I recommend Joy!

I met Joy in my networking group several years ago. I instantly liked her. I could relate to her immediately as a single mom. She has a magnetic personality, and I was instantly drawn to her. After some time, I needed help with child support issues. She is true to her word, that she will help re...solve an issue with as little conflict as possible; and in a proficient, professional and efficient way. Throughout the process she treated me with love and understanding. Her knowledge of the law and her methods while handling my case allowed for the best possible outcome. She was prepared and sharp. Thank you Joy, for being there for me. I know I can turn to you with confidence.

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.
