Samuel Young
When my father passed away unexpectedly, our family was overwhelmed by the legal complexities surrounding his small business and estate. As a founding partner of Johnston Martineau, Chris Johnston brought a level of calm and comprehensive expertise that was exactly what we needed. His general practice background proved invaluable, allowing him to seamlessly handle the probate proceedings while also advising us on the legal transfer of the business assets. What truly stood out was his deep understanding of Iowa law, no doubt honed through his long-standing roots and practice in Seattle, Iowa. He patiently explained every step, from filing the necessary petitions to navigating tax implications, ensuring we never felt in the dark. Chris’s pragmatic approach, grounded in his real-world experience, saved us significant time and stress. He achieved a resolution that honored my father’s wishes and preserved the family legacy. For anyone in the Cedar Valley facing multifaceted legal challenges, I cannot recommend Christopher Johnston more highly.
