Who We Are

Under the guidance of Senior Partner and Founder, George Melville Johnson, we’ve carved out a unique niche for ourselves by focusing on an exclusive range of practice specialties over the past 30 years—especially those involving federal practice and employment law cases. Our Federal Employment Lawyers are well versed in all areas of employment law that a Federal Employee may encounter and our Equal Employment Opportunity Attorneys (EEO Attorneys) have successfully litigated countless cases. In addition to helping Federal Employees with claims of discrimination, our Merit System Protection Board Attorneys (MSPB attorneys) have also successfully litigated cases before the MSPB to further protect the rights of Federal Employees as well as producing results in Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and Office of Special Counsel (OSC) claims. What’s more, our Federal Disability Attorneys have helped to find a meaningful solution for those who are unable to continue working in their positions.

Rest assured, we’ll be there with you every step of the way—from filing an initial complaint through mediation, hearing and settlement—offering clear professional legal guidance with a personal approach.

what our clients are saying

“I really appreciate how much Melville Johnson cared about my case. From the very beginning of the process, their federal employee attorneys were friendly and very informative. We won the case, and they were even helpful afterwards, answering any questions or concerns. Thank you Melville Johnson, and I will definitely pass your good work along to others in need.”

“Despite the complexity of my situation, Melville Johnson took on my claim and immediately put me at ease with a clear demonstration of their expertise with EEO law. From the very start, the firm’s team members have been amazing to work with—hardworking, honest and extremely trustworthy. I would recommend them to anyone who needed this type of legal assistance!”
- Bridget B.

“As a person with a disability working for the federal government, I knew I needed to get the right legal professional assistance for my case. And while the process could have been tedious and overwhelming for a layperson without much legal knowledge, Melville Johnson alleviated all the potential stress involved by taking the guesswork out of my hands. With their help, I received disability approval in record time! I want to thank you for the superior work your firm performed. From my very first contact, your Client Intake Manager took the time to answer all of my initial questions and provide detailed information at every turn. And your attorneys showed nothing but professionalism and kindness throughout the process.”
- Sandra B.

“The consummate professionals at Melville Johnson work closely with you to ensure your rights are being protected. As a current federal employee, I found myself in a situation where the job I was asked to do didn’t match the position description for which I was hired nor the compensation I deserved. With the firm’s help, I was able to obtain back pay and transfer into a position that matched the job I was performing."
