Great attorney

Talk about patience and knowledge, Joe has them! He was great through out my long dragging divorce process. Always there when I needed an answer or advice. Highly recommended!!!

Best Lawyer I ever hired!!!

I hired Joe when I was going through a nasty custody battle with my child's father. Joe assured me that he had things handled and that everything would work out in the best interested of the child. Not only do my ex and I co-parent amazing ( mainly because of Joe) but he took all the stress out of a... situation that could have been chaotic. I would recommend Joe to anyone! He is extremely attentive and well spoken. He always came to court prepared and ready to go. Most importantly he is ALWAYS honest and forthcoming with his clients.

The best

I hired Mr. Costello 60 days ago for my divorce process and I am done! He is kind and understanding. He was always available to answer my question and address my concerns. Highly recommend.

He gets it done!

My divorce process started in Summer of last year with a different attorney. I felt as if this attorney dragged my case on and on and belittled my feelings. My desire and need to protect my children and myself increased and I was compelled to hire legal counsel that was a better fit for what I needed... and this is where Mr. Joseph Costello stepped in. He understood the urgency to close this chapter of my life. He pushed my case forward and closed it all around one month of hiring him. He took all my concerns into account and validated all the negative and positive feelings that comes with Divorce. His advise were practical and useful. The outcome of my divorce was better than I had anticipated all thanks to him. I would recommend him a million time over.

Don't think I could have had a better Lawyer

Joe came highly recommended through a friend of my sister. I had several recommendations but he was the one that stood out and even at our initial conversation on the phone something clicked and I felt totally at ease. He was always very upfront and honest about what to expect. He was always prepar...ed and this was reflected in the Mediation process. I had heard horror stories of similar cases but to my surprise this was not my case. I was in disbelief of the outcome and I feel blessed that he was in my corner. Great Attorney and I would recommend him in a heartbeat...you will not be disappointed.
