Title IX Savior

Hiring Mr. Lento was the single best decision my family and I made when the world came crashing down upon us in the form of a wrongful accusation resulting in a university Title IX case. Other legal counsel told us not to expect any positive or constructive outcome in the academic processes because o...f the political climate and procedural biases generally inherent to Title IX proceedings, without too much knowledge of the processes. After months of day-in-day-out worrying, we made the decision to consult a Title IX specialist. Just like that, we encountered Mr. Lento. He spared no time diving right into the details, was realistic about probable outcomes in consultation, and assuaged our worst fears without sugar-coating the facts one bit. We immediately retained him and achieved better results than we’d ever hoped for. Hiring him was the best decision we made as a family, and we owe a great deal to his training, professionalism, politeness, and expedient responses. He put our minds and hearts at ease, and helped us solve the matter. God bless you, Joseph Lento.

Very gateful

My family is very grateful for the skill and adeptness that Mr. Lento provided to help us navigate a very complicated title 9 case. We were extremely impressed by his knowledge, skill and sensitivity to this delicate situation. Through his careful attention and guidance we were able to emerge well ...from a potentially poor outcome. I would recommend Mr. Lento with the highest enthusiasm.

Working on a Sunday

My first esperience with the Lento firm was memorable, but in a good way. I had a time sensitive issue to discuss that cropped up on a Friday afternoon. Against all expectations, I was on a phone conference Sunday morning with Joseph Lento and his associate Keith Altman. They had done some homewor...k and provided me with supporting law and a path forward. They will definitely be my first call when push comes to shove. Highly recommended.

Lento is the lawyer you been looking for!!!

Mr. Lento is God-sent angel for my dear friend Simer. Lento helped Simer with her child support case. Lento stayed on top of things and was always available to answer her calls/emails. He helped Simer walk thru the process and is very professional and knowledgeable lawyer. Simer, having no family in ...this country and being faily new here, felt safe with Lento handling her case. She had full confidence that he will take care of things for her. Thank you Mr. Lento for taking care of my dear friend. I see her glowing and happy finally. Dear reader, Lento is the lawyer you been looking for!

Peace of Mind

When we saw the email that our son was charged with academic dishonesty, we panicked. The possible punishments included everything from a zero on the final to expulsion including a special dishonesty/failing grade for the course which would be a permanent mark on his transcript. We called Joe Lento..., and we immediately received peace of mind. He said since it was a first offense, Joe could probably could get the lightest punishment for our son. Joe was so attentive throughout the process, and understood exactly how to handle each decision point. He also "got in front" of the situation by quickly crafting a response to the university, and proposing a nearby date for the meeting. Because of Joe's prompting, it only took a few days from that first email to the ultimate resolution. My husband and I were barely holding it together so thank goodness it was quick! Joe's associate Keith helped prepare our son for the meeting, and he got the minimum punishment. It was well worth the money, we couldn't possibly have gotten a better outcome. Our son learned a valuable lesson, but thanks to Keith and Joe, it didn't derail his education or his future employability. If your child needs help with a school situation, I totally recommend Joe, and his associate Keith. You'll finally get peace of mind.
