This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Personal injury

When my husband was seriously injured on private property, we thought that the owner’s insurance company would work with us to fairly handle the injuries. We were wrong and quickly realized that we would need to hire an attorney to help. We hired Mark Johnson and Michael Sprangers to represent us. Fr...om the day we hired them, a huge burden was lifted from our shoulders. They guided us through the entire process, so we could focus on getting better and our lives (and not a lawsuit). We can’t thank them enough.

Highly Recommended. Thank you Mark. Great Job

Mark represented me in a legal malpractice lawsuit. The attorney my husband and I had hired to help us with our wills and estate planning had, unbeknownst to us prior to my husband’s passing, created a real disaster. This resulted in a lawsuit between family members and was the absolute worst-case sc...enario I or anyone else wanted to go through, especially while dealing with my husband’s passing. I hired Mark to pursue a legal malpractice lawsuit against my previous estate attorney. Mark was so great. From the beginning he made the process understandable, and I always felt I was in great hands. Mark was always prepared, professional, and I cannot thank him enough for handling my case. I highly recommend him.

A Million thanks

Mark Johnson and Michael represented me in a personal injury case. I am a journeyman electrician, and I was seriously injured while working. I had no prior experience with lawsuits, and Mark and Michael were great. They guided me through the entire process, and my family and I are so grateful for th...eir hard work. We are so thankful they were able to get us a good outcome. I would recommend them to anyone who wants the best. Nobody wants to be in a position to need the help of an attorney, but if you or a loved one has been injured, you should definitely give Mark and Michael a call.

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.
