A police stand off ended in a $100 fine.

I had a case where I was involved in a aggravated Assult, Simple Assult, Disorderly Conduct and Harassment and a Police Stand off. I hired attorney Nahas and he took the case. When it came time for the preliminary, it was over before I stepped into the Magistrates office. No only did he have all the ...charges withdrawn except the Harassment which ended up being a simple summery of a $100 fine, he also schooled the arresting officer so much that he put in his resignation. Attorney Nahas takes pride in his work and his clients. He's straight to the point. If you want the best hire the best. Joe Nahas stands second to none. When Metzger Whickersham says they mean business, Joe Nahas is the Business!!! I personally recommend Attorney Nahas for all your legal needs. Thank you again Attorney Nahas. Because of you I still continue to have my freedom!!!!

Parent of Client

My child was involved in a physical altercation after being assaulted at a party. My child was charged with assault F1 charge, a Simple Assault charge and Harassment charge. Finger printed and mug shot processed and that should have NEVER taken place. However, after meeting with Joe Nahas we new he w...as the man we needed and best advocate that would pursue justice in this matter. After hiring Joe as our attorney he thoroughly reviewed all the facts surrounding the entirety of the case and he immediately took action to properly litigate and mediate on behalf of (my child) his clients defense. Joe Nahas and his entire legal team is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and genuine. No civil person ever wishes to be in a criminal defense crisis, but if you or someone you know is involved in a criminal dilemma, I highly recommend Joe Nahas Law. He is worth every dollar of the cost to retain and hire him no matter the charge your facing. He is a NO NONSENSE individual that truly believes in justice and fights for his clients. He said to my child “they have to get through me to get to you and that’s NOT HAPPENING!” He and his entire staff led and guided us throughout this entire ordeal and their reassurance and expertise got us through every moment. The end result was all charges dropped/dismissed and only had to pay a fine. My family and I can’t begin to express how grateful we are for Joe Nahas and his entire legal staff. #BESTCRIMINALDEFENSEATTORNEY

Excellent attorney

Cop had erroneously charged me with Aggravated, Simple Assault, Endangering the Welfare, possession of a weapon of crime, and Disorderly Conduct, all with a deadly weapon. Attorney Nahas left them with their jaws on the floor when he had everything dropped, and had a plea to a non-traffic DC. $300 fi...ne, I was looking at a decade plus. Great lawyer and I highly recommend!

Not enough stars

To start, there aren't enough stars to show my gratitude to Joseph and his staff. To start, he came to see me in the jail to get my side of the story. From there I knew I wanted him to defend me. Going into the office for the first time, we met Shirley. She is Joseph's right hand woman, and a VER...Y valuable part of his team. She made me feel like I was family, and that there was nothing to worry about. She assured me that she and Joseph will fight tooth and nail for me, and she was very sympathetic towards my situation. I can't praise her enough. On to Joseph, he's a pitbull. From minute one, he hunkered down, dug his toes in, and started pressing forward. Fact by fact, video by video, and listening to my side, we built the case. We endured a few set backs up front, which he predicted from prior knowledge of judges. He's a human vaccum of law.... He was very aggressive towards the PSP and the DA's witnesses. When it came to the jury trial, be bestowed upon the jurors all of our truths, and all of their lives. He pinned them down like no other. Thanks to him, we beat 9 charges from attempted murder to harassment. It took 14 months, but we got it done. I'm a free man thanks to the truth, Attorney Nahas, and Shirley. I also had a great support system made up of family and TRUE friends. I'll never get back those 14 mos that a scumbag took from me and my family, but Joseph assured a new start in life. As many thanks that I can muster up go to him. THANK YOU !!!!!!!
