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.

I got caught speeding in Waynesville with weed and acid. After about 7 months of putting in community service and out patient treatment, he was able to get all that down to a littering ticket. A FREAKING LITTERING TICKET IN AN UPTIGHT MILITARY TOWN LIKE WAYNESVILLE. That should tell you everything ab...out how amazing this man is at his job. Nice and friendly staff, too!!

I've used Joe several times for different situations. He has helped me with speeding tickets, and other things. Recently the circuit clerks office accidently issued a warrant after he went to court for me last week, his paralegal Sarah and himself quickly took care of the matter by calling the clerks... office and it was resolved in a matter of minutes. Joe is an amazing attorney and has a great staff behind him always working to make sure you're taken care of. They are Excellent!!

This was absolutley the best experience I have had with an attorney. They got me in for a consultation quickly and started working on my case immediately. Not only were they able to get my DWI dropped to an SIS, they have continued to help me throughout my probation period. Sarah, the paralegal is ab...solutley incredible. She always answers her phone or gets back to me in a timely fashion and she is incredibly knowledgeable (and if she doesn't know something she is quick to find out). Joe and/or Scott were there in the courtroom with me each time and their professionalism and knowledge of the law put me as at ease as you can be in this kind of situation. While this was my first and only time being on the defendant side of the courtroom, it was not my first time dealing with an attorney. Other lawyers I have dealt with seemed like they were in it to milk me for as much money as possible. They were upfront about pricing and charged me not a cent more than what we agreed upon. There aren't many out there who genuinley care about their clients the way Joe and his team do. They made me feel like family. I would absolutley reccomend this law office to anyone in need of a defense attorney. They know what they are doing and they do it well.

Joe and his staff have been a Godsend to our family! Our son was in and out of jail, spiraling deeper and deeper into drug addiction. Joe has guided and advised our son in the direction he needed to go in order to get out of the darkness of drugs and legal issues. His expertise in his field and ca...ring attitude has placed him at the very top of the line in his profession. Our family would highly recommend Joe. We are so grateful to Joe and his staff for their legal , caring,and dedicated expertise that has helped turn our sons life from darkness to light.
