Mr. Good is the BEST

Back in 2018 I was involved in an accident and was initially charged with a DUI. I reached out to Mr. Good and hired him to be my legal counsel. Mr. Good was able to work with the officer in charge and the DA to get my charge lowered to Reckless Driving. The stress of having to attend court or work t...his out on my own was removed and I was able to focus on my life and was kept updated on the case as it progressed. Any time I had a question or concern Mr. Good was quick to respond and let me know where the case stood. I was able to work with Joe on making payments and felt that I was being taken care of. Thank you Joe for all your hard work!!! Mr. Good is the BEST!!!!

Didn't even go to Court...

Joseph and his partner Summer were fantastic they answered all my phone calls and all my legal questions. The price was very reasonable and the case never ended up going to court. They were able to solve my legal problems before it got that far. I highly recommended them for any legal issues you may ...have.

Joe is Good!

Joe did an excellent job representing me with my MIP. I was desperately seeking an attorney, and as soon as I spoke to Joe, I trusted him and knew he would be the best choice. While all odds are usually against you in this type of case, he managed to get my entire case dropped, which saved me almost ...$1000. Joe is very responsive and made it an easy and relaxed process. He patiently explained everything to me step by step. He is affordable whilst knowledgeable and professional. I would definitely recommend Joe!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
