I wasn’t familiar with the process of child custody but I must say not only did Myles and his team direct me properly but it was a process that wasn’t money motivated. Very professional group, I was constantly informed of any step or move needed to be made, and they took a very stressful situation and made it a very pleasant storm. Thank you Myles and Johnson group for everything!”- Dwight

My Attorney and Paralegal Kara Mietlicki are such a wonderful team. I’ve seen them in action and it’s amazing.They will go to battle for someone that they believe in. They will work endlessly to make sure that their client gets their paternal rights. I am thankful that they are by my side through the toughest struggle I have ever experienced in my life. I highly recommend their representation.- Shawndabney W.

This review nor a amount a amount of characters can express how grateful I am for Johnson law. From the moment I called they gave me a peace of mind that they where going to be able to help me through my child custody situation. I worked with Yasaman and she was super professional and caring. From the moment she started working on my case and laid down the road map to our approach to my case it happened to a tee. She never misled me or over promises anything but over delivered every step of the way! The last 6 months would of been hell if it wasn’t for Johnson Law and Yasaman.- Jaime S.

Before working with Johnson Law. I had a previous attorney who completely screwed us over. He definitely only took us on for the money. He had no communication, mixed us up with different clients and so much more. So my husband and I were very scared working with a different attorney and getting screwed over again but we took the chance with Johnson law. We are currently working with Shana Velez, Kristina Contreras, and Julie Hernandez. After expressing my concerns because of the previous attorney they have kept amazing communication with me. They know who they are speaking to every time, they know my case, and they definitely don’t try to just take my money. They do their best to save me money as much as they can! These ladies have done such an amazing job with my case so far! 10/10 highly recommend! I will be back with another review once we are done working with them :)- Sierra S.

Shana Velazquez and Julie Hernandez helped me with my divorce and they were amazing. Shana was so good about explaining everything to me and calming my anxiety. Being 64 and going through a divorce was very daunting to me and I appreciate their help and kind words more than words can say. I highly recommend them!

I hired Johnson law group for an adoption matter. I worked with Daniel Sol as my attorney and his assistant Katie Wilson. They were with me every step of the way. Daniel listened to all of my concerns and helped to address all issues. Without their assistance and guidance, I would have had a much harder time making it through my case! I highly recommend Daniel sol, Katie Wilson and Johnson law group

Myles is the best representation for anyone who has to go through an APR case. From day 1 he was very welcoming and attentive to me and what I was going through. I always felt very respected by him and the other members of his firm. Myles always took the time to really investigate any information or things involved with my case. I knew he was truly invested in my best wishes. When there were deadlines that needed to be met, they always were. If I was ever confused about a process, paperwork or court proceedings Myles took the time to explain and make sure I was comfortable and understood what was going on. All the way through Mediation. He was an absolute success and I could not have asked for better representation. I will always recommend Myles to anyone in need an attorney.
