About Erik A.
Erik A. Johnson earned his law degree from the University of Denver before embarking on a private practice career that has spanned decades. He established a law office under his own name in 1990 and has practiced steadily since then. Early in his career he practiced as "Erik A. Johnson, Lawyer at Law," later operating as Erik Johnson Law Offices, and in 2020 he also became a partner at Johnson Carey Law.
His career has alternated between courtroom work and municipal service. In 2019 he served as a municipal judge for the Town of Eagle. The following year he took on a judicial role in the Town of Minturn. Those municipal judgeships placed him on local dockets and familiarized him with ordinance matters, hearings, and the pace of municipal courts.
Johnson’s private practice dates back to 1990. Over those years he handled client representation under his own firm name. In 2020 he joined Johnson Carey Law as a partner and lawyer. That move added a firm partnership to a resume built largely around solo practice and local judicial duties. He has continued to maintain offices associated with both Erik Johnson Law Offices and Johnson Carey Law.
He maintains current professional memberships in bar and legal organizations. His municipal judgeships and long private-practice history mean he is experienced with courtroom procedure and the operational side of small-town government. Colleagues describe him as steady in court and thorough in preparation. He has worked on matters that require hands-on courtroom advocacy and the kind of practical legal problem-solving small communities often need.
Across several decades of practice, Johnson has balanced cases at the trial level with the responsibilities of local judicial service. He remains active in legal matters at his offices and in the communities where he served as judge. His practice has involved courtroom representation, handling hearings, and advising clients on matters that intersect with local government processes. Currently his practice centers on the work he has pursued throughout his career: legal representation and courtroom practice from his offices at Erik Johnson Law Offices and Johnson Carey Law.
