Reviews
Working with Christopher was a great experience. He and his team kept me well informed of progress and hurdles throughout the process of my divorce. He was always very professional and helped make communication with my ex much easier. I felt very prepared going into the final court date and everything went very smooth on that day. I highly recommend Christopher and will be using him in the future for any legal needs.
Christopher Johnsen provided me with exception legal counsel during my divorce. He was especially considerate and thorough with both myself and my soon to be ex-husband. He made a difficult time more bearable. I would highly recommend Johnsen Law.
I worked with Christopher from August 2017-February 2018. He was able to help me get a parenting plan in place which was one of my main goals. He was compassionate and understanding during a stressful and scary time. I would recommend him to any one in need of a family attorney. Thanks again Christopher.
Christopher was exceptional from our first phone call. He understood my needs and concerns. His honesty and thorough knowledge of my case and options are what ensured my trust in him. I am grateful for all he did on my case. He clearly presented my options with each step of the case with conciseness.
Christopher helped me with my divorce. He looked out for me, steering me in the best direction every step of the way. I was able to leave everything in his hands & move forward in my life. The trust in him, paid off. He dealt with everything & I ended up getting what I'd hoped to, on a quick time. Grateful to have found Christopher!
Now I can see why there's so many positive testimonials about Johnsen Law. I highly recommend Johnsen law. Christopher Johnsen took a strategical approach that got me where I wanted to be in my custody battle, on top!!
I needed a pre-nup agreement and, after consulting many lawyers in Chicago and Wisconsin, I chose to hire Attorney Johnsen as he inspired me a sense of trust and professionalism. I have to say, he didn't fall short and he went above and beyond! Not only my pre-nup was completed in time for my wedding but also Attorney Johnsen made sure I agreed with and understood every single point of the agreement. In addition, his flat rate gave me the confidence I was gonna have no bad surprises or that I was gonna incur no hidden charges. I would definitely recommend him!
He did a great job , showed up on time to court prepared and ready to work , has a great attitude not a downer at all I would recommend him to all my friends.
He got me parenting time with my daughters, by myself. It is wonderful to see my daughters after 4 or 5 years of not seeing them. I was a rough divorce. Christopher is very personable & professional to my needs.
C. Johnson, awesome lawyer. He walked me through the legal details of my case making sure I understood everything. Friendly and reassuring, made my first time in court quite a bit less nerve wracking. Provided answers to all my questions and concerns, and was easy to contact. Would definitely recommend him.
