Gets the job done

Joe worked with me on my divorce settlement. Very excellent experience! If you need a straight shooter to go to bat for you, Joe is the right guy. Fair and conscientious with time and fees.

Helped me in a time of need...

I was going thru a divorce and was struggling deeply. I had paid a lawyer for help with my divorce and had that lawyer take my money and run. I was in a deep hole at this point. Joseph Alvarez was such a blessing to find. He contacted me after I found his law firm and made my life so much easier. He ...said and I quote "I want you to live life without worry of this divorce, you're in good hands." He could not have been more right, he made my divorce, which seemed like an absolute nightmare, seem like it was nothing to worry about at all. He took care of everything and made the process so simple, easy, and care free. Thank you so much Joseph Alvarez! If you're looking for a divorce lawyer, look no further and hire Joseph Alan Alvarez!

Highly Recommend

I highly recommend Joseph Alvarez of Zisser Law. I’ve worked with several family law attorneys prior and Joseph Alvarez went above and beyond. I’m so grateful to Joseph for how he handled my case and truly looked out and fought for what was best for my child and myself. I had complete confidence an...d could always count on Joseph to help me take the emotion out and provide the best guidance. He is extremely attentive and timely with responses and always well prepared. He is hard working, highly knowledgeable, and I was impressed with his understanding and quick assessment of critical facts and information that impacted the case and his swift action and results. He was quick to react and move a case that was dragging out needlessly with my former counsel and helped move it toward resolution, minimizing both an incredible emotional and financial toll to my family. And for that I am the most grateful to Joseph. His entire support staff was always helpful and efficient as well.

Deepest thanks

Now that it is completed I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking Mark's case Pro-bono as that was a Godsend for him. I know you will be blessed many times over for your actions. Thank you again! Mark's mom (JoAnn Thompson).

Couldnt have been any better

Joseph has been a savior for my divorce and dealing with my extremely difficult and unstable ex-wife. I have been through a few lawyers and was not getting the assistance I needed. That ended when I was recommended to visit the Zisser law firm as I knew that was one of the top firms in Jacksonville f...or family law. His best quality is what another lawyers struggle with... Communication. I understand that lawyers are busy but the uncertainty of knowing what is going on is important and Joseph seems to understand that. He always had the best interest of my child and is very knowledgeable about the process. Also, he is equipped with some of the best resources in the business working with the Zisser law firm. Cost is reasonable and well worth it. I highly recommend Joseph Alvarez.
