    A Firm That I Trust
    This is a firm that I trust. I specifically recommend Brendan Bukalski. He is extremely professional, calm, and well mannered in the courtroom. He assisted me for several months on a difficult case and was able to negotiate with the state's attorney for a desirable outcome. He was consistently available and knowledgeable for all of my questions.

    Extremely Positive Experience
    Had an extremely positive experience with the Johnson Law Group. The attorney (Alex Kurth) clearly laid out the options, negotiated a plea deal in a very timely manner that met all of my expectations, and was there to actively support me through the final steps of the process. The legal assistant (Holly McCann) kept me abreast of the status throughout the entire process and was kind and courteous. I am 100% satisfied with the outcome in what started out as an extremely stressful situation. Well done, Johnson Law Group.

    Dawn is the absolute best
    Worked with Johnson Law Group after I made the largest mistake of my life. Dawn is the absolute best, and answered every single one of my questions in a timely manner. I was able to speak with my attorney when needed, and they were able to guide me through a very lengthy and complicated process, but made it as easy and simple as possible. I would recommend them to anyone who made the same mistake I did, and I thank everyone in their offices for their time and assistance.

    The way Johnson Law Firm handled this was flawless
    I was in Springfield for a couple of days. I was wrongfully arrested and charged with resisting arrest. I asked the officer if I was being arrested or detained. He refused to answer. Without any respect for the law, the officer became frustrated with me exercising my rights. After several times asking the officer the same question, he decided to pull out his taser and told me if I don’t put my hands up he is going to use force. Once again I asked the same question within my rights. The cop immediately holstered his weapon and came up to me and started handcuffing me. He then told me I’m going to jail for resisting arrest. I wasn’t even read my Miranda rights. I called Mark Johnson and he jumped right into action. No charges were filed and I didn’t have to show up for any court dates. The way Johnson Law Firm handled this was flawless. I highly recommend Johnson Law Firm. I have used them any time I have issues with law enforcement. Thank you, Mark Johnson, for your service. It’s people like you who actually CARE and will make a big difference in our justice system.
