurance companies to pay all my bills and he got me a nice settlement for my injuries. If you are hurt in a car accident, go and talk with Justin. He will help you out.

The best lawyer in town

I was ejected from a vehicle during a crash caused by a drunk driver. The car rolled over me, and I suffered numerous injuries including a brain injury. Once I was released from the hospital, I sought out an experienced personal injury attorney and found Justin Johnson with Kroll & Johnson. I have nothing but good things to say about him. He got me not one, but two settlement from separate insurance companies. I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks again.

Great resource

We met with Justin to find out options for a personal injury to our daughter. Justin was very upfront with us on our options and advised accordingly. Although we were not able to retain his services, he did advise other options for us and educated us on our situation. We are very grateful for Justin and his team, we have referred them to friends who were satisfied with them too.

Represented me after a traffic accident in order to make sure I was not taken complete advantage of. With their office close to mine it seemed to be a good fit. Justin was always willing to listen and do what he thought would benefit me most.
