Kyle Weidemann

Joe Veenstra helped settle a 9.7K lawsuit against me for $1,200. A VERY substantial difference. He also voluntarily gave me plenty of useful advice for my business. I would certainly recommend his service.

Addressed issue in a car accident my daughter had

Joe was excellent to work with . Was very prompt in replying to all of my e-mails. He stated what was viable and what wasn't. Offered straight answers and laid out a clear path we would be following. VERY positive end result!!!

LandLord Issue

I cannot thank Mr. Veenstra enough the for assistance he provided in getting my brother's property from the landlord after my brother passed away. Without his help we would have received nothing from the landlord.

Brilliant!

Joe was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and straightforward with the case. Would absolutely hire again .

Posted by Dan | April 18, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Honest Lawyer.

He actually did what he said and actually calls you back. Would recommend. He took over case from a worthless lawyer and did a professional job.

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.
