Exceptional Attorney With A Big Heart!

I highly recommend Joseph Nascimento. Joe sat down with us in our home and patiently explained everything in detail about our case. He was always available when we had questions or concerns. He responded quickly to all emails, text messages, and phone calls. His diligence, integrity, honesty, and... compassion provided so much comfort during this very stressful time in our lives. I guarantee once you work with Joe, you will look no further. Joe is an exceptionally warm-hearted Attorney who works hard for his clients. We are forever grateful to him.

Five starts is not enough for Mr. Joseph Nascimento!

I cannot begin to say how much I appreciate and trust Mr. Joseph Nascimento. I have never written a review for anybody but I feel compelled because He essentially saved my life. There were criminal charges filled against me. Mr. Nascimento represented and defended against accusations that had the pot...ential to ruin my life. He was able to get the court to dismiss charges without fines and penalties!!! Mr. Joseph put my mind at ease during such a difficult time! I am forever grateful for the results of my case! I found Mr.Joseph Nascimento very throughout and honest. He was professional, available for my questions, very knowledgeable about my situation and extremely confident in court. Joseph Nascimento is the best of the best! And I would have no hesitation to recommend him to friends!

Forceful Federal Litigator

When looking for a Miami federal white collar defense attorney to assist my firm on a big white collar defense case, a friend recommended Joe Nasciemento. What can I say? Joe was fantastic! He is extremely compassionate and sincere about his clients, he is a forceful courtroom litigator, and he is ab...le to find compelling solutions to difficult problems. Anyone who is in need of a competent, highly respected defense attorney in South Florida should give Joe a call. I highly recommend Joe Nasciemento!

An angel in disguise!!

It is with a thankful and sincere heart, and with clarity of mind, that I write this review on Mr. Joseph Nascimento. I met Mr. Nascimento when I was going though a desperate time and my legal situation seemed bleak. I had been mistreated,duped, and robbed by an individual who calls himself an atto...rney. Leaving me in a desperate, moneyless, and doomed situation which brought about a great mistrust and the most negative feelings for anyone who practice law. Mr. Nascimento found out about my plight and still agreed to represent me. Within 24 hours, Mr. Nascimento provided more information on my case than the aforementioned individual did in one year of having the case. Mr. Nascimento's professionalism, efficiency, and great people skills gave me a renewed hope for my case and for the many honest professionals in the practice of the law. Mr. Nascimento's efforts and dedication brought about the best possible outcome for my case. In spite of battling a Criminal Justice System, which is not necessarily always just. He succeeded in bringing about triumph on a situation that seemed lost. It has been a pleasure to have met Mr. Joseph Nascimento, both professionally and as a well rounded human being. Professionally, I find Mr. Nascimento to be well spoken, honest, efficient, candid, thoughtful, well prepared, and an excellent strategist. Knowledgeable of the law and its current changes. Known and respected inside the court room and the Judicial body. I would personally, and without any hesitation, recommend Mr. Joseph Nascimento to anyone, especially any family or friends needing legal representation.
