Divorce

Joy, she’s my attorney and ANGEL that was there for me at the worst time of my life, She’s compassionate, very knowledgeable of the Laws and most of all no financial pressure. She was always available via phone, email or office visit to listen to my concerns and give great advise and recommendations.... Needless to say, a very happy outcome in my divorce proceedings….. She’s the BEST!

Permanent Residency

Anyone dealing with any type of Immigration issue knows how stressful it can be. Joy has helped both my husband and I throughout our entire process so far. With her help, my husband and I both have legal status here. Joy has been there to answer any question or concern we've had for the last 8-9 yrs.... If you are looking for someone that doesn't just see a client, but sees you as a person. She puts in the work to get you the answers you need. She's trustworthy and very reliable. Joy is certainly worth all 5 stars! We were incredibly fortunate to find her.

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.
