Meet Alexis F. Johnson – The Advocate Behind AFJ Law Group

Alexis Johnson is not your typical attorney — and she never set out to be. Her legal career began not in law school, but in the courtroom, shadowing her mother, a formidable trial lawyer. While most kids were on the playground, Alexis was watching oral arguments and learning firsthand that success comes from preparation, clarity, and commanding presence. From an early age, she understood that judges aren’t obstacles — they’re decision-makers looking for someone to make the right case.

After earning her law degree from Wayne State University, Alexis quickly stood out. Known for her sharp instincts and fearless advocacy, she was nicknamed “The Hammer” at her first firm, where she consistently delivered results in high-stakes business litigation. She went on to join a respected litigation group, representing corporate clients in complex commercial disputes.

But Alexis didn’t build AFJ Law Group to follow the traditional path — she built it to redefine it.

As a former entrepreneur herself, Alexis understands how personal legal issues can feel when you’ve built something from the ground up. She founded AFJ Law Group to provide the kind of strategic, high-touch counsel that serious business owners and real estate investors actually need — direct, clear, and deeply invested in the outcome.

Today, Alexis is known for her creative problem-solving, persuasive written advocacy, and no-nonsense approach to helping clients protect what they’ve built. She advises on partnership breakups, complex contract disputes, commercial real estate matters, and internal ownership conflicts — with a focus on clarity, leverage, and long-term positioning.

Her work has earned wide recognition, including being named to Michigan Lawyers Weekly’s 2025 Class of “Influential Women of the Law,” a Super Lawyers Rising Star from 2022 to 2025, and a Go-To Lawyer for Business Transactions. She also received NAWBO’s 2025 Next Gen Entrepreneur Award and currently serves on the boards of both CREW Detroit and the Detroit Bar Association.

"Alexis has a meticulous approach to preparation, with unmatched attention to detail and a relentless focus on achieving the best possible outcome.”

"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."
