Reviews
I hired Mr Johnson to represent our family in a wrongful death lawsuit. May brother was killed and had two surviving children. Mr Johnson was very professional as well as concerned for the children. He advised us on all aspects of this suit and we prevailed as a result of his advisement. I would highly recommend Mr Johnson and would use his services if there is ever a need again.
