Utah Family Law, LC

I am an attorney in another state and was blessed to work with Eric and his team on a shared matter. In my first interaction with Eric I was fascinated with his understanding of the law and professionalism. As a younger attorney still developing his own practice, I really appreciated the insight I was able to gain by working with him. If I had to deal with a divorce in Utah, he would be my first call. He is a formidable attorney and I'm glad I don't have him on the other side of cases in my state.

I know the difference between right and wrong, but do not know the specific laws to pursue justice. I went to different attorney's and they pointed me in the wrong direction, causing me financial and emotional distress. Eric was not like the other attorney's he knew exactly how to pursue the case, along the way he had to deal with a difficult opposing counsel and repeated negotiations. The most amazing part of my experience with Utah Family Law is that if the case was idle, they do not charge. If I would have pursued this case on my own, it would have taken years off of my life. You took a tremendous burden off of a single mom and her two children. I wish there was a way to give Eric 6 stars.

You might as well go pay for your Ex's attorney, not only will it save you money but that way you will at least know that it will benefit someone other than Eric Johnson. Eric Johnson is a thief, he took around 8+k from me back in 2016/7. There is a reason why so many people are saying he is a terrible attorney. I was shocked to see he was still practicing, that is why i feel obligated to write a review to keep people away. He sat on my case and let it go on for months until i could no longer afford to pay him, Nothing got resolved, he did not satisfy any of his obligations he just sat back and collected a check. You can send me a message saying contact our office and we can talk about this or whatever your standard disagreement policy in response to messages but unless you are having me contact you in regards to get my money back don't waste your time. YOU ERIC JOHNSON are a THIEF and you know it. You are not fooling anyone on here.

I referred a family member to Eric and was very pleased with his attention to detail and professionalism during the case. Eric knows family law and the family law court system in Utah. He is very responsive to questions via email or phone and always willing to assist as needed with inquiries. He also offers flexible alternative fee arrangements if they are needed, and he is willing to work with clients in this regard. I highly recommend Eric.

This is how you know Eric is a terrible attorney. I won my case. I feel like I won my case in spite of my attorney, not because of him. He dragged it on for over 2 years, was arrogant, belittling, and cost me thousands. Just 2 months after my case was closed, I had to go back to court and represented myself because he had neglected to file an important form. Your better off doing it yourself than hiring this crook. Also, notice how he responds to his bad reviews with accusations of being a legitimate person etc. where other firms respond far more professionally...... there's your sign. That's the treatment you get overall with Eric. Retain someone else.

Though I will not discuss the details of my case, I have nothing but the highest praise for Utah Family Law and every one of the associates that I have worked with in this firm. In particular I worked with Attnys Eric Johnson and Mckail Hamilton. Eric was extraordinarily meticulous and will not back down. However, if you're looking for attorney who are unscrupulous or willing to help you to fight unethical or immoral battles, go elsewhere. Eric, Mckail, and all those who I have been associated with in the firm are not interested in clients who want to unjustly hurt their opponents and will not stomach doing anything that is not in the best interests of children and others in the periphery of such matters. I've worked with many attorneys and I have never worked with ANY attorneys who I would put on a higher pedestal for personal integrity and ethics. Whenever someone hires an attorney, especially in family law, it means they are going through a particularly difficult time in their lives. At such times, emotions run high and clients can make serious errors in judgment. Follow Eric's advice to the "T" and rest easy that the situation will be far less painful and complicated than it would otherwise have been.

My husband and I have been battling with his ex-wife for years over silly little things, as well as pretty major infringements of my husband's rights. We couldn't afford a lawyer, so represented ourselves the best that we could, doing A LOT of research. Once we reached a point where I couldn't figure out what the next step was I contacted Utah Family Law, after reading Eric's Blog. Not only did Eric reach out to us very quickly, but also his colleague, Russ (yes, contrary to some of the reviews there is more than one lawyer in this office). They gave us some fantastic advice to move forward on our own, but also motivated us to find some way to be able to hire them in order to make the process move much more quickly and prevent being taken advantage of by the opposing attorney (who lives up to all the negative stereotypes). When we met with Eric he had a no-nonsense approach and a blunt demeanor, which is very refreshing. He may not be a fancy hoity-toity firm, but he is passionate about what he does. Having seen many other lawyers who seem to go into court unprepared (I saw this with my sister's horrible lawyer, which is part of why we decided to self-defend), and without a full understanding of the situation, it is nice to meet with someone who seems to be very with it and invested in our situation.
