As founder and head attorney at Johnson Attorneys Group, James Johnson focuses on putting his client’s needs first. “I enjoy meeting people. When I meet a client I like to sit down with them and find out what all their needs are so I know how to best handle their case,” Johnson said. “It’s also important for me to not only resolve a case, but to obtain the full value for my clients. Sometimes this means we have to take the case to trial.”
 

Indeed, Attorney Johnson says he empathizes with his clients and wants nothing more than to see them get better. “I take an active part in ensuring my clients are given every opportunity to have a full recovery,” Johnson said. Over the years, Mr. Johnson has helped many clients recover compensation for their losses, but he was most touched by one case where his young client was permanently injured by a DUI driver.
 

“This client was a young man who was severely injured in a DUI car crash. He became a quadriplegic and his life was forever changed by this drunken driver,” Johnson said. “There is no amount of compensation I could obtain for him that could make him whole again. It was heartbreaking.” The case left an indelible mark on Johnson. After the case ended, he pursued an affiliation with Mothers Against Drunk Driving. His sponsorship of the local Walk Like MADD fundraiser helps support efforts to educate drivers about the impact of drunk driving as well as help victims of DUI crashes and their families with various services.
 

As the founder of Johnson Attorneys Group, James Johnson is passionate about helping his injured clients recover losses and receive the maximum compensation available. Under his leadership, he has recovered more than $97 million in verdicts and settlements for his deserving clients.
