Divorce attorney

Joe Napoli is a consummate professional, yet also very personable and respectful and accommodates any special needs his clients may have. I have severe PTSD with Anxiety and Depression and Joe was kind enough and empathetic enough to learn about my disease and adapt to my special needs, as a client. ...Additionally, Joe has an intimate knowledge of the applicable laws and statutes and, many times, can quote them verbatim. He is also very savvy in keeping up with applicable caselaw and precedents. Joe is not your typical M-F 9-5 attorney. Frequently, he would return my calls or emails at night and on weekends. That is very rare in an attorney! I went through two previous attorneys before I found my perfect fit with Joe. Unlike my previous attorneys, Joe returned my calls or emails, promptly. He took the time to ensure that I understood every step of the process and that my best interests were always being protected. Joe also has an outstanding support staff, who are equally responsive and eager to ensure your peace of mind. I would highly recommend Joe to anybody and everybody! I did exceedingly well in terms of the settlement of my estate. I thank Joe for providing me the ability and means to start my life over.

Excellent Family Attorney

Divorce isn’t easy and I am so glad I had Joe in my corner. He and his team helped me through a difficult point in my life with care and dignity. Joe is knowledgeable about the law, efficient in following through and so patient when explaining the process as well as the paperwork. I trusted Joe to lo...ok out for my boys and me and he did not disappoint.

Look no further!

When looking for an attorney, look no further. I had a divorce from hell which I had filed over two years ago and went through four attorneys until I stumbled across Joe. Joe is the consummate professional attorney, who really does care about his client’s best interest. Unlike my previous attorneys,... I was able to call Joe on his cell phone if I had any urgent questions or concerns. Joe is knowledgeable, well spoken, takes command of the court room, yet is able to handle delicate situations with “kid- gloves” in order to achieve the best outcome for his clients.

Extraordinary

My experience with Joe was, by far, the best. I couldn't have been represented by anyone better. Joe helped to get a criminal case involving my child dismissed due to lack of evidence and hearsay. With never having been in any type of serious legal situation, Joe was very receptive, communicative, an...d encouraging. He was patient and consoling during my time of need. Very professional, diligent and phenomenal at what he does. Joe is great when examining and deciphering necessary information that is relevant or irrelevant to your case. Please look no further, if you want someone to handle your case in a timely, professional and meticulous manner, Joe is your guy. I am forever grateful. Thank you so much Joe, may your future be bright and full of blessings!

The best of the best!

Everyone deserves an attorney like Joe. I didn't think it was possible to find such a efficient, well educated and caring lawyer who could handle my ex's impulsive behavior, 10 minutes into our initial phone consultation and I knew he was the perfect choice for me and my children. Joe was very inform...ative, attentive and acted on my situation immediately. Always confident and positive but didn't hold back in the courtroom. This is exactly what I needed given my situation, so much had happened and was continuing to happen. I was starting this new life as a single mom with no car, who shared a bunk bed with her 2 small toddlers and I was terrified. I felt like a anxious and unorganized hot mess bound to annoy and confuse her own lawyer, but no, not Joe! He was always so quick to respond and never missed a beat! Joe went above and beyond any expectations I had for a divorce attorney, he is very personable and always had mine and my kid's best interest in mind. He made sure I understood everything and was very good at pointing out what was worth a fight and when to settle. I walked away with much more than I had expected and I'm very happy with the outcome, my ex on the other hand... not so much! Joe helped me through the most difficult time in my life and I will forever be grateful for his hard work and professionalism. I feel I should be getting a separate bill for the counseling and therapy sessions he also provided because that's the type of attorney he is, a grade A shark!
