What makes me unique as a family lawyer is that I have directly represented children in court who often have come from divorced/separated parents where physical and/or emotional abuse is often present. This has given me insight into how to effectively advise my family law clients in navigating the court system in order to reach their goals and to minimize the emotional damage that often comes with litigation. I have been recognized throughout the state for my passion in protecting children and I offer these experiences to my clients beginning with a FREE consultation.

I've known Joe since I began practicing law in Berks County in 2005. I've worked alongside him defending Juveniles accused of delinquent acts and I've seen him advocate for his divorce and custody clients. I can say without hesitation that if you hire Joe you will have a highly skilled and passionate attorney on your side. Joe has a well-earned reputation in the community for zealous and ethical advocacy. I look forward to continuing to refer matters to him when our office has a conflict.
