Highly Recommended - Joel Hodes

My organization has worked with Mr. Hodes on a range of issues related to health care services delivery, insurance and regulation as well as large-scale business transactions, corporate reorganizations and mergers. As our organization has changed and grown over the years we have called on Mr. Hodes... to assist us with any number of complex organizational and business issues. He is insightful and an excellent strategic thinker. Overall Mr. Hodes is an excellent attorney, whom I would recommend most highly.

An attorney with a mark of excellence

Joel represented our company during a difficult acquisition. His knowledge in the healthcare field assisted the CEO to make sound decisions during the process. He exhibited patience when interacting with persons who had difficulty understanding the legal ramifications associated with the acquisition.... He responded expeditiously to the numerous request for information. Joel is a knowledgeable , professional, ethical, and respectable attorney who our company would not hesitate to recommend.
