Excellent Experience!

During my immigration case journey with Mr. Joseph Jacob, I have experienced an excellent service and professional legal advises! He was always there whenever I contacted him with so much knowledge about various options and possibilities, until the very last moment landing in the USA. I found him t...o be very polite, precised, helpful, educated, and experienced in my case which saved me a lot of time! I definitely recommend Mr. Jacob to everyone and I'm sure that you will be grateful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
