A lawyer that cares!

I wasnt able to hire Joseph Jacobs due to being in different states unfortunately. But in the first case i received a underage and joe helped me considerably through it! The court was trying to hammer me and joseph helped me to only receive what was fair being it was juvenile there was not much he co...uld do as the judge was very strict seeing me in his court room. The 2nd case i was trying to help a friend get away from a drug problem and paraphanolia had been left in my car unkowingly and wrongfully charged with a felony! My lawyer i hired was very poor not handling my case well after the pretrial i was looking at 8-10 months prison! I than called Joseph and asked him for his advice yet again being in another state he couldnt appoint me but he gave me the best advice to get me the help i needed to do my lawyers job for him! I appreciate Joseph Jacobs and he has my highest respects i highly recommend him!!! Thank you Joseph Aaron Hatfield

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.
