Johnson has broad experience

Mike Mitchell misrepresents Brandon Johnson’s experience for Walla Walla Superior Court Judge.

Johnson has broad experience in our judicial system. He earned a criminal justice degree. He graduated with honors from Gonzaga Law School.  He served two years as a law clerk with the Washington Court of Appeals researching the law, reviewing the facts, and preparing the initial analysis for appealed Superior Court decisions. (50% were criminal cases.) He practiced thirteen years representing clients in civil and criminal cases.

In 2015 Brandon, to better serve the law, became a full-time mediator and arbitrator, an alternative choice for settling legal disputes not inside but outside the court room, applying the same law and facts.  He has mediated over 500 cases, arbitrated 45 cases.

Mitchell claims Johnson lacks experience by comparing only their respective 2015 -2020 court appearances (Mitchell’s 138 cases to Johnson’s 3 adoption cases). Mitchell omitted that Johnson’s legal practice in that period was purposely directed to be outside the court room.

Mitchell intentionally does not use the numbers of court appearances in

2010 to 2014 because Johnson “appeared” in 250 cases while Mitchell “appeared” in only 129.

If you value personal integrity, Vote for Brandon Johnson.
