Gave me my life back

Joe Hennessey is a life saver. He is a smart, accomplished professional with extensive experiences as a police officer for over 23 years, and practicing criminal law. I had a second OUI case which flipped my life upside down. Joe was by my side through it all. Every hearing. Every motion. He even dro...pped me off once when I needed it. Most lawyers on the clock will delay and delay to raise their earnings. Joe reported ready every time for 9am, and outside of our trial date we were the first or second case heard every time. He truly had my best interests in mind and guided me every step of the way. In the court room he really took control. He pointed out every inaccuracy and helped me receive a NOT GUILTY! Another review references him as a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I like that- and couldn’t agree more. I’d almost describe him as a beast. Thank you Joe for saving my life and giving me a second chance.
