This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Considering the win/loss record, you may be better off going pro se.

A grifter preying on the grievances of NIMBYs, Joe's biggest talent seems to be finding the exact client desperate enough to hire him enough times in order to sustain a full time career. After a brief consultation, and then having been solicited via social media to crowd source funding for a loca...l land use case, I conducted some basic research. Even a cursory search shows his cases re-use the same poor arguments time and time again and get dismissed with alarming regularity. Reusing the same arguments in case after case does nothing for expediency, however, as Joe will make sure to draw the case out for as long as humanly possible. A recent case for a Tax Increment district took 4 years just to get to the court of appeals. However, in Wisconsin's legal system, courts do not award a "moral victory" if one "goes the distance" ala Rocky Balboa.

Good, thorough attorney

I have used Joe on two cases, one very complex, and Joe handled them very well. One was a loss and one was a win, so the ultimate outcome is not what I am rating Joe on --- I am rating on thoroughness, attentiveness, knowledge, and judgment.

comments on representation

Joe Cincotta represented us on civil matter. His fees were low, but he missed a court date. The judge was not happy and I believe it affected our case.
