An excellent and well-recommended attorney
I am still grateful to Mario and his law partner John for their assistance in my divorce case. It didn't make a great deal of difference in the end, and I wish that I had just agreed the initial petition and saved myself the heartache, but, this was't really their fault. The counsel in opposition wa...

Professional and Compassionate
My divorce was not an easy one. (Is it ever?) Mario and John and the entire staff were extraordinarily professional and kind during the entire process. Even after the divorce was final, several other issues emerged, and the firm continued to provide sane and cogent advice.

Thank you Mr. Joseph!
Thank you for all of your assistance during a most difficult time. Your countless hours spent reviewing and clarifying even the most mundane of matters made the experience that much easier to bear. I knew what I was to expect at every juncture, and nothing was surprising. Your vast knowledge of ma...

A man of integrity!
Mario Alex Joseph goes above and beyond of what is expected of an attorney! An intelligent shark in the courtroom with a caring heart of gold to his clients! Mario always made himself available throughout my lengthy divorce trial. Incredible dedication! He takes his cases very seriously and was very ...
"I endorse Mario Alex Joseph. His reputation in the field is impeccable and I have seen in action and I am impressed by his work ethic and professionalism."
"Mario was opposing counsel on a contested divorce which quickly became a learning experience for both of us. Admittedly, I was a little turned off from Mario when we began communicating, as it was limited to e-mail and prior to any face-to-face introduction. However, my opinion quickly changed after our first court appearance and as the case progressed. It became clear to both of us that Mario's client was making every effort to undermine the progress that he and I were making together to settle this contested divorce. Mario managed an extraordinarily difficult client with professionalism and competence, and to be quite frank, he did a better job representing his client than I ever would have been able to. It is a shame that his client viewed it differently, because few lawyers would have been able to accomplish the same job as Mario. To any future clients who are considering whether to go pro-se or hire Mario, you would be foolish to go with any option over hiring Mario."
"I have known Mario for a number of years. He is an excellent and tenacious litigator who works tirelessly to advocate for his clients. I recommend him highly in all of his areas of practice including, but not limited to criminal defense, divorce and separation, and civil litigation."
"Attorney Mario Joseph is a diligent and dedicated attorney with extensive knowledge in family law. His compassion for his clients is astonishing. I highly recommend him to anyone needing legal representation."
