Ben has engaged with our companies for the past 3 years and is always quick to respond, knowledgable and resourceful to offer solutions and strategies best suited to our immediate and long term objectives. He is a true professional and takes his responsibilities and relationships seriously.
Professional, Courteous service with my civil case and business matters. I have used this firm in past to establish construction business and address non payment issues as well.
Our HOA has worked with Ben over the last year with interpretation of documents and create/edit/update policy. He is very timely in his responses and work and has remained very professional at all times.
Been handled a contract matter for me. He counseled me against hasty actions and made all the right decisions in dealing with the opposing party. His research of the issues was outstanding which led to a quick resolution of the matter. He is an excellent advocate and a wise counselor which make him an outstanding lawyer.
Ben is an excellent lawyer, very professional, an innovative thinker and problem solver. He thinks outside the box and gave my case the very best representation with a very positive result.
I retained Ben to work on a difficult property matter involving easements, property rights and negotiations. He handled everything superbly and communicated well with me, keeping me informed every step of the way. He is thorough, creative and very smart. No one could have done a better job.
My lawyer defended me against a very unstable former employee that was sueing me for $600,000. He tried for over a year to settle the case. As a last resort rather than go to court, he wrote a summery judgement. After the judge reviewed the summery, he threw the case out of court. It was a clear win by our side.
Highly recommended. Ben is knowledgeable, thorough, effective, and great to work with.
I had the distinct privilege of working alongside Ben Johnston for nearly four years. He exudes professionalism, diligence and confidence. You will not find a more devoted advocate. He treats every matter seriously and respectfully. He approaches problems creatively. He packs real intellectual prowess.
