Saved my Career

I have known Joe for many years. He is a person of the highest integrity. As a professional, he is committed, hard working, efficient and a great communicator. Simply put, I was falsely accused of 'assault' of a supervisor and if it wasn't for Mr. Joe Shoemaker, my career as a middle school teacher... in Florida would have summarily ended. The Department of Education was prepared to revoke my certification without even being charged with anything at the local level. It was after some effort on our parts and a telephone conference call, the DOE decided against any future action. In fact, the comment made was, "I am so glad we had this conversation. We were prepared to move forward." God Bless Joe Shoemaker. I will NEVER be able to repay him for what he did for me. Although it was a small effort for him, it was ENORMOUS for me. Words cannot express my gratitude and appreciation. Perhaps this review can help in some way. If you need help, he is the person to go to.

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.
