This is the professional you want on your side

I have been extremely impressed with Joseph's candid and honest approach to the legal (child support) issues handled on my behalf. Joseph is a consummate professional who has earned my trust and appreciation through his thoroughness and exceptional communication. Joseph was very upfront as to the p...otential costs and outcomes of going to trial. It is my honor to recommend Joseph Flanders and I will be working him additionally in the future on my estate needs.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
