A Leading Plaintiffs' Attorney In The Legal Malpractice Field. Attorney Richard Gibbs Johnson, founder of the law firm of Richard G. Johnson Co., L.P.A. in 1990, is a leading practitioner in the area of plaintiffs' legal malpractice and related legal ethics and professional responsibility issues. Mr. Johnson stands leagues apart from other Ohio law firms in devoting his practice exclusively to this niche area, and he is the only Ohio attorney who limits his practice to this area. Mr. Johnson represents clients who have suffered serious financial losses due to negligent, reckless, intentional, fraudulent, or unethical conduct on the part of their lawyers or sports agents. He holds a master's degree in business administration as well as a juris doctorate, giving him unique insight into the business considerations surrounding high value claims. Businesses, individuals, professionals, and sports stars turn to him for experienced guidance and representation in major damage claims against their former lawyers or sports agents. Mr. Johnson is very selective in the cases he accepts: Prospective clients must have minimum economic damages of $250,000 for consideration, and prospective clients are typically charged a substantial initial review fee, which may be waived for significant claims. Cases may be taken on a contingent, hourly, or blended rate, depending upon the nature and value of the claim. Typically, bankruptcy, criminal, and domestic relations malpractice cases are handled on an hourly basis only, however, exceptions may apply in very limited circumstances.. Million-Dollar Results. Richard G. Johnson began his legal career nearly 25 years ago. Since then, he has earned a highly respected reputation for his success in handling complex legal malpractice and sports agent malpractice cases. He earned the largest settlement in the history of the Major League Baseball Players Association Grievance Arbitration on behalf of a professional baseball player against his lawyers and sports agents. Mr. Johnson has also been named among the Top Trial Lawyers in America and selected to the Million and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, reflecting his outstanding track record of settlements and verdicts.. In Good Company. Throughout his career, Mr. Johnson has been actively involved in various professional ethics organizations, including the American Bar Association's Center for Professional Responsibility and the Ohio State Bar Association's Legal Ethics and Professional Conduct Committee. He is one of only a handful of attorneys in Ohio elected into the American Law Institute, arguably the most selective and important legal organization in this country.. Contact. For more information, contact the law firm of Richard G. Johnson Co., L.P.A., in Cleveland, Ohio, at, by fax at, or by the contact link on this page. Typically, Mr. Johnson prefers to receive only the following information initially: (1) your complete contact info; (2) complete contact info for who you want to sue; (3) the subject matter of the underlying representation; and (4) your estimated economic damages. If Mr. Johnson does not have a conflict of interest in representing you, and if your claimed damages meet his initial threshold, he may ask you to submit a detailed factual outline, before scheduling a teleconference to discuss your matter. Mr. Johnson would in no instance become your attorney without entering into a written and executed attorney-client contract with you.. Ohio Legal Malpractice Statute Of Limitations. In general, in Ohio, you have one (1) year from the date of occurrence to bring your legal malpractice claims, that period is tolled by the lawyer's continued legal employment on the same matter, and if you do not discover the legal malpractice during the representation, then you have one (1) year from the date that you and/or the reasonable person would/should have discovered the same. In addition, there are other tolling provisions as well as other considerations that may effect the determination of this date. As such, please keep in mind that the determination of this date is an art, not a science, and if you believe that you have valid claims to assert, you should retain an attorney immediately.. Other Options. If you cannot afford to retain me, you might consult your local legal aid society, your local or state public defender, the ACLU, any other legal clinics within your area, or the local bar associations for referrals to other lawyers. Please note that in regards to fee disputes, most bar associations have arbitration programs for the same that are free to you.
