Lack of Communication, Do Research

I originally inquired with Mr. Joseph "Joey" Turner in September 2020 on a DUI case that has been pending since January 2019. During the initial consultation, it was indicated to Joey that resolving the case as quickly as possible was of grave concern due to my federal and military employment. Joey s...tated that the case should be resolved by the end of the year (2020) in which he was already in discussions with the Solicitor and was readily agreeable to the resolution. A year later, having since been discharged and denied four transfer and promotions my case is still pending. Recent contact with the Solicitors office suggests that Joey has not made contact with their office regarding my case. Unfortunately, the only time I can get Joey to return a call is when I send a certified letter to him, which I have done twice already. He will then set new deadlines and I do not hear from him again. I read the reviews of his prior communication issues/concerns and after speaking with Joey, he was prompt, courteous and responsive until I tendered my payment in full to him. I also see this to be common report from his peers and other reviewers/clients Please folks, do your research prior to hiring Mr. Turner.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
