Joe worked the case, on behalf of our son's DUI with a jet ski. Although I am not a patient person, Joe knew best to pace the case so that the judge would rule favorably for our son, by giving our son the opportunity to demonstrate his good character, his dedication to his professional career, but ...also his remorse for his own actions/poor decisions while using a jet ski.

We call on a Sunday and left a message that we needed a lawyer for my son. Joe was at the court house on Monday morning. Joe was very professional and courteous. He told us exactly what was going to happen. He had our son out of jail Monday afternoon. He’s very thurall and recommends things for you t...o do to improve your case. He keeped us very well informed on very thing that was going to happen. We can’t thank Joe enough for everything that he has done for our son. EXCELLENT LAWYER!!!!!!! Would highly recommend

When my wife and I heard the amount of money we would have to pay for Joe to take my case, we felt like we took a punch to the gut. We had already spent so much on a lawyer who did nothing to help, and advised I should bend over and take a charge and a consequence I felt I didn't deserve and would pr...etty near ruin my life. When I met with Joe, he assured us he would fight. Out of all the lawyers I met with, Joe was the only one with the drive and confidence I felt I had to find in my lawyer to save me from this. I needed someone who would fight tooth and nail for me, and I had no choice but to put all my eggs, and money, in his basket. We were scared that he was all talk, that he knew what we wanted to hear and knew what to say to get us to hand him our savings. But we had to give it a shot. You can't support your family from jail. It turned out to be the best decision I made since being charged. My biggest regret is hiring someone else first, and wasting all that time and money. If you need a fight, don't even bother looking at another attorney. He searched for every possible angle, every way he could help me, and most importantly believed in me. He offered so much advise and legal support to give me the best possible outcome. He got my felony DWI charge down to a misdemeanor, and even with the circumstances and my sobriety and hard work, that's rare and hard to do. But he fought for me. His team is worth every penny. My ONLY complaint is that the front desk assistant is cold and impersonable. For the quality of attorney, I was surprised at her poor customer service!

If you should ever find yourself in a situation where you should need a criminal defense attorney in southern Missouri there is no better than Joe Passanise. He was fair, honest and worth every penny. His paralegal Sarah was on top of everything and always reachable. When I had no fight left in me th...ey got me through. Couldn't be more grateful for all there hardwork.
