Smart Attorney
Joe Marvin was up front with me in a custody battle. He did not make any promises but fought very hard for me. The judge ruled in my favor.

Mr. Marvin was my divorce/custody attorney. He did a good job and returned my emails and phone calls in a timely manner. I was happy with his service and his staff was very courteous, as I had a lot of questions. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family.

Saved my life
Joe Marvin. Did very well staying in contact with all parties on all sides if the matter. I've reviewed our case. He could not have done a better job at explaining the law to me, and assisting me through the process. Joe Marvin was my defender. I owe him more than money. I owe him my life

Great Divorce Lawyer

Child Custody
Mr. Marvin is an outstanding family law attorney. He has exceeded my expectations and has always been supportive and understanding. Mr. Marvin is professional, knowledgeable, and ethical. My divorce and child custody case has been complicated and ugly to say the least. My children's best interest has always been first and foremost. He has helped me obtain full physical and legal custody of my children. Mr. Marvin is very responsive, honest, and fair. He really listens to you and guides you in the right direction. I highly recommend him because of his experience, ethics, and integrity.

BEST LAWYER YOU COULD ASK FOR!!!!!
I hired Mr. Marvin in December of 2013 as my attorney. I hired him for my child custody case. I am a single mother who had sole legal and physical custody. My daughters father wanted 50/50 in legal and physical custody. Mr. Marvin went out of his way to represent me and make sure this did not happen. I could not have asked for a better outcome of my case including child support, legal and physical custody results. I was truthfully terrified and after sitting in court with Mr. Marvin I can say that I would be very worried to be on the other side of the bench from him. He fought for what was fair for my daughter and I. He cared about us as individuals on a professional and personal level. Joe Marvin is the only attorney in Anoka county I would ever hire or recommend!

Excellent Service
Mr. Marvin did my divorce for me and was great with all the details. He took the time to explain to me requests from my -soon to be ex - and how he felt they should be handled. It was thorough and I am very happy with the outcome. I would recommend Mr. Marvin to anyone - he was great.

Divorce attorney
Mr. Marvin handled another legal matter for me a few years ago and I was very pleased with how he litigated the matter on my behalf.

Joe Marvin is an amazing attorney!!
Joe Marvin is an amazing attorney!! I hired him to help me with my divorce in October 2012. From the beginning he was professional and explained everything every step of the way. He was quick to respond to all of my concerns and did an amazing job. I would highly recommend him!

Not recommended
I used Joseph a few years ago, and I would not use him again. I have reached out now to him 4 times with one question that has come up regarding my outcome, and he has not responded.

Horrible Lawyer
Joey is a horrible lawyer. Unprepared. His secretary Beverly is a lair and can not complete a coherent sentence. This guy should not be practicing law! Worse than Hunter Biden at law!

I would not hire this guy to get a bowl of food for my dog
Not capable of defending him. himself. He lost me my life and Fortune. He delegated in my last minutes. Nothing good about him. He will take the side of his contemporaries and is a weak attorney. I would not recommend him to anyone.

Couldn't care less about you.
This review reflects my personal opinion, based on my personal experience. Joe Marvin represented me in a custody case a very long time ago (2008-2010). I am now, and I was then, very disappointed across the board. An example would be the final agreement (decree). It was as cookie-cutter as they come, with no attention to detail or personal consideration for what I was hoping to achieve. With a less-than-mediocre decree, I have found myself in perpetual conflict with the other party. This could have been prevented all together, had the paperwork been drawn up to reflect our individual needs at the time. In responding to another less-than-stellar Google review, Mr. Marvins office states "Client satisfaction is our #1 priority and we welcome the opportunity to address and resolve your specific concerns." This couldn't be farther from the truth. In fact, when I called him recently to "address and resolve" my specific concerns, Mr. Marvin was receptive at first, but ironically was not interested in resolving anything. Trust me, going through a custody proceeding is not easy, but having a lawyer that makes things worse, just makes things worse. Choose wisely!
