Kim Maree Johannessen

Kim Johannessen was referred to me by a friend who happens to be a very successful attorney himself. A request was posted on Listserve, a Legal Referral directory used by attorneys to post referrals and recommendations, and Johannessen & Associates came up repeatedly. I remember one attorney resp...onding "This is the one". After speaking with several other attorneys, I knew Kim was the best choice. Not only was Johannessen & Associates recommended by other attorneys, but also by environmental cleanup companies I had contacted. Working with Kim was the best decision I could have made. I was in a very complex situation with a leaking residential oil tank that involved many parties with no clear path. Kim's extensive legal experience on environmental matters, combined with her keen understanding of the issues and the hard work put in by Kim and her associates, all were key to our being able to work towards a resolution, despite a seemingly hopeless beginning. If you have an oil tank or other environmental issues, put Johannessen & Associates on your speed dial. The first one to hire her firm will count their blessings.

Kim represented my wife and I in a negotiation with our next door neighbor's insurer over expenses for remediating leakage from the neighbor's tank that had spread well onto our property and under our home. There were remediation expenses, and costs of consulting engineers and Kim's fees. Kim resol...ved the entire matter without litigation, with full recovery by us of all out of pocket expenses and compensation for disruption of our lives during the remediation process. She did so with a high level of expertise of the law and the utmost professionalism. I would (and have) recommended Kim and her firm to any party having environmental issues to resolve. I am myself a lawyer.
