The Law Offices of Peter L. Johnston, L.L.C. represent individual clients and ordinary people in criminal offenses, personal injury and immigration matters. The practice is led by Peter L. Johnston, Esquire, who has been admitted before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania and all other state courts in Pennsylvania, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court of New Jersey and all other state courts in New Jersey and the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey since 1996. CRIMINAL OFFENSES: We understand that being arrested and charged with a crime can be a traumatic experience. We have been successful in attaining acquittals for numerous clients and negotiated favorable non-trial dispositions for others. We will guide you through this difficult experience. In some cases, a thorough and aggressive defense at trial is necessary. In other cases, an appropriate non-trial disposition may represent the best resolution for you. PERSONAL INJURY: Being injured can be as traumatic and disruptive to your life as it can be physically painful. If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence or carelessness, you may be entitled to compensation for your pain and suffering, lost income and other losses. We have tried in court and settled out of court numerous personal injury cases, particularly those involving automobile accidents and slip-and-fall accidents. IMMIGRATION: Perhaps you are seeking to have a loved one brought to the United States, are already here on a temporary non-immigrant visa and wish to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (a/k/a “green card” holder) or are already a Lawful Permanent Resident and now wish to become a citizen. We will assist you in your immigration efforts.
