Sandra Elaine Johnston

We were in need of an attorney for a Family Court child custody case. A friend recommended Attorney Sandra Johnston. Her credentials and the comments were excellent, so we contacted her for input and assistance. After speaking with us about our case, she agreed to check further and provide her eva...luation. Sandra is one lawyer you want on your side because she believes in fighting for what is right. She provided us with the unvarnished facts; it would be an uphill battle. Not only is Attorney Johnston the ultimate professional, but in addition she is thorough, honest and has the highest ethical standards. She did take our case and against all odds we prevailed. It wasn’t easy, but she never gave up and she gave us hope. Our whole family owes her a debt of gratitude. Our grandchildren now live in a stable, loving home and are thriving. We highly recommend Attorney Johnston and feel confident in her hands.

Attorney Johnston has represented me in family court for the past seven years. I’ve been told by multiple sources that my case is in the top 2% of difficult cases. Throughout the entire process, Attorney Johnston has continually fought not only for me, but she has fought for what is right, fair and ...just with the ultimate goal being the stability and betterment of my children. Attorney Johnston’s professionalism, exceptional work and moral ethics helped to alleviate much of the angst involved with navigating the constant challenges involved with the family court system, contentious opposing party and overall processes. Attorney Johnston’s 20+ years of experience has proven invaluable in obtaining the desired results throughout a seven-year uphill battle. Attorney Johnston has a military background and can relate to the challenging circumstances that military members and their families face in the family court system. Thanks to Attorney Johnston, I have beaten the odds and obtained full-custody of my children as a deployable, military father. My children are now all thriving in a safe, stable and fruitful environment. Attorney Johnston truly helped to save the lives of these children.

I had began an "amicable" divorce by beginning my paperwork and filing without assistance. This "amicable" divorce quickly turned south. I'm a full time Airline Pilot, and I thought I could do this myself (you all know the stereotypes of pilots...and my ex used these all against me). My attempts ...in to do this without legal counsel, left me in a very bad position. I was kicked out of my house (based on lies), and had the time with my kids reduced to almost nothing. I was at a loss for what to do, and searched AVVO to quickly find an attorney represent me before there was further damage. Sandra had the best rating that I could find on AVVO, and I reached out to her. With 5 days notice, she prepared a good defense for temporary orders, and we were able to restore some time with the kids. Over the course of the next two years, we had a successful trial, and came out with a very fair result. I have a shared 50/50 plan of two very young children (at my request), and with my career and availability, its a HUGE victory! Getting to have a substantial part in my children's life was paramount in the divorce and separation. Sandra has great advise. She is very to the point, very honest. She doesn't waste your time. The best part about Sandra, is that her memory is amazing. This saves TONS of money. I can tell her a story once, and she remembers in detail to be recalled later. This saved hours and days of trial prep. Her trial experience and abilities are off the chart good. There was no comparison to the professionalism of Sandra compared to the counsel of my ex-wife's. She always represented the truth, which made trial successful. If you have an attorney that wants to lie or embellish, it will leave you in some tight spots later during the divorce. Sandra's integrity and advice (which I followed) set me up to be seen in a good light. I am so thankful that I had Sandra on my side. Look no further, she is the BEST!

I want to let everyone know that if you have a hard time trying to find a good lawyer Sandra is the best of the best! She takes all her cases very personally and give it 200%. I was very bless to have her represent me. The state wanted to teach me a lesson and tried to prosecute me, because I was a ...domestic violence victim and did not showed up for court on their behalf. I was very scared, but Sandra explained and took her time and walk me through all the courts process and just made me feel safe again. even though my case was pro bono she made me feel like I was paying millions. Thanks to Sandra my case was dismissed. She has given me the courage to leave my abusive husband. Also her assistant Michelle is very caring, understanding and helpful.

Sandra has been my lawyer since the beginning of my very messy divorce. It's often difficult for a man to end up with custody, and she fought hard for me because she believed my daughter would be better off in my care. In the end, she was able to factually lay out all the reasons why my daughter wo...uld be best fitted to stay in my care, and I've been happily raising her ever since. My daughter is healthy, happy and will always be well taken care of because of Sandra.
