Mr. Lento Fought False Title IX Charges On Behalf of My Son and Won

As the parents of a young man at college, we of course had the expected concerns with our son being away from home for the first time, especially with him being on the other side of the country. He had worked his entire to reach this point, having excelled both academically and also as an athlete, a...nd he would be playing a Division I sport at a top academic school in country. We could not be more proud as parents. Part of life is learning through experience for better or worse, but we spoke with our son before he left for school, letting him that he may find himself in social situations for the first time that can led potential issues. We tried to focus on the positives of a young man being away at college, and we were of course incredibly upset when we learned that our son was being investigated for a Title IX complaint made by an ex-girlfriend which was all the more upsetting because our son is a good person. He was raised to be a gentleman and we knew the claims made against him were false. Our son had worked his entire life to get to where he was and we were not going to let false allegations upend his life. We learned of Mr. Lento's success with defending against Title IX charges, and we asked him to help our son. Having to endure the school's Title IX process and the potential issues that can arise along the way is not easy, but Mr. Lento came through with flying colors in all respects. He explained what would need to take place every step of the way, he fought tooth and nail for our son, and he made a difficult time in our family's life bearable as we knew he was there for us and doing everything he could to save a young man's future. In the end, Mr. Lento demonstrated why he is the best at what he does. He literally saved a young man's life. Thank you, Mr. Lento - We are forever grateful for you.

Title IX

Mr. Lento was exceptional in the handling of this case. He exemplifies professionalism, and at the same time, demonstrates care, which is what was felt throughout the entire process. The outcome was positive and it felt like justice was served. I give my highest recommendation to Mr. Lento, and his t...eam regarding, navigating the Title IX process. He’s an excellent attorney. Thank you, Joe!

Joseph every time

I STRONGLY recommend Joseph Lento to be your attorney and help with anything legal and/or title IX related. I found out some horrible results that were unfair and atypical. I had just one week to make an appeal. The pressure and nature of the issue caused extreme emotional distress. I found Joseph...’s Law firm online after calling around to what must have been every attorney office across the entire state from where I live. Joseph responded within a minute of reaching out on a Saturday afternoon, took my case against all odds, and for that I am grateful. Joseph has more experience than all the attorneys in my state combined, is incredibly professional, compassionate, and remains logical in a very emotional situation. Me being a very emotional person, he came through for me in every possible way even though in a different state. The final result was the best possible option, and Joseph helped me understand the pros/cons of every possible alternative. He works hard to make sure you are taken care of, and he will literally drop everything he is doing to help you. He always responded within minutes and the same day for any and all concerns, strategizing to help me achieve the best possible option against all odds. Joseph, thank you for taking the pressure off of my shoulders and for taking my case on such short notice. I appreciate your compassion, your professionalism, and your ability to stay calm and logical in the middle of what felt like chaos for me. If I ever need an attorney in the future again, you are my first choice every time. Thank you so much for all of your time and support! E

consistently accessible and supportive-Joe Lento is excellent!

I am glad to write this stellar review for Joseph (Joe) Lento as his performance during my recent ordeal was exactly what we needed. The back story is not as important as the outcome-a success by most any measure. First, I was so well prepared for the Title IX investigative interview, with all of the... questions asked by HR already having been presented by Joe as possible questions. Also, his calm and assertive manner helped me stay centered and non-defensive during the process of investigation, in reviewing correspondence, and during the absurdly drawn out wait period. This was a harrowing experience, but my husband and I are keenly aware how much having Joseph Lento as representation facilitated this treacherous and unpleasant chapter. He is top notch on responsiveness, professionalism, candor and acumen. I recommend him without reservation!

Joe helped us win!

When an innocent young guy was wrongly charged in a Title IX we luckily found Joe. It was a difficult process and Joe helped us through the steps with confidence, openness and great strategies. The case was dropped and he made all the difference. Thank you Joe.
