Remarkable
I was referred to Joe's firm by another well respected attorney in St. Louis. I called him recently and thanked him for the outstanding recommendation! Joe's ability to strategize my case and our approach then methodically follow through with the execution! He is extremely knowledgeable on not only the laws but court systems in the different counties! His knowledge showed to pay off in many different ways! His personal touch along with bringing the rights assistance in my case when needed was nothing short of a perfectly executed plan with phenomenal teamwork! Joe and his firm are undeniably the best in the business! I highly recommend anyone who may see themselves in this tough personal situation to take the time to counsel with Joe before making any decisions! The BEST!!

Got me custody
It's tough for a guy going through a custody case, especially when you think the deck is stacked against you as a father. But by the end of the case, I got everything I was after. I've already referred him to two other family members and friends. I'd recommend Joe to anyone.

Initial consult and retainer
Joe took time to review the whole process to me with a keen sense of understanding mixed with immense understanding of Family Law. I am a single father of three kids and I feel confident that I chose the right lawyer to protect my interests for my complicated custody case. I am going to rate Joe as this case progresses, but at this time I would HIGHLY recommend Joe for your consideration.

Highly Complicated Divorce Made So Much Easier
I hired Mr. Lambson knowing that my divorce case would be complicated. I own a business and there were tough financial, business interest and custody issues to sort out. I was apprehensive about the process--especially in hiring a lawyer. I'd heard so many horror stories. Hiring Joe Lambson was the single, best decision I made. He took a process that could have been so much more complicated and expensive and ended up finishing the whole process for less than half of what I was quoted by other attorneys, and with a result that was even better than the expectations we set at our first meeting. I really could not be any happier with my choice. Anyone looking for a smart lawyer who is also tough would do well to hire Joe. I would recommend him to friends and family and have already done so.

Awesome lawyer
Joseph is currently helping my husband and I in a very complicated child suppor/custody case for my husband's daughter. He has been awesome and we should be finished with our case in 2 or so months. I've reccomended him multiple times already! !

Joe Lambson Got a Great Result For Me
I was rear-ended in a car accident, and the car accident aggravated some chronic conditions that I have and required many months of chiropractic visits. I used Joe Lambson to help me with settling the insurance claims. I was very happy with the result that he obtained for me for both the damage to the vehicle and for my personal injuries. I felt the settlement was pretty generous, and importantly, he was able to negotiate a settlement quite quickly after my chiropractor released me from care. I would recommend him to anyone.

Joe Lambson represented me during a difficult and lengthy modification of my divorce decree. Faced with what I knew would be an uphill struggle, I am so glad I came to Hais, Hais, Goldberger & Coyne and had the opportunity to have Joe work on my case. Joe Lambson was great in responding to my emails, phone calls and questions (and I had tons). While I was going through what was a confusing process at times, I was so glad that Mr. Lambson was prompt and knowledgable in responding to my questions and was a great advocate in court. Working with Mr. Lambson, I always felt comfortable, respected and my case turned out for the best. I highly reccomend Mr. Joseph Lambson to anyone out there who needs a great family law attorney.

Excellent Attorney
Mr. Lambson is an incredible attorney. I have never had an attorney so responsive to me, who really listens to me and answers my phone calls and emails so completely. He responds so quickly and is so patient and caring when he talks to me. This is not to say he isn't tough -- because he is! He fought so hard for me and I am very happy with the outcome. Hopefully I will not need another family law attorney again, but if I do, I will certainly go back to Mr. Lambson. I would recommend him to anyone going through a divorce or custody issues.

Highly Recommend
Mr. Lambson has been knowledgable and on top of my case from the beginning. A huge difference from my last attorney! I'd recomend him to anyone who is looking for someone who will keep you informed and treat you with respect. While I hope I never have to be in this position again, If I do, I'll go back to Joe Lambson in a heartbeat.
