She works alongside Founder and CEO Lauren Johnson-Norris, Senior Attorney Rosanne Faul, Attorney Alex Mathews, and the firm’s dedicated support staff in serving clients throughout California facing criminal charges, juvenile dependency proceedings, and child welfare investigations.
A lifelong Orange County resident, Gracie earned her Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration with a concentration in Legal Studies from California State University, Fullerton, graduating Cum Laude. She later earned her Juris Doctor from Western State College of Law, where she also graduated Cum Laude. During law school, she completed a criminal law externship with the Orange County Public Defender’s Office, where she developed a passion for criminal defense and client advocacy.
Following her admission to the California State Bar in 2024, Gracie represented indigent families in juvenile dependency proceedings before joining Johnson Criminal Law Group. Her experience includes advocating for parents in child welfare cases and helping clients navigate complex legal proceedings that affect their families and futures.
Gracie became an attorney because she wanted to use her education and skills to help people navigate an often-intimidating legal system. She is committed to fighting for clients and helping families through some of the most difficult challenges they will ever face.
At Johnson Criminal Law Group, Gracie works with clients facing criminal charges, juvenile dependency proceedings, and child welfare investigations throughout California.
