Successful Outcome!

Mr lento responded imediately, on a weekedn whe we called him about a very upsetting false allgation that was made against one of my college aged children. This was a situation that could have potentially ruined my child's college career and who knows what else. The whole notion of innocent until pr...oven guilty just does not exisit anymore. Mr Lento was also able to engage one of his colleagues to provide additional expertise. After some very stressful months, the case was dropped and our child exonerated was able to move on without any repercussions. We are very grateful to Mr Lento

Very pleased with process and outcome - Highly Recommend

An urgent Sunday morning call from my daughter, away at school in Philadelphia, had me reading online reviews, searching for an Attorney. The underage open container ticket she was issued had the potential to derail her upcoming professional license and employment applications. The many revi...ews for Joseph Lento were consistently very positive and so we placed a call. From the very first contact (within an hour) both my daughter and I felt confident that we had selected the right attorney. Joe listened, was responsive, empathetic and supportive with excellent communication. He was also both persistent and creative in finding a solution to quickly resolve the case despite Covid delays. When the school started a student discipline process for the same event, Joe again was responsive and supportive, resulting in minimal impact. Joe completely handled the court process, allowing my daughter to focus on school and work. He completed the expungement process promptly, with the result that this single ticket "never happened". We have already shared his name and number with my daughter's friends. If you are looking for an attorney to be in your corner and provide excellent service and communication, I highly recommend you give Joseph Lento Esq a call. Deborah

Joeseph Lento is an extremely competent and effective attorney.

Attorney Joseph Lento provides an incomparable degree of expertise in representing his clients. I consulted at least a half dozen lawyers regarding my legal matter before deciding Joseph Lento offered the highest chances for success in resolving a traffic offense favorably, and I was not wrong. Havin...g no prior offenses on my record, when I researched the negative ramifications were I simply to plead guilty and pay a fine for a speeding infraction, the potential severity of the consequences could have been far longer lasting and more punitive beyond what a rational understanding of events should realistically merit. But, when you are at the mercy of the justice system, competent and qualified legal representation is essential. You cannot afford to take chances with representation that does not have your best interests at heart combined with a realistic understanding of your situation, personally, professionally, and legally. Joseph Lento was the only attorney in my search who did not hood-wink me into believing he could make the infraction disappear. Rather, he immediately established a plan of action requiring much effort on my behalf in establishing my background, my characterization of events, character references, and the completion of a defensive driving course previous to my hearing. All of these steps led to a positive resolution, including a reduction in fines, the removal of points against my license, avoiding a potential suspension of my driving privileges, and a healthy and candid conversation with the prosecuting attorney. While our criminal justice system offers many advantages over other nations, it is hardly without its flaws and often ignores the contextual relevance of the individual circumstances that may have led to your infraction. Your money is much more wisely spent on competent and experienced legal representation to communicate your characterization of events and offer a sincere willingness to achieve a fair resolution that benefits all parties involved, as opposed to simply admitting guilt and paying a fine and accepting the consequences to achieve an immediate resolution which, in effect, can result in long-term ramifications you cannot contest later. If you’re reading this review, it is likely you find yourself in a challenging situation requiring immediate action, and I strongly urge you to consult Joseph Lento and his team before you arrive at a decision. Retaining his services was the best possible course of action I could have taken, and the favorable results he achieved are proof. Please weigh your decision carefully and know that the cost of an experienced attorney is worthwhile when you need to establish your portrayal of events, navigate the intimidating justice system we live within, and to preserve your reputation. I cannot thank Joseph and his team enough for their effort on my behalf, and you won’t either.

Best Attorney Ever

I’m certain many if not all would agree that Joseph D. Lento is a very rare individual in the legal spectrum whom I was fortunate to have met during my legal battle in 2008. I’m not going to bore the readers with details, but keep in mind that my lack of understanding human nature and life experience...s caused me to make some critical mistakes which could’ve hinder me from living life as a law abiding citizen. Major thanks to Joseph D. Lento who allowed himself to see the honesty in me by listening without conclusion, spoke to me without bombast which drove him to help me as he made certain that I got cleared from the waggish legal mess I was in. Subsequently, I was able to continue with my life and work my way to Assistant City Manager at one of the most prominent company in the country, got married to a kind hearted woman and we now have a beautiful daughter. Other than my resilience and innocence; Joseph D. Lento is the MAIN reason that I am whole today. Joe is more than my Attorney; he’s a big brother the Supreme Creator have sent to rescue and cleanse me of all legal stench. Thank you Joe!
