Great lawyer, no more needed to say.

Very professional. Hired him when my other lawyer just couldn't get the job done. In the unfortunate event, I would 100% hire Joe again.

Dedicated to getting you the best outcome

I contacted Mr. Megale to represent my younger brother last minute. We didn’t have an attorney nor did we have thousands of dollars lying around to hire just anyone. Mr. Megale was our savior to say the least. He’s extremely personable, understanding and straight forward. He gets to know his clients ...in addition to knowing the facts about the case. He took the time to explain all legal issues to ensure we knew exactly what was going on at all times. The communication between us, him and his paralegal Jessica was always timely and sufficient. We were never left in the dark. Additionally, he was able to help us achieve the best outcome at such an affordable rate. Mr. Megale is the only guy for the job. We are so grateful for the work he did and will recommend him to anyone!

What legal counsel should be.

Joeseph Megale represented me in a traffic/criminal case. He was knowledgeable, informative, sensitive, and most important; likable to myself and to the judge overseeing my case. I walked away with just a small fine. Joe did a magnificent job.

Superstar Lawyer Saves The Day

A few months back, I was slapped with multiple moving violations at once. I found myself facing penalties of more than $1000 and nearly double-digit points on my license. I paid Joe the retainer, and he worked his magic. I got off with no points, and a couple hundred in fees. Half of the violations w...ere discarded outright while the other half were chalked up to minor non-moving violations. He saved me massive amounts of anguish from otherwise sky-high insurance premiums, and reduced the mountain of tickets to a relatively small fee.

Would recommend to anybody!

Joe Megale went above and beyond my expectations. I originally was arrested with a B-Felony, fast forward six months and I wound up taking a very generous plea bargain consisting of 40 hours community service and an A-misdemeanor. No jail time or probation. Mr. Megale was always responsive and carefu...l to explain any questions I had.
