Marc Johnston & OTLA
Included in February Issue of Trial Magazine

February, 2021

Marc was recently featured in the February 2021 issue of TRIAL magazine. The article, written by Maureen Leddy, talks about Marc coming up with the idea for the pro bono clinics after seeing evacuees along roadways and at gas stations, and cars packed with possessions with nowhere to go. “I knew we had to move quickly,” Marc said, who contacted OTLA leadership about helping fire victims with filing property insurance claims. OTLA and AAJ stepped up and offered resources like a series of free videos for homeowners, businesses and renters who were affected by the Oregon wildfires.

October, 2020

Marc Johnston and his family were evacuated during phase 2 of Clackamas County evacuations and saw how traumatic and devastating these wildfires have been to people living throughout Oregon. As a trial attorney, Marc’s entire life’s work has been devoted to helping people and he knew that his fellow associates in the Oregon Trial Lawyers Association would answer the call and volunteer time and resources to help Oregonians in need. Over 70 attorneys have joined the cause in offering Pro Bono legal resources in the communities hit the hardest by the recent wildfires.

At Johnston Law Firm, it is our hope that we, along with our brothers and sisters at OTLA, can help wildfire victims throughout Oregon get back on their feet by helping them obtain the help they deserve from their insurance companies.
