We had a very instructive and educational consultation with him. He's incredibly patient, extremely knowledgeable and explained things to us in a way we could understand (layman's terms-not legalese). We're both very grateful to him and his wonderful wife for helping us and setting us on the right track.

Before my mother, who was mentally incapacitated, died in 2018, she gifted the family home to her…read morehandyman because Sean Tanko drafted Amendments to the Trust. Without my knowledge, one amendment removed me as Successor Trustee and appointed himself Successor Trustee. The 4th Amendment gifted the family home to my mother's handyman. Two out of the 4 Amendments were not notarized. It has been a nightmare ever since. Fast forward to July 2025. Due to what I believe to be a malicious, intentional breach of fiduciary duties, I was forced to hire two attorneys to support my claims against Sean Tanko. Attorney Alice Denton helped me regain possession of my family's home after incurring nearly $150,000 in legal fees, which does not include the additional costs of settling $40K with the handyman. The second and current attorney, Timothy R. Treffinger, has filed a civil complaint against Tanko to recoup legal fees, punitive damages, and compel Sean Tanko to release the inheritance to the FOUR Norrington beneficiaries. It's been almost SEVEN YEARS, and Sean Tanko maintains possession of the Norrington Trust inheritance totaling over a quarter of a million dollars. Currently, Mr. Tanko has refused to comply with a Court Order to respond by July 1, 2025, to Civil Complaint A-23-879462-C. This is another example of his intentional maliciousness stall tactics, which continue to be displayed, apparently without consequence. In 7 years since my mother's death, Tanko has been allowed to behave in what I believe to be blatant legal malpractice with zero culpability because of his position & status in Clark County, Nevada. Currently, I'm in the process of filing a THIRD complaint with the Nevada State Bar. Both prior complaints were rejected, despite the submission of three reams of exhibits as evidence. In May 2021, the Nevada State Bar congratulated Sean Tanko on their website. This is a direct conflict of interest.

Let me first start with a very enthusiastic "Thank You" to Ryan Johnson, of the Law Offices of…read moreJohnson & Johnson! Kudos to his staff as well. I am extremely pleased and satisfied with the outcome of my case regarding my interest in my parents' Living Trust. Ryan was awesome from my first consultation meeting with him in April of 2016, and thru the entire process of my case, which is concluding now. He planned our strategy from the beginning, and was always on-point and timely with the execution of the necessary tasks. Throughout this whole process, he always kept me updated; and was always immediately responsive to my questions, and provided good guidance. This responsiveness, his ability to read the situation at hand, and his intuition, always left me with the peace of mind and confidence that I was in good hands and getting the best representation possible. For someone who worries as much as I do, it was such a relief to me to be able to just put my trust in Ryan and let him do his job. Great job Ryan!! I would strongly recommend him to others without hesitation. Professional, knowledgeable, considerate, responsive, and reasonable in cost. All the qualities you look for in an attorney. Many thanks again Ryan! Sincerely, R. Salazar
