Estate Planning - Providing Soft Landings for Families
Growing up on a small farm in Central Iowa, I learned the importance of hard work, respecting my elders, and contributing locally. I graduated from Iowa State University, and eventually attended law school at the University of Wyoming. I have practiced law for several decades, focusing in recent years on estate planning, and I enjoy it.
When my grandfather passed away without a will when I was a young man, my family was devastated, as the government took 70% of his estate. That lasting impression drove me to begin helping people avoid such difficult ends, and instead provide a soft landing for their families.
That's what we do at Johnson Legal, PLLC. We provide soft landings for families. Give us a call. The initial estate planning consultation is free.

Our Story
- Q. Is there a certain age that you have to be in order to buy and invest real estate?
- A: There is no age requirement for owning property in NC. To enter a binding contract to purchase or sell property, the minimum age requirement is 18. Similarly, banks require you to be 18 to sign a mortgage, again, because it is a contract.
- Q. How long does it take for partition action after being filed?
- A: The time for partition to conclude, once commenced, can vary from a few months, to much longer, depending on the parties involved.
- Q. What form do I need in order to do a Quitclaim deed to transfer my house into my Trust, for which I am the trustee?
- A: Property can be deeded using a number of types of deeds, which convey different types of interest and or carry different types of warranties. Many deeds on file are incorrect as it is not the Recorder of Deed's job to review recorded records. My recommendation is you contact an attorney to be sure your deed is recorded correctly so it conveys as you would like. There are DIY sites online but is it worth the risk?
