I would HIGHLY recommend Buck Johnson. Him and Misha, his assistant, are great. I found myself in a DWI case that seemed to have all odds and pieces of evidence against me. After speaking with several defense lawyers, I explained my position to Buck. Between his approach, experience, and truthfulness, I felt most confident with him. He agreed to look at everything in my case, and then explained the actual law behind it. After reviewing it all, Buck explained my options. One was filing a motion and having a hearing. Before a plea, I chose the motion route. At the hearing, Buck clearly demonstrated he was a tough, knowledgeable, capable, and experienced defense/trial lawyer. In my case, it seemed more so than than the assistant DA. Things turned in favor of actual law, a dismissal, and I am relieved today. It is all behind me. He definitely is one of the best, if not the best out there!

Due to his reputation and skill, Buck was able to defend me against very serious felony charges. Buck effectively communicated the extenuating circumstances of the case to the DA and the courts granted me freedom. What began as serious felony charges, resulted in a class c misdemeanor and the charges will be expunged. He and his assistant Misha exhibited the utmost professionalism and consideration in every instance. I couldn’t be more grateful!

I will rarely take time to write a review however in this case I feel it is a must. When people are faced with legal circumstances which can literally change their life for the worst, good legal counsel is a necessity. A friend gave us Bucks Johnson’s name and number on a Sunday night, and he answered his phone that night and agreed to meet with us the next day to handle my daughters case! His professionalism and expertise gave us needed reassurance in an extremely difficult legal situation regarding false accusations which had led to an arrest. Throughout the legal process, his communication was superb. The end result what is the best resolution that we could’ve ever hoped for, and it was only because of Mr. Johnson‘s determination, expertise, and care! His counsel is worth every penny and more, and I don't believe we would have had the same end result if we had used a different attorney. Thank you Buck Johnson!

I had a complicated case with multiple charges 2 DWI, 2 months apart, 2 different counties including a nursing license on the line. Buck was fair, knowledgeable, available, and very thorough. Buck also referred me to an amazing Board of nursing attorney that helped me obtain my nursing license. Buck guided through this process and obtained what I believe to be the best results given my current situation. I definitely recommend Buck Johnson to anyone that is in need of great counsel.

Mr. Johnson was very easy to work with. Calm, cool and collected you feel like he really listens and is not in it for the money so to speak. He wants to be realistic and straightforward. Good guy, highly endorse his services.

I cannot recommend Buck enough! He is extremely competent as well as pragmatic. He knows what is worth fighting for and what is not, without wasting his clients' money. He is familiar with the prosecutors and judges and their temperaments and records and who might be amenable to what compromises. He is also incredibly responsive, inclusion via text and email. He got my charges reduced to something minor with a short probation and the ability to have the charge expunged. I am so happy that I chose Buck.

A family member was charged with DUI after totaling my car, and we hired Mr. Johnson upon the recommendation of a family friend. He and his staff were very professional, and clearly quite knowledgeable. Our first appointment was within days of our initial call, and future phone calls to his office were quickly responded to by him or his paralegal. He handled all interactions with the court, without the need to disrupt our lives by being present. Upon reviewing the police in-dash cam, he found what he felt would be the key in having the case dismissed. Mr. Johnson did not sugar-coat with false positive expectations; he would still have to win the battle, but did voice a very good chance for a dismissal. My family member only had to appear for the pretrial hearing; no testimony from him/her (staying intentionally vague). Even though the arresting officer appeared and testified at the hearing, Mr. Johnson was able to artfully cross examine the officer, and used the police cam video to successfully demonstrate the reasons for why this case should be dismissed....and the judge agreed!!! I highly recommend Mr. Johnson for any needs you are facing. Just remember, not all cases can be won....but he clearly has the skills to find you the best fighting chance.

It is my pleasure to recommend George "Buck" Johnson - a GREAT MAN, and a GREAT LAWYER!!! Mr. Johnson is an excellent attorney, and if they gave medals for lawyering he'd deserve the highest commendation medal! From the moment I walked into Mr. Johnsons office, he was both perceptive to my needs and quick to get to the root of the problem I faced. While my case wasn’t exactly an open/close shut case and took nearly two years to resolve, Mr. Johnson and his team made me feel comfortable by continued communication and sticking to a step-by-step action plan. Most of all, Mr. Johnson wasn't afraid to think "outside the box" for my case, and helped me achieve a better resolution to my problem than I could have ever hoped for, a dismissal! Mr. Johnson is a compassionate, intelligent, driven attorney who works hard for his clients, and that is why I give him my highest recommendation! Thank you Buck! JMill

I received a DWI charge several years back. I went through a couple attorneys before I was referred to Mr. Johnson, or "Buck" as he is known by, by a friend that said he was the "best attorney ever". Of course, I took that phrase with a grain of salt at first, but decided to meet with him to see if he was the kind of attorney I wanted on my case. When I first met Buck, I immediately felt at ease. You could tell just by speaking with him for a few minutes that he was extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He is a very straight shooter and will tell it exactly how it is. And boy did he. After a quick review of my paperwork, he said it looks like it could be a tough one, but he wanted to take a closer look when there was more time. I came to Buck with a case that looked gloomy, to say the least. It was a case that seemed stacked against me. Buck assured me not to get ahead of myself, allow him to take a closer look at the evidence, then we would proceed from there. After reviewing the evidence, Buck recommended to me that we fight the case. Never having fought a case before, I was reluctant, but after hearing his reasoning and the confidence in his voice, I agreed. Then the battle began. With it being the court system, it was months before the trial actually occurred. Even though the whole process took months, I never felt like I was out of the loop. Between Buck and his assistant, Misha, there was constant communication back and forth, they answered all the questions that I had, and they were always just a phone call away. They gave me plenty of heads up if I needed to arrive at the courthouse, they advised what to wear, what to expect, everything. As the trial neared, I became more and more nervous. I had never been to trial before. I had no idea what it would be like. But, of course, Buck called me several days before the case itself and went over exactly what to expect. He advised that I would not have to go on to the stand. Just let him take it over from there. Then the day of the trial comes. Buck meets me in the hallway as expected. With a smile on his face, he basically says, ‘Let’s go to work’. I am still nervous, but that quickly subsided once I saw Buck in action. Watching Buck during the case was like watching a superhero in action. He knew exactly what to do, what to say, and when to say it. It was almost unreal. I have seen those shows like “Law and Order”, but none of those attorneys even came close to how well Buck did in the trial. It was amazing seeing this man at work. The case was won purely because of the familiarity, knowledge, and expertise of Buck Johnson. Now, I must admit, this is unfortunately not my first experience with criminal defense attorneys. However, this was by far, the best experience I have ever had with any attorney. Buck Johnson is by far the best attorney I have ever seen in action. Hiring Buck for my case was the best thing I could have ever done and it was truly an honor working with him. I would recommend him to anyone that wants to work with the best.

I was charged with a DWI back in August of 2014 and buck Johnson really helped me out. I was 20 at the time and was so worried and stressed out about the fees that I would have to pay for since I knew family members who went through the process. The messed up thing about it was that I was smoking pot not drinking when in was pulled over. Buck took my case and gave me a timeframe and his thoughts on the case. I had 2 previous lawyers who didn't believe my story and where just going to walk me through the DWI process but buck believed my story and was able to get video tapes of my sobriety test, blood work, police reports etc. Not only did buck get my DWI changed to an obstruction of the hwy but he got me unsupervised probation!!!! The process did take a about a year and a half but buck had advised me of the long process when we originally spoke ,and his assistant Msha always kept me updated on the case and arranged meetings with buck so he can answer all my dumb questions when I requested. Thanks for everything Buck !! Very grateful for your service!!

Buck was a superb attorney from start to finish. From the very first consultation, he made sure that I had realistic expectations about the DWI I was charged with. He took the time to learn about my situation and was even able to get the judges order for the breathalyzer rescinded. Buck was always prompt to answer my questions, even when they were very unique. Buck was able to negotiate an obstruction charge with deferred adjudication, the best solution considering my predicament. I would strongly recommend anyone in the unfortunate situation of facing a DWI to talk with Buck and hire him to represent you.

Buck and his office staff were kind, friendly and very professional. Emails and phone calls were answered quickly and they were great about keeping me updated with my court dates. I would recommend Buck for anybody in need.
