AFJ Law Group provides high-level legal strategy and counsel for founders, creatives, and real estate professionals building bold businesses.
Whether it’s structuring a new venture, negotiating a commercial real estate purchase, reviewing critical contracts, or serving as outside general counsel, we work closely with growth-minded clients to anticipate risk, design better deals, and protect what they’re building.
We serve a wide range of industries, from creative service providers and consultants to real estate investors and scaling startups. We also handle select business disputes when strategic enforcement is needed — but our work is rooted in solving problems before they escalate.
Need a legal partner who thinks like a founder? Let’s talk.
Alexis Johnson built AFJ Law Group for the entrepreneurs, creatives, and investors who are seeking a strategic partner who actually gets it.
Before becoming an attorney, Alexis was a business owner herself. She knows what it’s like to negotiate deals, manage risk, and lose sleep over what’s in the fine print. That firsthand experience fuels her practice today, where she helps growth-minded founders navigate legal complexity with clarity, confidence, and leverage.
Her legal career began in litigation, earning a reputation as a persuasive advocate and sharp strategist in high-stakes business disputes. But as AFJ Law Group evolved, so did her mission: to offer high-touch legal architecture, contract advisory, and fractional general counsel services for clients who are scaling intentionally, and don’t have time for boilerplate or B.S.
Alexis has been recognized as a Super Lawyers Rising Star (2022–2025), a Go-To Lawyer for Business Transactions, and was recently named to the Michigan Lawyers Weekly 2025 Class of "Influential Women of the Law."
She serves on the boards of CREW Detroit and the Detroit Bar Association, and is the founder of Founder's Reserve Detroit—a private dinner series for women entrepreneurs building with intention.
When you're ready to make the next right move, Alexis is the advisor you want on your side.
"Alexis is an outstanding attorney who embodies the qualities one would seek in legal representation. Her preparedness, intelligence, dependability, persistence, and caring nature make her a true asset to her clients. I wholeheartedly recommend Alexis to anyone in need of legal assistance, as she consistently goes above and beyond to deliver exceptional results."
