Posted by Karen | June 20, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Child custody case

I hired Attorney Nash as legal council for my custody case involving my grandchildren. I was looking to provide stability and the care my grandchildren needed that their parents could not provide. My case involved the parents living out of state and my having guardianship of two of my grandchildren,... and an initial custody order from another county on the third child. Joe was always courteous, knowledgeable, thorough, and took the time to answer my questions from the initial consult to end of my case. Joe kept me abreast of what was happening with each step of my case. I never felt rushed or as though I was bothering him. Joe truly cared about me and the children he was representing. While my initial case was being handled, a second case came about when my daughter returned to Pennsylvania with the fourth child, and Joe was very responsive to my emails and phone calls handling this new matter of an emergency custody case quickly placing this matter before the courts to protect the child. Subsequently, we were awarded full custody of all four children. His fees are fair and his expertise is well worth what I paid and more. Joe takes the time to explain your case so that you understand what will/could happen. He is very professional but always down to earth. I know Joe has many clients, but when you speak with him or he is representing you, you feel as if you are the only client. I would most definitely hire Joe again and I highly recommend him.

Deed transfer

I contacted Mr. Nash to get a new Deed recorded at the courthouse. Mr. Nash got this done in a timely manly, much faster than I anticipated. Joe is very knowledgeable and great to work with. I will use Mr. Nash in the future and highly recommend him to anyone.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
