Relationship Between the Companies
Johnson Firm (“JF”) lawyers are licensed to practice law only within the states of Arkansas and Tennessee, but we associate on certain types of cases with lawyers licensed or otherwise admitted to practice law throughout the United States. Attorney Group is a network of attorneys and law firms formally or informally affiliated, through these associations, with the Arkansas law firm of JF. Attorneys and law firms associated by JF are determined by JF, in the professional judgment of its principals, to be experienced in and qualified to handle the litigation matters for which they are associated.
An address listed in a directory or on a page on this website is typically that of an attorney located at the address who has associated, or has agreed to associate, with JF on certain types of cases. No representation is made that the Companies or attorneys employed by the Companies are located at the address or licensed to practice law in the jurisdiction in which the address is located. The Companies have endeavored to use listed addresses with the permission of the associated attorneys and to list addresses accurately. If you see a listed address that is not for an associated attorney, please contact us so that we make any necessary corrections. If you are an attorney interested in becoming affiliated with the Companies, please contact us for more information.
Inquiries, Consultations and Fees for Services
Initial consultations on a particular matter are provided free of cost, and upon agreement with the potential client and in the sole discretion of JF, JF will enter into a contract for legal services with the potential client which describes in writing the fee charged for a particular engagement, as well as other terms of the representation, including disclosure that other attorneys or law firms may be associated to participate in the representation. If known, the identity of any affiliated attorney or law firm that will have a role in the representation will be included in the contract. Otherwise, in the event that counsel is associated on a particular matter, the client will be informed and any consent required by applicable rules of professional conduct will be obtained.
All personal injury matters are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning that a client pays no fees or costs unless a recovery is obtained on the client’s behalf. Fees paid in the event of a recovery are a percentage of the total recovery, as agreed to with the client prior to undertaking the representation and as set forth in the contract for legal services, and are intended to be in accordance with standards in the legal services industry and, where applicable, state rules of professional responsibility. Costs incurred in the representation are deducted from the client's portion of any recovery but are not required to be paid out of pocket by the client. If there is no recovery, the client will not be responsible for any cost incurred in the representation (unless expressly agreed to by the client prior to the cost being incurred). The use of affiliated attorneys or law firms does not increase the fee, although other factors may increase the fee.
Inquiries made through this website are typically responded to by JF or its representatives. JF reserves the right to not respond to inquiries on this website and may, at its discretion, direct inquiries to other attorneys or law firms without an initial response. In such instances, JF makes no representation regarding the ability of the responding attorney to represent the potential client in accordance with applicable standards of care. JF may or may not decide to associate as counsel on such cases.
Telephone calls made or received by the Companies regarding an inquiry made through this website may be recorded for record-keeping, training and quality-assurance purposes.
State Laws Vary
The laws of each state are different. This website may contain information about general or common rules that apply in some states. This website may also contain information about verdicts or settlements in past cases. You cannot assume that the same rules apply, or that the same result would occur, in your state or any particular state or case. Every case is different, and past results are not predictive of future outcomes.
Statutes of limitations are especially important. Every state has laws called the “statute of limitations” which set a deadline to file a lawsuit. A lawsuit filed too late may be thrown out, regardless of the defendant’s fault or the severity of the injuries. Some states have a three-year period for negligence injury claims; the time period in other states may be longer or shorter. Because investigation and research is needed to identify all possible defendants and theories of recovery, if you have an accident or injury, you should consult a lawyer as soon as possible.
Legal and Ethical Requirements
The Companies have tried to comply with all legal and ethical requirements in compiling this website. We welcome comments about our compliance with applicable rules and will update the site as warranted, upon learning of any new or different requirements. We only want to represent clients based on their review of this website if it complies with all legal or ethical requirements.
To the extent that the professional responsibility rules of any jurisdiction require us to designate a principal office or an attorney responsible for this website, Johnson Firm designates its office at 610 President Clinton Ave. #300, Little Rock, AR 72201, and attorney Anthony Johnson.
Honors, Accolades and Recognition
To the extent that any display of honors, accolades and recognition made on this website are considered attorney advertising, no aspect of such advertisement has been approved or sanctioned by the supreme courts or accrediting organizations of any state. The inclusion of an honor, accolade or recognition is not intended to compare the services of any attorney with any other attorney or law firm, nor is it intended to create an expectation of results that can be obtained in a particular matter. Any honor, accolade or recognition that uses the term “super,” “best,” “superior,” “leading,” “top-rated,” or the like, only means that the attorney has been included in a list containing that term. It is not intended to convey any superlative ability of the attorney recognized.
The websites of the organizations conferring the honor, accolade or recognition may be linked to from the badge or logo displayed on this website, and you are encouraged to visit those websites to learn more about the process by which the the attorney was selected. Where the logo of a publication is listed as featuring the Companies or an attorney, you are encouraged to perform an author search or other type of search on that website for the information communicated by or about the Companies or the attorney on that website. Alternatively, information about honors, accolades and recognition can be provided upon request.

To the extent applicable, the Companies adopt and make the following disclosures:
Alabama: No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC: Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field of law, nor do they mean that such a lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered. This notice is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
