Testimonials

Rick Johnson's influence on Florida civil rights/employment law is nothing short of astounding. He supervised more than 50 amicus briefs on employment law, and he personally authored more than 25 of them. For the past 20 years, these cases shaped court rulings on all the leading employment issues in Florida. It is not puffing to say that Rick Johnson is the Michael Jordan of Florida employment law.

I consider Rick Johnson to be a pinnacle practitioner. His depth of knowledge in the area of employment law is unparalleled. He is a long time practitioner, deeply committed to the cause of civil rights, and an outstanding advocate. He is the lawyer I turn to when no one else has the answer and when research has failed. He has an outstanding track record of success in his cases, and is known to and widely-respected by practitioners within our field and without. His ethics are beyond reproach. There are few lawyers nationwide in the field of civil rights who could match Mr. Johnson's substantive and procedural expertise. He is a leading light in the area of civil rights.

Rick Johnson is not just one of the best employment lawyers in North Florida, but in my opinion, the very best. He has done more to shape Florida labor and employment law than any other single lawyer on any side of these issues. From Key West to Pensacola, lawyers in Florida consider Rick Johnson to be the premier employee-side lawyer in Florida.

Phenomenal Lawyer!

From the start to the finish of my case, I knew I was in great hands with Richard E. Johnson, Attorney at Law. When I first met Rick to go over my case, he was genuinely concerned and asked a lot of questions. Rick fought for me as hard as he could. Rick and his staff were highly informative and upfront with me with all the billing procedures and how the contingency process worked. I know now, by using this form, you will be in the presence of a professional who has been in the business for many years and that he will fight for your legal rights! I was constantly kept in contact by email or by phone. I was always given the pros and cons about an issue so I could make an informed decision to determine the direction I should go with the case. I would highly recommend Richard E. Johnson, Attorney at Law, to anyone with Employment Law issues. I really felt secure in letting Rick handle my case. Through it all, Rick stood by me and fought for me until the end. I would recommend using this attorney as he is very well versed in the matter of employment issues.

Incredible Attorney, Spot On Professional

I was referred to Mr. Johnson with regard to legal matters connected to a previous employer. Mr. Johnson went above and beyond for me - not only did he patiently counsel me throughout the entire process, but he very quickly and astutely assessed me as a client and individual. Mr. Johnson was absolutely incredible - I feel very fortunate to have worked with him and cannot speak highly enough of him and his office. Thank you.

Wrongful Termination

Richard Johnson was the first attorney I sought out to take on my case. I didn't have to look any further. He handled everything for my case. He was very thorough and kept all communication lines open with me after I had to relocate to another area. Very professional and will represent you well. One of the best decisions in choosing him to represent my case.

Trustworthy, Dedicated, and Determined

I hired Rick Johnson for a wrongful termination case in which I was employed at a facility for 8 years. Rick is very trustworthy and eased my mind during the whole process. Rick was also very dedicated and determined to the very end. I am glad that I hired Rick Johnson to handle my case and I was very happy with the outcome.

Honest, Hardworking, Brilliant Attorney

I cannot begin to express my gratitude for Rick Johnson. His expert guidance & support led me through one of the toughest times of my life. Rick is articulate & not afraid to stand up for what is right. Rick advised me with such knowledge of the law, specifically discrimination & harassment I always felt confident & secure in his recommendations. If you're looking for an attorney that truly knows the law & puts his client's best interest first & foremost look no further than Rick Johnson.

Outstanding In Every Sense

Rick Johnson represented me in an extremely contentious and complex employment litigation case against a large company. He handled every brief, filing, and argument with attention to detail and legally sound arguments. I was able to relax knowing my case was in good hands. He is responsive, accessible, and organized. He is clearly an employment litigation expert.

Like a knowledgeable friend

Rick took on my case of discrimination against a state university. He believed in me and worked with me for nearly 4 1/2 years of fighting the battle. Thru federal court (we won) then thru federal appeals court (we won again). He stood by me and fought to obtain justice for the wrongs committed against me. I would recommend him to anyone that has suffered from the actions of an employer who mistreats their employees

Employment Negotiations

Rick was incredibly helpful to me during a difficult time negotiating a resignation/settlement with my employer. I would not have had the success I did without his help. He was a staunch advocate for me and also walked me through the process step-by-step.

Would recommend it to anyone needing help!

Rick helped me with a suit against a former employer; he was supportive and willing to walk me through the legal process. Rick reviewed my case, answered all my questions, told me about his background and what he recommended, this made me comfortable to hire and work with him. The case took its twists and turns, Rick and his team kept me updated and requested information as needed. Even when I was slow responding, Rick was persistent with me (which I needed!) and kept on track. I felt that I had access to Rick and his team at all times, I never felt like a number. I've worked with other lawyers in the past (for other needs), yet I felt Rick was the most, reliable, relatable, and 'real' with me; he was the right choice and I strongly recommend him.
