Joe Mecca is the best!

Joe Mecca is everything you would ever want in a lawyer, and more. Intelligent and Strategic: Joe knows the law and he uses his knowledge to strategically handle your case and get the results you need. Work ethic: Joe always responds to my emails or calls in an extremely timely manner. Ther...e have been multiple times when Joe helped me well outside of "normal business hours." It was clear that Joe was working very hard on my behalf, and he would spend time outside of the office to work on, and think about, my case. I was consistently impressed with how quickly Joe could turn things around and get things done. Excellent writer: So much success in our legal system depends on the written word, and Joe's legal writing is excellent. He is thorough, detailed, and many times he articulated the facts better than I had explained them to him. Having read documents from other lawyers, it is obvious that Joe's writing is many levels above the rest. Networking: Legal success depends on how well your lawyer knows the other lawyers, judges, clerks, and everyone else in the legal system. Joe seems to know everyone, and more importantly, when you see how his peers interact with him, it is clear that he is very well respected and highly regarded. There were several times when I told people that Joe was representing me, and they asked me to please tell Joe they said hello. These interactions made me feel proud to be Joe's client. Ethical: Personally, the thing that I respect the most about Joe is that he will always tell you the reality of the situation. At every stage during my case, he always told me what to expect. He always set my expectations, and he never inflated any possible outcomes. I respect that Joe made sure that my expectations were realistic, thus enabling me to make informed, intelligent decisions about my case. Last, and possibly the best measure of Joe’s abilities would be that at every step in my case, Joe was able to get me what I wanted. I was always pleased with the outcomes and in the end, I would simply say, Joe won my case for me.

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.
