Joe Napoli represented us under such precarious circumstances. Having had such horrendous representation prior to Joe, and having been taken advantage of without representation, Joe had his work cut out for him. He handled our custodial case with great care and attention. What continued to amaze me i...s that no matter how difficult things were or how stressed we were, he had a calming aura in all phases up to and including the trial. He is personable and relatable, charismatic and knowledgeable. These characteristics played a distinct role in his decisive victory today on our behalf. Everyone close to me knows I’ve had a crazy battle, and everyone close to me knows my kids are my world. I trusted my world to Joe, and he surpassed everything I hoped for. I happily encourage you to trust Joe with yours.

The ali of lawyers

I used him to get my kids back. My childs mom woke up oneday and took my kids to another state and wouldnt let me see them. I called him and he met with me immediatley and got me before a judge. Not only did i get my kids back i was given sole custody of them as well. We was very tentitive to my case.... He made me feel as if i was his only client. He answerd everytime i called and also worked after hrs..he is great and honestly the best i have ever seen besides on tv lol. He aslo wasnt money hungry like most lawyers are. His main concern was geting my kids back as if they were his......

Superb Attorney

Mr. Napoli II was an amazing divorce attorney. He was honest from the very start and listened to my needs. He resolved my divorce in a timely manner and I'm thankful for his help. I can say Mr. Napoli II went above and beyond!

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!

Custody Case

Living through a custody case is emotionally challenging. I am grateful that I made the correct choice in hiring Joe. He is well versed in the law, and I appreciated his ability to communicate that knowledge to help me navigate these waters. Great adviser to make decisions when negotiating, and also... knows when to push a bit harder in the court room. Also thank you to his staff, easy to work with. Very responsive.
