The Johnson Partnership was formed on 1st July 1990 and since then has grown to be one of the largest criminal law firm in England and Wales. Of the 10 people who walked through the door on the first morning four remain, even though one is currently on sabbatical. Bill, Chris and Digby remain as partners but they have been joined by the fourth first day member Emma Eardley who on the 1st July 1990 was our office junior. Since 1990 The Johnson Partnership has attracted more than its fair share of media exposure. In 2002 the partnership was the centre piece of the major channel 4 documentary series “Partners in Crime”. Our high profile cases and unusual working arrangements mean that we’re never far from the public eye. Many of our solicitors have appeared in the media and we are often called on by the BBC, ITV News and local radio to provide expert comment on criminal law issues. You can read more about our media work here. We also have a strong commitment to our communities and sponsor many local groups and activities Read more...

Amazing


“I honestly can’t fault the service I received. It was such a difficult time for me and my family, but Callie from the Mansfield office was incredible.
She was reassuring, patient, and went above and beyond anything I could have asked for. She kept us updated every step of the way, and her professionalism was outstanding.

I wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again if needed, though I’m hoping I won’t have to!

Her support made all the difference, and I’m so grateful.”

Ellie Carnay

I found Ellie to be very professional, yet at the same time very approachable and friendly and trying to put me at ease which under the circumstances I found myself in, was frightening and scary. Ellie explained everything to me and gave me advice in how to handle the police interview. The service I have had from Ellie after has been exceptional and I would thoroughly recommend her. She is a superstar in everyway.

Ellie Mae

Ellie was fantastic from start to finish. Very professional and astute. She took the time to listen to my perspective, and to understand my situation. The advice given was clear, concise and on-point.

Having been requested to a Police Interview for quite an absurd situation and never having been in any sort of “trouble” before, I was startled and nervous to say the least. Ellie quickly helped and gave me education to enable me the confidence I needed to see a positive conclusion from a potentially silly and vindictive case.

Thank you Ellie!

Just simply amazing!

Nothing is ever to much trouble, always available to answer any questions or concerns you might have.
We have the pleasure of Abbie being our solicitor and what an absolute credit to Johnson’s she is.
It’s not been the most straight forward but she’s always making us feel like everything’s under control, we have never had to worry about anything as Abbie as always taken care of it. Honestly she just is an absolute pleasure and if I could I would give her so much more than 5 stars.
Anyone who needs a solicitor I always put Abbies name forward, because personally I don’t think there’s better.
Thankyou for everything you continue to do.

About this branch

Description

The Johnson Partnership is one of the largest criminal law firm in England and Wales. We've achieved that status by being the best. We provide 24 hour emergency cover to handle arrests and interviews, and our team can take you through every part of the criminal justice process. Most cases begin with an arrest or interview by the police. If you are going to be interviewed you should always have a solicitor with you. It is free so you won't have to pay anything, and with our specialist team of police station advisors we can make sure you receive the best advice, whatever time of day or night. If the police believe that you have committed a crime then you may be charged and have to attend court. We have a dedicated team of solicitors who can represent you in court and advise you about the best course of action. Our advice is always personalised to you, to what is best in your individual situation. We will make sure that we explain everything clearly and help you to make the right decisions about how your case should go forward. Although the majority of cases are dealt with in the Magistrates Court some cases go to the Crown Court. We will help you decide whether that is right for your case, and if it does then we have a specialist team of Crown Court advocates and caseworkers who will conduct your case for you. We always work as a team with you. We will explain all the options that you have and how your case may go forward. Our goal in every case is to get the best possible outcome for you. As well as our general criminal teams we also have a specialist fraud department and a specialist prison law team.
