About
When you hire me, you are a person -- not just a "file" or a "fee." I understand that you seek a lawyer when life is at its hardest. I work with you to get results. I am easy to reach, provide you with real-time access to your entire file, and keep you updated.
Real clients have given me outstanding reviews than can be viewed by searching "Avvo reviews Jarrett Johnson."
I was awarded the Missouri Bar's highest honor for trial attorneys, and have succeeded on every front of the practice of law: criminal defense -- ranging from murder cases, burglaries and robberies, drug cases, and traffic charges; civil cases involving personal injuries from car accidents or other tragic events; and discrimination cases where people have been discriminated against because of their race or gender.
I enjoy winning against the odds. Time and again, I have gone to trial and won non-guilty verdicts for wrongfully accused people. Repeatedly, I have had insurance companies deny payment for injuries, only to work harder and dig deeper to change their mind and make my clients whole.
I also enjoy getting to really know my clients. Many of them remain friends long after my work for them is done.

Jarrett assisted our family with a Platte County municipal charge and was able to work with the prosecuting attorney to get the charges dropped. Very responsive, competitively priced and eager to help. We felt that we were in good hands every step of the way.

Jarrett is amazing. He is incredibly knowledgable and kind through the whole process. Best of all he is easy to communicate with - while keeping us in the loop the whole way through. For any future lawyer matter we will use Jarrett again.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Criminal cases are priced based on the seriousness and complexity of the case. I don't pull a number out of the air and leave the client guessing. The client knows what they are getting in return for what they pay -- and there are NO SURPRISES. Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis -- so the client pays nothing unless I obtain a result for them. I advance all fees and expenses. Many cases are handled for just a 25% fee when no lawsuit is filed.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I respond rapidly, and try to put a new client's mind at ease by letting them know that I will be the one handling their case -- not some less-experienced assistant. I listen to them rather than talking about myself. I answer all questions. I get to know someone and learn about their case before I discuss money. When fees are discussed, everything is in writing. Every penny paid to me is explained and accounted for.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I received the Missouri Bar's highest honor for trial attorneys. I have served as Chair of both the Jackson County Court Rules Committee and the Missouri Bar's Criminal Law Committee. I have practiced law in Kansas City for 24 years (more than half my life). I have gone to trial and won cases ranging from first-degree murder to car accidents. I have a Juris Doctor from the University of Missouri--Kansas City. I have been licensed in Missouri state and federal courts since 1994, and have appeared in courts as a visiting lawyer from Idaho to Louisiana.
