No stress and always impressed

Of course when it comes to any legal matters there is a natural concern of what if things that we worried about but Joe takes that from the consultation and you can see him thinking on how he is going to approach what the concern of the legal matter is and before you know it he's at work it is his fi...eld of Art like an artist he chips away until he's got his sculpture complete which turns out to usually be the results that you were looking for you can only Envision what you would like to see happen but he takes that it seems to make it a reality I believe he is incredible attorney that is devoted to what he does and I am very grateful and thankful he was able to represent me for my legal matters

Best Defense Attorney in Area

Contacted several attorneys and Joe Nahas was the only one who after I explained what happened told me it was an illegal search and would get it dropped. He straight forward ,explained my options and did exactly what he said he would do. Nothing but respect for him and found my guy if I ever need one... again. Don’t waste your time with anyone else.

He did the impossible

Joe managed to save my son's ARD after he was scheduled for revocation. Everyone, including our family, thought revocation was inevitable. Joe met with us, explained his game plan, and then went to work. He went above and beyond, saved the ARD, and was very straightforward all along the way. J...oe answered questions, communicated very effectively, and in short, we owe him a great deal. Our entire family is in his debt.

Very professional and honest

Mr. Nahas is the lawyer that you want to represent you, I can tell you this now. In 2019, my life was in a downward spiral and I got 2 DUI’s in less then a year and thought for sure that I was going to jail. I heard of how professional that Joe was but never had him as an attorney, I brought all m...y paperwork to Joe and he was brutally honest right from the start, he had told me how I was looking at jail time and how I needed to straighten my life out in order to stay out of jail, after talking to him I admitted myself to an inpatient rehab and I haven’t looked back. After I got out of rehab, I had my hearings and Joe and his paralegal, Shirley, were on the ball with everything and I mean everything. Joe is a very confident lawyer and makes you feel just as confident when he represents you, I had both of my hearings in the last two months and I am proud to say that because of Joe, I am sober for over 9 months and get to stay at home and raise my daughter as opposed to being in jail. I see Joe from time to time at church and he is just as nice. Great lawyer and great man.

Excellent defense attorney!!!

My sons arrest was 5/24/2019 – Today, 6/29/2020 I could have fell to my knees after Attorney Nahas called with an update ….. What can I say – I read reviews and had a consult with Attorney Nahas. Prior to that consult, his secretary – Shirley spent so much time on the telephone with me explaining eve...ry aspect my son’s case that could’ve gone wrong. My son was being charged with his 3rd DUI and also had several additional charges that we never thought would be dismissed. He was also looking at jail time and on top of that he was expecting his first child with his girlfriend. Of course, being human, I thought that possibly Attorney Nahas may have been potentially promising me the world (as well as informing me of the negative outcome) just to obtain my business and retainers fee. Speaking with him at our consult he really impressed us with his knowledge and the different avenues we can take and the worst outcome we may expect. He even sternly told my son, who did not have a haircut forever, NOT to show up looking like he was or he wouldn’t represent him. I was very impressed. We obtained his representation and the legal process began. At out trial hearing the police office that pulled my son over was present. Attorney Nahas left us SPEECHLESS with his words, his direction that he was taking his defense in and so many holes that he found in the whole investigation of my sons case during his cross examination with the police officer. We left that hearing with some hope, however, to continue to go to trial it would’ve been another $5000-$7000. 13-months later, I receive a call from Attorney Nahas that HE BEAT EVERY CHARGE for my son (except one that attached a $100 fine!) …. He will only be charged with a summary offence… His talent, knowledge and perseverance to our case was worth EVERY CENT I spent – my first impression was definitely the right one and all I can say if you need a good defense lawyer and you need to have representation that counts on your LIFE – you seriously need to obtain his services. You will regret your decision if you do not --- he is truly a miracle worker. And someone who doesn’t believe in reviews like myself has learned a lesson. Attorney Nahas’s reviews were excellent and what he did for us just adds triple fold to his worth! A million thank you’s will never, never be enough. He saved my sons life – and for that I will always be grateful.
