Very bad

Extremely incompetent. Was not invested in my case. Did not communicate any strategy that would help my case. Caved to the demands of the opposing side. Frequent mistakes were made.

Negligent

Worst experience of my life. Very incompetent, negligent and prejudical. Did not communicate enough. Pressured me to agree to a settlement. Essentially destroyed my life

Josie is awesome!

It was a pleasure having Josie as my attorney for two years. I have never hired a lawyer for anything and this was my very first time and for a very serious cause. Not only was I nervous about the whole situation, I was also very very afraid and was living in fear. The minute Josie was retained she g...ave me a call and explained everything to me in detail and told me what to expect. Josie was super nice on the phone and made me feel comfortable about the whole situation. Throughout the case, Josie always explained things in detail and never sugar coated anything. It was not all “business” to her. It was more personal and she really cared about me and the case. This made me feel so secure! Thanks to Josie and her strong personality justice has been served in my case. Her dedication, hard work and paying attention to detail made this all possible. I cannot thank her enough. She is amazing! Thank you once again!

An attorney you can count on!

Josie is a fantastic attorney from start to finish! She understands the most efficient way to tackle a difficult case, and ultimately helped me seek justice for a non paying ex spouse. I’m keeping Josie on my payroll for all family/divorce matters.
