Personal Injury Case

I found Attorney Plumbar and his team to be professional and highly competent in representing me in my auto accident case. Joseph educated me on what to expect, the possible outcomes and the overall timeline. Throughout the entire process, Joseph encouraged me to be patient and after years of ...back and forth with the insurance company, I was more than satisfied with the outcome of my case. I would recommend the Plumbar Law Group to anyone looking for excellent legal representation. Thank you Joseph!

Professional, Quality, Responsive

From start to finish Mr. Joseph K Plumbar was very professional.  Diligently working to get me the understanding and knowledge of my case.  Fast and easy to talk too.  If I had questions, he had answers. He never stopped fighting for me to get more for all my medical bills, therapies, and compensatio...n for pain and suffering. The whole experience was very easy and I could not be more appreciative of the hard work Mr. Plumbar put in.  Thank you very much!!

What an amazing Lawyer

I was involved in a major car accident on 1/29/16. My mother in law referred me to two lawyer. One of the being Mr. Plumbar. Not knowing either of the lawyers I just went with the first choice. My first choice wasn't Mr. Plumbar, but a different lawyer. That lawyer was not at all helpful to me or my ...case. In the beginning I did most of the leg work with no certainty that my case will be resolved. I ended up terminating that lawyer and reached out to Mr. Plumbar. That was by far one of the best decision I have ever made. Upon talking to and hiring Mr. Plumbar he ensured me that everything will be fine and taken care of. I gave him all the information regarding my case and he took the ball and immediately started to run with it. He fought for me and got me the whole insurance policy. Throughout the entire process he was very informative and helpful. I literally had nothing to worry or stress about. I really enjoyed working with Mr. Plumbar. He is very intelligent, knowledgeable, professional, caring and genuine. I would hire him again in a New York second. He is very respectable and dependable. I end by saying that I highly recommend Mr. Plumbar to anyone seeking legal advice. Thanks Mr. Plumbar for all your effort and hard work. I can't thank you enough.

Child Custody Case

I can't say enough good things about him! After a grueling 3 year long battle with my Ex trying to regain custody of my kids I finally saw light at the end of the tunnel and he won my case. Before I retained his services I had been through 2 different lawyers and spent thousands of dollars only to fe...el like I had been taking advantage of. Joseph is very professional and went above and beyond what I had EVER saw an Attorney do. He knows and understands how the law system works. He explains everything clearly and lets you know up front what to expect good or bad. Trust me you can't go wrong with hiring him and having him represent you! The court room is his playground!
