This law firm is one of the oldest around, and it truly shows in their professionalism and expertise. The attorneys on staff are outstanding. Janelle Simpson was especially helpful. He answered every question I had and provided all the documentation and information I was seeking promptly and thoroughly. I’m very appreciative of the excellent service I received. I highly recommend him and I am very familiar with the Law circle and community.

Ask for Johnelle! He is professional, knowledgeable, and highly effective. He ensured I was fully taken care of throughout the process and negotiated strategically to maximize my outcome. He truly leaves no stone unturned.

Anita was extremely rude when I called for help with a payment. She hung up on me four times before even addressing my concern. When I finally got her to stay on the line, she simply transferred me to a department that was already closed. It was a very frustrating experience, basic customer service courtesy and professionalism were completely lacking.

I cannot say enough about Johnelle Simpson and his paralegal, Macey. They were AMAZING! They were patient and caring, as I was in a 2-year battle for my mom's benefits and so frustrated with the whole process. Mr. Simpson immediately understand what we needed and how to get it. A big win in just a few months. So very grateful for the expertise and professionalism - my mother now has what she needs to be cared for.

Throughout my professional career, I have had the privilege of working with numerous attorneys. However, Johnellle Simpson of Fortson, Bentley, and Griffin, PA, has consistently demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication. His meticulous attention to detail and genuine concern for my inquiries have been unparalleled. Johnnelle possesses a remarkable level of composure and effectively places himself in my position, empathizing with my perspective. While he is unequivocal in pointing out errors, he also conveys unwavering belief in my case when necessary. If you ever require legal representation, I highly recommend seeking Simpson’s services.

I cannot say enough great things about the incredible experience I had working with Alex McDonald! From start to finish, he was the epitome of professionalism—personable, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping me navigate a very stressful franchise situation. What truly set him apart was his ability to explain complex legal matters in a clear, down-to-earth way that made everything easy to understand without ever making me feel inferior. That kind of respectful, thoughtful communication is rare and so appreciated. He always responded in a timely manner, which gave me even more confidence that I was in capable and reliable hands. He made me feel like a priority—not just another case. If you're in need of a franchise attorney who truly knows what they're doing, do not hesitate to call McDonald. He is an absolute standout and a powerful ally to have on your side. Highly, highly recommend!

My wife and I didn’t know who to call to handle a type of legal case that we thought we would never be in. I was referred to FBG and specifically Attorney Johnelle Simpson. Mr Simpson help us enormously through a very long and stressful legal case. He was always available to answer any questions we had even ones already answered. I know I pestered him constantly because of my complete lack of understanding of this type of case. Johnelle was constantly assuring of us and, in my opinion, very knowledgeable about these types of cases. He has done many before. I was never give wrong advice and he was always part of any meeting with the opposing counsel. Only one time that he couldn’t be there when experts came to see us but he had a fellow lawyer show up for us. He was also just as friendly and knowledgeable. I will DEFINITELY use THE FBG LAW Firm again and especially Johnelle Simpson.

Johnelle Simpson was professional yet personable! He is so easy to work with and made the guardianship/conservator process smooth and efficient for our family!

We worked with Johnelle Simpson on a personal injury claim requiring a conservatorship to be set up. He and his assistant communicated regularly and made what would have been a complicated process simple for us and a fair outcome. We highly recommend Johnelle Simpson for any complex insurance matters.

Far to expensive for quick and simple tasks. Nearly $800 to transfer a deed. Found another lawyer to have the same work done for $350. I do not recommend them for quick and simple tasks.

If you need a fantastic attorney that understands insurance look no further than the law firm of Fortson, Bentley, Griffin and ask for Johnelle Simpson. He took on my claim against one of the largest insurance companies and helped get me a fair settlement without going to court. So happy and thankful I found him.

Need directions from Google. The lady at the desk greeted us, and Bert, the attorney, was very patient and explained options to my husband's parents for their wills.

I have used Fortson Bentley for family and estate legal purposes for over 20 years. We hired them in 2023 for the first time for something a little different after a horrible vehicle accident. This was our first time working with Johnelle Simpson and we found him to be extremely knowledgeable of insurance and other related issues in our case as well as very efficient dealing with the defendant, medical costs, etc. Johnelle was very good in keeping us informed as things progressed and negotiated a very fair and reasonable settlement. I highly recommend Fortson Bentley, and Johnelle in particular if you need an attorney with his insurance skillset.
