Joseph A. Doerr

I was fortunate to have attorney Joseph A. Doerr represent me regarding a landlord tenant matter. From day one, he listened, was prompt in his communications with me, honest, well versed in landlord tenant law, and reasonable with his fees. I felt as though he 100% went to work for me as my advocate,... and took time to explain any questions and concerns I may have had along the way. Excellent attorney client communication and we had a favorable and efficient outcome. If you are looking for a personalized, timely, efficient, accurate, and knowledgeable attorney to represent you with a landlord tenant issue, I would highly recommend Joe.

Joe helped me come to a swift resolution in a landlord-tenant matter that I faced during a really stressful and uncertain time in my life. Though the cards were stacked against me, he treated me with respect and showed a genuine desire to advance my position and help me obtain a favorable outcome. ... Joe was quick to review my file and to communicate a strategy and plan for moving forward. He updated me frequently and was prompt to respond to my questions and messages. Joe was highly knowledgeable on the applicable law in Michigan. He advised opposing counsel of a case that was directly on point, and in my favor, and helped me to gain some leverage in difficult settlement negotiations. He was also thorough. Thanks to Joe’s attention to detail, he uncovered a fact buried in my records that ultimately saved me thousands of dollars. He fought for me against unreasonable and unscrupulous counsel, while maintaining respect and decorum. He went to bat for me without turning my case into a circus or unnecessarily driving up legal fees. Even when the case was over, he was diligent and thoughtful in his follow-up. If you are looking for a top-notch, experienced attorney who will handle your case personally from start to finish, I highly recommend Joe. In my experience, it has been nearly impossible to find a good attorney who you actually like as a person and who treats you like you are more than the sum of your fees. I found this in Joe, and I am so thankful.

Joe came highly recommended to me to handle a dispute arising out of the right to Airbnb a rental property. He quickly ascertained the facts of the case, made a plan (and even some backups!), and swiftly and adeptly went to the business of shutting down the dispute. Not only did he help me win the ca...se (against a notorious slumlord under federal investigation), he also graciously negotiated a very unexpected and favorable settlement for me. This was an extremely stressful dispute and I was not always my best self, and Joe took everything in stride. He reassured me every step of the way, outmaneuvering and outlawyering the other side in every interaction. His fees were exceedingly fair as well. Joe has my wholehearted recommendation. He's quickly establishing himself an expert in the homesharing economy and his expertise and professionalism in this space are simply unparalleled. Should the need arise, I'd hire him again in a second and think you should jump at the chance too!

I hired Mr Doerr to manage a potentially serious landlord-tenant situation (I was the landlord - tenant was aggressive, threatening and trying to work every angle of the system). Joe took on the case at a very reasonable retainer and executed on everything we discussed. His responses were timely, he...lpful and he always had his eye on the solution. The tenant was so bold as to engage Joe in his mad rants and Joe held sway and diffused the situation. If you want an accessible, reasonable attorney to advocate for you, Mr Doerr is the right guy.

Mr. Doerr was extremely helpful in our case against the former tenants of my rental home. After they vacated the property later than agreed, damaged the home, and violated part of the lease, Mr. Doerr helped us reach a settlement in our favor. He kept us apprised of every step of the lawsuit, and w...as extremely professional and timely. He advised us on the best next-steps, and gave us fair expectations throughout. I would highly recommend him.
