This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.
| Consulted Attorney
Wonderful lawyer, very personable, I would call him again if I needed a lawyer.
I am very happy with what Joey did for me. He spent several hours helping me with FMLA and keeping my job. I did not end up having to go to court to keep it and since he requires payment only if he wins, and I did not have to actually file papers and go to court he did not charge me anything. Several hours of help, A LOT of good information, I kept my job and he did not bill me at all. If I need a lawyer again, he will be my first call and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone else that needs a lawyer.
