The Johnston Law Firm represented my sister and me on a case against an insurance company who wanted to deny our rightful benefits to our Father’s life insurance policy that he had paid into for 30 years. They wanted to pay us 80% less than its full value. The Johnston Law Firm treated me friendly and professionally. In our discussions regarding our case Marc was always honest and forthcoming with his expectations and our options. Mark’s passion regarding the insurance’s wrong doing of my father’s and to my sister and I was portrayed in his negotiation letters to the insurance company. Marc negotiated strongly on our behalf. When we thought we had lost Marc discussed one last prospect. We hired someone to do research in depth that was all encompassing of Oregon’s laws and procedures on paperwork, elder laws, and other legal formalities. Marc’s solutions were creative and strong. I was always kept apprised as the case progressed and kept informed either by Karen or Marc. Marc and I discussed costs and we negotiated a fair price. Marc was always willing to discuss our arrangement and worked with us on the costs trying to keep them down. If you want to work with friendly, compassionate, and down to earth professionals I would recommend The Johnston Law Firm to any consumers denied wrongfully by an insurance company.

Marc Johnston saved my wife and I from financial disaster! I was denied coverage for a heart attack that happened out of state by a short term insurance company. My health insurance coverage of over 20 years had ended and I chose this company to cover the 2 month gap. My heart attack happened during the 67 day time span. Bad luck was upon us as along with the denial came a hospital bill that was over 250 thousand dollars! Good fortune came to us again when we chose to hire Marc Johnston to file our appeal. What an excellent decision! Marc met with us for an hour, he listened intently and gathered information that was pertinent to our case while having a genuinely caring, concerned , personal conversation with us. He truly wants to know that his clients are fairly treated. Marc was thorough and concise in filing the appeal. He attached all necessary documents that helped substantiate our case. We soon were informed that the insurance company had overturned their denial! My wife and I will forever be grateful that we chose Marc Johnston law firm to represent us. We also thank Karen, his paralegal, for her kindness and patience. If bad luck comes to you, go to them!

Marc definitely did not let me down. Having been burned badly by a lawyer several years back, I walked away, deciding to never hire another attorney as long as I lived. But I was recently poisoned at a restaurant and my family and friends insisted I find an attorney, and kept relentlessly encouraging me. Finally they printed out a list, sat me down and said pick one. So I studied and read and called several attorneys, critiquing even how their receptionists treated me on the phone, and chose Marc. And not only has Marc won my personal injury case with a substantial payout of more than I thought I would get, during the process he has been professional, personable and attentive. He’s built a positive memory for me, in place of a terrible experience. Marc’s ability to put together a rock solid fortified argument is brilliant. He discovers and develops all angles merging them into a clear and concise logical conclusion. Wow……. You can trust Marc to do a knock up job, and that with class. Thank you Marc Johnston!

I was referred to Marc after I was involved in a car accident and attempted to negotiate my personal injury claim with an insurance company on my own. Even though the other driver accepted liability, and I spent several months on chiropractic treatment, the insurance adjuster and I wouldn’t agree to a settlement. Given my back injuries and need for continued treatment, I couldn’t accept the settlement offer, but the adjuster would not budge in our negotiations. When I hired Marc, he knew exactly what factors to emphasize and wrote an exceptional demand letter once I completed my treatment. Marc negotiated the settlement several times and was able to get a settlement that was far more than I expected and more than twice the amount the adjuster initially offered me. In addition, Marc negotiated with my medical providers and got them to lower their medical bills. I highly recommend Marc for any personal injury claim!

A Very Effective Negotiator: I found Marc Johnston online and then after our initial meeting hired him to represent me with several insurance companies that should have reimbursed me for my out of pocket costs. Marc was very adept at applying appropriate and increasing pressure on the insurance companies. Marc was very good about keeping me informed about what he was doing on my behalf and his opinion on what next steps to take. Ultimately the insurance companies settled before we filed a lawsuit. The outcome settlement was quite a bit more than I had hoped or expected. I was very happy not to go through the time and expense of a lawsuit. I attribute these great results to Marc’s professionalism and expertise at negotiating with the insurance companies. I recommend Marc without reservation.

I hired Marc Johnston to represent me after I was hit by a car while out walking my dog. I had serious injuries and had never needed a lawyer for anything in the past. He came to see me while I was laid up and explained how cases like mine work and answered all my questions and concerns. His legal assistant Karen Blok is amazing at keeping your case moving along and communicating with you any updates from Marc about your case. In the end, Marc secured me a nice settlement and even had my health insurance company walk away from their lien so more of the settlement ended up with me. I highly recommend Marc to anyone who needs a hard working lawyer that gets results and is friendly and professional- basically a good guy to have on your side!

We hired Marc after a former employer threatened to sue us for starting our own business. Their claims were ludicrous, they were trying to push us out of business on faulty claims. Marc Johnston represented us and gave us the confidence we needed to proceed as a new business. He made our stressful situation manageable. He prepared a very strong and persuasive response which made the other attorney drop the case. As a result of Marc’s representation our company is still in business and flourishing. Marc was efficient and easy to get a hold of. He was with us to the very end of our case and communicated the details with us very well. We would highly recommend Marc to anyone looking for a lawyer to represent them or their small business.

Marc did a Great job doing what he said he would, Marc is a Nice guy and a fellow fishermen. Marcs Paralegal Karen is a Very nice lady, I always enjoyed talking with her. Although Marc and I went rounds about certain aspects of my case and when it was all said and done Marc got Us the Max limits of the Insurance policy, Which made my kids and caregivers very happy because they got paid for all their help while I am going through a very difficult time being Permanetly disabled by bryce a PARKROSE Chiroquacker on 10-15-2014, which is a seperate case from what Marc settled up for me. I Gave Marc an A+ on His demand letter. Thank You Marc and Karen Salmon season is coming !

Marc represented me on a car accident. The guy who hit me was uninsured, so we were dealing with my own insurance company. Their settlement offer was insulting. Marc stuck with it and prepared to file a lawsuit. They ended up more than quadrupling their offer. Even after fees, I got way more money than I expected. Marc did a great job - not only on handling my case - but where it counts most - getting a good result!

We hired Mr.Johnston after my husband and I were in a hit and run car accident. Mr.Johnston and his firm were incredibly thorough in getting us a fair settlement from our insurance company with little to no pressure. I know that we would not have been able to get the same outcome without Marc and his team. We really appreciated having someone who truly cared about us on our side every step of the way.
