Scot Kraeuter handled my complicated military divorce, custody and child support case. I cannot say enough good things about him and his team. Scot answered all of my questions and eased my worries. He spent a ton of time fighting for me and my child. I cannot recommend Scot and his team enough. He is professional, responsive and understanding.

I was anxious and scared going into a divorce & custody case. The moment I consulted with Paul Johnson, he made me feel at ease. He was real about expectations and very informative about what the process would be like. I am so incredibly thankful for Paul and his team for helping me through this journey and helping us achieve a resolution that is best for my family. Do not think twice, Paul Johnson is the best you will find.

Paul was recommended to me by an attorney out of Atlanta who gave him an amazing recommendation. I had a bad experience with a previous attorney and Paul and his team were perfect for me. I was more than pleased with them during every step of my long divorce. I would highly recommend him no matter what your divorce holds - mediation, discovery issues, hearings, briefs, or a trial - I worked with him through all of these and never once doubted that I had the best representation.
From our first meeting, I knew that he would work to achieve the very best for me. He was extremely informative, realistic

Scot Kraeuter was recommended to me. Mr. Kraeuter guided my case and all of its elements through the Chatham and Glynn County courts and even through trial. While he likely has dozens of other cases, I never once felt like mine was less than his most important. He was thorough and knowledgeable. He surrounds himself with a great staff of intelligent, organized, and caring individuals. Johnson Kraeuter, LLC delivered for me and more importantly for my children. THANK YOU! I strongly recommend this firm and especially Scot Kraeuter to anyone seeking a family law attorney.

Paul Johnson and his super staff (Samantha, Elizabeth, and Katie) get only the highest marks from me, and I’m a tough critic of professional service providers. When I first approached Paul about ‘trouble in paradise’, he asked many questions about my relationship and financial situation. From there, he gave me a list of items to take care of in advance of serving my spouse with divorce papers. Though overwhelming at times, I followed his advice in detail over the following weeks and am so glad I did. From the moment papers were served, Paul kept us in the driver’s seat of the process leading

From the first meeting I had with Scot Kraeuter I felt as if I was working with the best divorce lawyer in Savannah. Not only did I get excellent legal representation and customer service, I also received coaching and insight that went beyond legal advice that was impactful in understanding my path forward and helped me through this difficult time. In addition I saw firsthand that Scot has motivation and passion for his clients success that seems to go above and beyond the norm.

When I asked my dad’s best friend and local Real Estate Attorney who he would recommend to represent me in what I knew would be a long, drawn out, nasty divorce and custody battle he didn’t hesitate to recommend Paul Johnson. His words were, “he is the best! Very level headed and aggressive. Call Paul!”
When going through a divorce, especially when a child is involved, the unknown is terrifying. It was a long time before I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. Paul and his team were always there to comfort, counsel, and assure me they were doing everything in their power to get my case
