"Joe is a true professional and fearless advocate for his clients. I was Joe's adversary several times while I was a Morris County Assistant Prosecutor. Joe has a great grasp of the law and was a pleasure to deal with. I endorse this lawyer."

From both of my vantage points, Joe is a tremendous criminal defense attorney; he is thoroughly prepared and undeterred from taking on "heavy" criminal matters -- yet, can also handle the more routine municipal court subjects."
"Joe is an excellent advocate for his clients. He is well liked and well respected in the legal community. I strongly endorse this lawyer."
"Joe is an intelligent hard-working attorney. He is devoted to his clients and treats them honestly while giving them the best chance at success."
"Joe is a great attorney with a great respect for his clients. He is diligent about providing the best representation possible for each client he has and is always conscientious about his research."
