Fierce Advocate

Joe Stafford is hands down the best attorney I have ever hired, or heard of. Unfortunately I have had need to hire several attorneys for various reasons over the last 13 years. Joe Stafford has been the best and last one I will ever hire. He is honest, hard working and does what he says. Joe Stafford... also gets results. Joe Stafford knows the law and will fight for you.

Knowledgeable and Attentive

Mr. Stafford and his entire staff were very knowledgeable and extremely attentive to all of my needs. My case was extensively complicated and my outcome was extremely successful. I would highly recommend Stafford Law Company to anyone.

Joseph Stafford is the smartest guy in the room

After two years of mishandling by other attorneys, my divorce proceedings were a complete mess. Joe agreed to take over my case and settled favorably for my children and I within 5 months. He is brilliant and fearless. He is a results-based attorney who doesn't waste time with lengthy emails or ph...one conversations. Let him do his job- he's truly great at it.

Chief Program Officer

The best domestic attorney in the United States, period. Fights for what's in the child's best interest. I cannot thank him enough.

Spot on referral.

I hired Joe after he was recommended to me by a close friend, who is also a Cleveland attorney. He said Joe was the best Family Law attorney in Cleveland and he was 100% correct. Joe is extremely intelligent period. He knows the law. Joe gave wonderful guidance through a difficult process. He made su...re the litigation was timely and efficient despite opposing councils attempts to lengthen it. Joe came highly recommended to me and I am greatful for that recommendation, it was spot on.
