Great Attorney!

As much as I would prefer to no longer reflect on a dark chapter in my family's life that is now thankfully behind us, the dark chapter itself would not have ended in the successful manner that it did without Joseph Lento's tireless efforts on behalf of my son and family. Why did my son find himse...lf in the position that he did? Because of one individuals's inexcusable maliciousness, and as I was to soon learn, because of how allegations of sexual assault are viewed today on college campuses. My son had worked tremendously hard to earn acceptance into a top-ranked school, and he was continuing on the path he had set out for himself years earlier. With graduation in sight, and expected attendance at a top-ranked graduate program as his next step in life, my son had the terrible misfortune to be accused of a sexual offense by a former girlfriend, another student who had attended the same school. As one can imagine, with such an allegation came a tremendous burden which words cannot describe. Having only dealt with attorneys in my business affairs, I had no familiarity with what was to come. I only learned how much was at stake after my son was charged by his school. I have a college-age daughter, so I understand the seriousness of what young women face in life, albeit from a father's perspective. No one of course, male or female, should have to be subjected to unwelcome sexual advances or conduct. That being said, nor should anyone be falsely accused of wrongdoing as was the case with my son. Upon recognizing the implications of what was taking place at my son's school, I was very fortunate to have been referred to Mr. Lento by a colleague whose family he had helped in a different capacity, but also in a time of need. After speaking with Mr. Lento, I knew he was the person to help us through this trouble. Mr. Lento took the time to listen, to offer his honest assessment of my son's situation, and as importantly, to give insight about how the matter must be handled. My concerns by no means disappeared after speaking with Mr. Lento, but I felt a sense of relief knowing that he would do everything possible to defend my son against these baseless allegations; allegations motivated in part by a failed teenage relationship. Ultimately, Mr. Lento was with my son and family every step of the way in dealing with school officials and law enforcement, and dedicating himself to mounting a defense that allowed my son to be vindicated, and to be able to continue with his strides in life. My son again has the rest of his life in front of him, and were it not for Mr. Lento's dedication to the case, all of my son's and family's hard work over the years would have been in vain. Mr. Lento, words cannot express how forever grateful we are for you. Thank you.

Unbelievably committed

I left a message on Mr. Lento's answering service at around 6am. By 8am, he not only called me back, but was already looking into my case. From the first moment I spoke to Joe, his focus was on me and my family. Because of Joe Lento's tireless commitment to our family, this matter was resolv...ed, and resolved with the best possible outcome I would recommend Joe to anyone. Five minutes on the phone with him, and you know you have a fighter in your corner. Thank you Joe!

Proffesional and Affordable.

“I am very happy with the service I received from Attorney Joseph Lento. When faced with this situation we did not know what to do or where to turn. Our fears were put to rest when we found Mr. Joseph Lento. He explained everything that was going to happen and was always responsive to our questions a...nd concerns. He took the time to explain our options so we could weigh the pros and cons of each and come to a conclusion together. I would highly recommend Mr. Lento He was a true professional at all times and knows his way around the court system. He went above and beyond what we expected and was fair with his billing as well. Also When his job was over he continued to keep in touch and help me with questions I still had, I will always be grateful for all he did for me. Juanita

Great Attorney

I was pleased with Mr. Lento's service as my wife's attorney. He was very helpful and was able to give us peace of mind. During hard times while waiting for court outcome, he was considerate, and always accessible for any questions and concerns we had. He is an outstanding attorney, that goes about... and beyond the call of duty. He was responsive, thorough, and creative in his advice. I will definitely recommend Mr. Lento to people in need of a great attorney.
