Thanks Joe!

Joe recently represented us in a dispute which was settled quickly and to our satisfaction. He and his staff were responsive and timely. They communicated with us, clearly outlining our options and next steps. He was professional and courteous. We had several appearances and different steps that need...ed to be taken to rectify our situation. Joe was also up front and clear about the billing and payment, which was extremely helpful, as we had never needed representation like this before. I recommend him and his staff highly. They will resolve your problem quickly - and win for you!

Highly recommend

Joe Borsberry and his staff are awesome. He defended us in a bogus OP and we WON. He is very professional and a man of faith. He always put at ease when we would get anxious. I highly recommend him. AW

Very Professional

Joe and his staff were very professional, answered all of my questions, and made sure I was well informed. My case had the best outcome possible without taking it to trial. I would highly recommend him.

Great Attorney

The whole office did a great job. Joe was sensitive to my needs. He listened to what I said and followed through with a favorable judgment. Barbara was very nice to work with. They made a not so great situation a bit easier to deal with. From billing to emails and communication. This is the pla...ce!!

Third Custody Case

Since my divorce back in 2010 I’ve been in 3 custody battles with my daughters father, this last one I hired Joeseph Borsberry to take my case. It was a long process but not due to Mr Borsberry but due to my ex husband and his attorney. Mr Borsberry is located an hour away from the town we lived in, ...he did everything in his power to work with us to save money on traveling fees, we were able to do most of our meetings via phone, during this process we only had to go to the court house 2 times and kept most of it very civil. He and his staff kept me up to date regularly through email and phone calls it made it so much easier as I couldn’t drive due to a health condition. He and his staff were very courteous and were always prompt with answering any questions I had. During our depositions with my ex husband and his attorney, it was a pleasure to watch Mr Borsberry work, he was able to get information from my ex husband that no other attorney could in the past, he kept me up to date with the ever changing laws so I knew what was going on and where we stood. I highly recommend Mr Borsberry and his staff, as they were prompt, courteous and very friendly, in the end I’m very pleased with our outcome and has finally brought some peace to our lives. They never made me feel like I was a burden or a hassle they always made me feel like our case was a top priority!
