GREENSBORO, N.C. – Carruthers & Roth announced
today that attorney Ron Johnson [crlaw.com]
has been inducted into the North Carolina Bar Association’s Legal Practice Hall
of Fame – a recognition honoring outstanding lawyers who exhibit the highest
standards of ethics, professional competency, and service to both the bar and
the community.
The award was announced during the June
annual meeting of the North Carolina Bar Association, and an induction ceremony
was held on September 14.
Davis McDonald, a Carruthers & Roth
colleague who nominated Johnson for the award, says he clearly meets the Hall
of Fame criteria.
“During his nearly five decades as an
attorney, Ron has become well known in Guilford County and beyond for his
knowledge, work ethic and generosity,” McDonald says. “He has become a trusted
advisor to thousands of loyal clients and to a wide range of civic groups and
charities.”
At Carruthers & Roth, Johnson works
closely with clients on matters involving estate planning, estate
administration, business law and nonprofit corporations. He is board certified
in estate planning and probate law and is a former board member and past
president of the Greensboro Estate Planning Council. He also has been
repeatedly recognized by Business North Carolina’s “Legal Elite” — ranked by his
peers for his excellence in tax and estate planning.
In addition to his commitment to his
profession, Johnson is well-known for his commitment to the broader community.
He has been honored by many charitable and civic organizations for his service,
including the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro, Family Services of
the Piedmont, Triad Health Project, Guilford Green Foundation, the Human Rights
Campaign, Planned Parenthood, AuthoraCare Collective, Women’s Resource Center
of Greensboro, and Greensboro Commission on the Status of Women.
Johnson is also known for his ability to lead
successful community fundraising campaigns. He has raised more than $1 million
to support the Triad Health Project and has received a Greensboro
Philanthropist of the Year Award from the Triad Society of Professional
Fundraisers.
Before joining Carruthers & Roth, Johnson
was a founding member of Johnson Peddrick & McDonald, a Greensboro-based
law firm. He and his partners joined Carruthers & Roth in 2021.
