Great Person to represent you!

Joe and his staff are absolutely amazing. I went through a nightmare case and sadly hired him late in the game but he still put in all the effort he could to get me a good outcome even though he was late to the game. Can i also just point out that when i was crying and having a panic attack after one... of the hearings he calmed me down and let me cry on his shoulders! he didnt have to stay late he didn't have to talk through things and make me laugh but he did! He and his staff were always there to answer my questions and work with me even down to the bill. I will always go to him and recommend him in the future if i ever need help again! let's hope i don't but if i do its him ill choose. Thank you Joe for everything!

Excellent family lawyer

Mr. Borsberry and his team, particularly Stacy Seaman, have been amazing to work with. For the first time in several years, I feel like our issues have been heard and taken seriously. They have been professional and respectful throughout the entire process and always reply to emails in a timely manne...r.

Effective and Sincere Legal Counsel

I have had the opportunity to use Joseph Borsberry and his practice 3 times over 15 years. He is highly competent in all areas of the law. He is quick to handle all legal issues immediately and works every possible angle to accomplish your best possible outcome. Highly Recommended. Mike N. Peori...a IL

I'm Satisfied with Outcome

Borsberry Law is the 4th law firm I've hired in my life. This is the first and only positive experience I've had with hiring attorney's. #1 their fees are extremely fair and I've never felt like I was nickel and dimed. #2 Joe Borsberry is cordial yet direct and doesn't promise unreasonable or unattai...nable outcomes. #3 The staff is responsive and friendly. #4 Everyone actually did what they said they would do, they showed up on time and prepared, and I am satisfied with the outcome.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
