Excellence

Lynn is a power-house! She helped walk me through filing for divorce and equipped me with so much needed information. She’s endlessly knowledgeable, sharp witted, savvy with the right mixture of compassion and understanding. I highly recommend her.

Wonderful Experience!

Lynn is an excellent attorney. Not only does she have 30+ years experience in family law, she is also well known and respected in Pierce County. From the first time I consulted with her she presented herself as both very knowledgeable and approachable. I never had any doubt that she was going to do t...he very best she could for me, to get me the best possible outcome for my situation. I also always knew that if I contacted her or her office for any reason that I would hear back within 24-48 hours responding to my question or concern. I had a collaborative divorce, and while I was hesitant about that at first in the long run it was the best possible scenario, and Lynn did a great job of still advocating for me and fighting for me while helping us to avoid having to have any litigation. If there was something I did not understand she made sure that she explained it to me so I never felt like I was in the dark about anything going on. She takes very seriously her role as a counselor as well, and she genuinely cares for her clients and all those who come into contact with her. I have in fact recommended her to two friends and could highly recommend her to anyone seeking an experienced family law attorney. Working with Lynn through your process you will be able to trust that she only has your best interest in mind, and will do everything she possibly can to help you.

Lynn was a lifesaver!

Lynn did a great job for us!!! She kept us out of a really bad situation, and was able to solve our challenge without going to court. I would highly recommend her without hesitation for anyone looking for family law, custody issues. She knows her stuff, she's well-connected to the legal system, and ...she took really good care of us!!

Really like Ms.Johnson and her legal assistant Dara. Ms.Johnson was very knowledgeable and helped the other party and I come to an amicable agreement during our mediation. I would definitely refer her to anyone that would like to do mediation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
