A Compassionate Lawyer
Joe Belluck cared about my best interest and fought hard to get me the compensation I deserved. I was very pleased with the outcome of my settlement.

Joe W. Belluck: A man with Principles, Dedication and Compassion
The very first meeting when Joseph came to our home to explain to us my husband's right to compensation for his Mesothelioma, I believed we were in strong, honest hands, with an extremely knowledgable attorney. He was first of all comforting, knowing that the lung cancer was incurable, so I didn't feel that my husband was just "one of many clients", but that Joseph cared to find out who my husband was and how and where did he get exposed to deadly toxic chemicals. Although I put on a 'brave face', I was scared and sad to be going through this. Our whole future was suddenly jeopardized, but Joe's assurance that he and his firm would fight hard until some justice was won for our family gave me confidence that we would get assistance, and we have.
Our case was not easy, but Joe put in the necessary research and work to find the documents showing my husband's employment many years ago. He also texted me to update me on my husband's condition during several depositions, something that was greatly appreciated. He also kindly mailed the book he has written on Mesothelioma to my daughter in California, so she could also learn about the disease and the process of defense for her Dad.
Joe assigned our case to his partner, Mr. Jordan Fox, and what a marvelous attorney Jordan is also; very humane, did a tremendous amount of research and helped to settle our case without the high cost of court!!
Also, the staff in Joe's office is wonderful, supportive, got right back to me, etc.
Joe Belluck is one of the finest attorneys I have ever met.
