Great Injury Lawyer

Mr. Weeks was a true professional. He made me feel like my issue was important, and followed through to make sure I was taken care of. Not only monetarily, but overall. I really feel like Mr. Weeks is a friend after dealing with him, and his handling of me and my family.

Great Attorney and Very Professional

Joseph Weeks and his firm have shown a high level of professionalism in dealing with my case. When I call his firm I talk directly with a live person, and not an automated attendant asking me to press numbers to speak to someone. I have on several occasions stopped by his office just to drop off re...quested documents and he has taken time to talk to me and let me know what the latest is with my case. Everyone at his office that I have worked with or spoken to has always been friendly and willing to answer any questions I may have. From the onset of my case, Joseph has been upfront about what to expect and what actions the other party can take. He has guided me through the litigation process and kept me informed of what is going on. Joseph is confident and knowledgeable in preparing documents and dealing with the other party. I will receive a copy of motions, responses and other documents within a few days of receiving them or filing them with the court. He has set a high standard in what to expect when working with an attorney.
