Success at trial.

Mr. Borsberry and his staff are professional and friendly. They always returned my calls or emails in a timely manner and were very flexible with scheduling. He kindly answered my many questions and put me at ease with his knowledge and experience at court. I feel fortunate to have had Mr. Borsberr...y on my side and definitely recommend his services.

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 attorney

With the help of Borsberry law I was able to win my case. I can’t thank Joseph Borsberry and his staff enough!

Buyer beware!!!

Borsberry Law did a terrible job with my case. They allowed apposing counsel to run circles around them and treated my case like an administrative exercise. During court appearances apposing counsel dominated proceedings and appeared to simply overwhelm the Borsberry Law team. At some court appearanc...es the lawyer from Brosberry Law seemed more concerned about making the local bar association meeting on time (I believe he is the president) than making maximum use of time with the judge! The Borsberry team also worked in a sort of Black box fashion, keeping me in the dark, not adequately preparing me or explaining what the potential outcomes might be/ what they would mean. The lawyer would often print/scan the legal code and share it with me as if I am a lawyer and would be able to interpret what things meant in the larger context of the law on my own. I am not a lawyer. The Borsberry team also showed little empathy or concern about gender bias and race prejudice. They team seemed blind to and unaware of the volume of published on segregated schools and housing, disparities in Black and White income/wealth in the city of Peoria and surrounding county. The Borsberry team was reluctant and discouraged making use of those factors in-front of the judge because, they said, the court wouldn't be "sympathetic" to them. For my particular case these factors were relevant, and they are really issues in Peoria. You'd probably be served better elsewhere, especially if you are a Black person/person of color given their lack of knowledge, empathy and deniial of race bias. In my opinion they’re not equipped to advocate well where issues about race bias are a factor. This may not be intentional or unique to The Borsberry Law team, as segregation and poor education and economic outcomes for Black people is the norm that many in Peoria may simply be blind to. Things have changed dramatically for the better since I retained a new lawyer. I clearly see how poorly the Borsberry Law team handled my case.

Excellent Attorney

I am very pleased with the job that Joe and his team did for me. His consultation was FREE and he answered my questions in down to earth fashion that I could understand. I did have a few questions before we went to court and I was able to contact him at any time. When we went to court he was very wel...l prepared and he produced the out come that I was hopeing for. He and his team kept me well informed as to what was going on and they gave me reminders as to when my court appearance scheduled. I will defiantly use Joe and his team again. I would defiantly recommend him and his team to anyone who needs an excellent and experienced lawyer.
