Nathan Willner, Debt collection Attorney on Apr 25, 2014
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I strongly endorse this lawyer. JoAnn is a leader in the creditors' rights industry. As a long time member of NARCA and current president, Joann is highly experienced in all facets of debt collection and the FDCPA. She possesses keen legal acumen and is a top notch litigator. JoAnn is one of the top attorneys in her practice areas and obtains fantastic results for her clients.
Joseph Mullaney, Debt collection Attorney on Feb 27, 2009
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I opposed JoAnn Needleman on several occasions in FDCPA litigation in the Eastern and Middle District Courts for Pennsylvania. I found Ms. Needleman to be fair, rationale, and pleasant to work with in resolving litigation disputes. I recommend her to debt collection agencies in need of FDCPA defense.
