This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

If I could put 100 stars on this review I would.

Joseph Marcee is an amazing human being besides being an excellent attorney! I refer juvenile cases to him all the time because of his exceptional work with the Williamson County Court system. Joseph is like part of the family upon meeting him, he shows extraordinary empathy and compassion towards ...his clients, and will work diligently to provide the best legal defense he can. I would refer Joseph Marcee to anyone I know, and send him referrals often.

Excellent Lawyer

Joseph is not only an excellent lawyer but also a great person. After meeting with him first time I was extremely comfortable to discuss my case with him. He's very devoted to his work and works very diligently and has always guided me with my case very sincerely. As a result of which he got a great... outcome for me in my case. Which was above and beyond my expectation. His way of thinking is "GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU HAVE AND THE BEST WILL COME BACK." And that's what he really did for me. Once again sincerely thank you so much for your endless hard work, time and effort. I would highly recommend JOSEPH at anytime.

Rick

Joseph was always accessible during my legal experience with the Williamson County Court system. My case went as well as it possibly could have because of the decisions made by Joseph Marcee. He was always professional and gave me only the information that I needed to know while negotiating with the ...plaintiffs, thereby, managing my emotions in a healthful way. Joseph accomplishments during my ordeal surpassed my expectations. He really saved me from a life time of regret.

"I have known Joe since our days together in law school, and I had the pleasure of working with him for several years as an Army JAG. He is everything you want in an attorney - smart, meticulous, confident, and level-headed. He takes the time to read through every document associated with a case and knows the facts cold, and he carefully researches any and all related law in order to fine-tune the issues and bring about the best possible result for his client. He is a seasoned litigator and performs extraordinarily well in the courtroom. I trust his judgement without hesitation, and I absolutely recommend him for any legal matter."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Joe Marcee is an extremely talented, fearlessly tenacious attorney, but more importantly, he is a straight shooter, a proven leader, and a top-notch legal professional. I learned more about trial work going up against him, and the defense team he led, than any other training in my legal training. Although I have moved, changed jobs, and we no longer work in the same system, Joe continues to field my nagging questions and gives great advice. If I were in Texas, I'd be first in line to buy him a beer."
