Joe took care of my family and I for several years. He made sure he communicated the complexities of the legal process in a way I could understand. He made sure I always knew where the case stood and gave me advice through the times that I needed it. I very much appreciate Joe for his service and will come back to the Zinda firm in case of any future troubles.
February 2016, is a blur to me. I was in a tragic auto wreck with my parents who died at the scene. Joe was there for my family until I was able to communicate, then he was there for me through the rest of my ordeal. One never knows what to do in the event a tradgedy takes place. Joe was there to answer questions and cheer me on my recovery. A little over a year later, I am well on my way to recovery AND the settlement!! I have no idea how or what we would have done without the expert advice of Joe and Sunday Law group. Thank you Joe for being there for me and my family during the most horrific time of our lives.

Great Attorney
Mr. Caputo is a fantastic attorney. Although I hope that I don't have to call an attorney for anything else, if I needed to I would call Joey.

He Really Cared
I used Joe for assistance on several legal matters. He really took the time out to explain the process, and I always felt like he cared. I don't know too many attorneys who give out their cell phone number, or respond to text messages on the weekends, but I would definitely recommend Joe to my family and friends.

Always got back to me quickly
Joey/Jennifer were very nice through this whole experience. They always got back with me very quickly and answered all of my questions. Joey also made this process easier to understand any/all legal terms. I had nothing but a pleasant experience doing business with Joey.

Joey is a smart, savy and well-versed attorney who was able to help me through all the intricacies of my case. He was very easy to deal with and showed very strong communication and negotiation skills. Additionally, both Jennifers (paralegals) were friendly, helpful, and responded quickly to any questions I had.
Overall, it was an excellent experience that concluded with a satisfying settlement to my case. Thank You!!

Smart, Honest & Hardworking
Our family hired Joe after dealing with a serious injury involving our child. While the results exceeded my expectations, I was really impressed throughout the process with how well everything was intelligently explained to me. When I had questions, they were answered.
I haven't had great experiences with attorneys in the past, so it was a pleasant surprise dealing with Joe and his firm. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone that needed an attorney.

I received much more compensation than I was able to negotiate myself.
Helped me get the care I needed before I received settlement. Care that was very important and effective in relieving my pain, but something I may not have pursued otherwise. Completely explained my case and accurately predicted expected outcomes. I received much more compensation than I was able to negotiate myself. Certainly a very worthwhile decision in making Joey my representative. Very fair in their compensation as well.

Joey Caputo Attorney Review
I knew I needed an attorney and that didn’t make me happy. I don’t like attorneys, period. I have been employed by them and I’ve hired them. I called and interviewed several before I chose Joey. I was blunt with Joey about how I felt about his profession, yet knew I needed him. He said he understood. I’m glad they don’t rate their clients online, as I doubt I was the easiest client he has had to deal with. I would ask many questions, and then call back and ask them again and more. I wanted background information, and the why’s and any options that I was sure he didn’t tell me about the first phone call. He was patient and either answered my phone call or returned my call promptly. He explained the law, the process and my options to me every step of the case and made sure I had time to make decisions. He knew the law, he knew the process, he knew his business. By the end of this case, I would and have recommended him. I actually hope to never need an attorney again, but if I do, I will call Joey Caputo.

A great lawyer
I would recommend this lawyer to any family who has experienced tragedy from wrongful death. He was very dedicated to resolving matters that would bring comfort to me and my family. I am so grateful for all he has done, and I never want to experience this type of tragedy again, but if I did, he would be the one to call.

What can attorney Caputo do for you?
Every data here is documented and can be verified.
On Oct. 2016 a family member was brutally killed as he walked across a street to get to the convenience /gas station.
I signed Mr. Caputos to represent our interest. The following took place in the span of several months.
when i met caputo I supplied himwith newspaper data that reported the incident, the first and final police report of the accident . names of witnesses i gathered from from the newspaper and the police report .
He supplied the same given report ,a video he got that anyone could have gotten as this was FOI (freedom of info.) and a few pics of a dead body . Thats it. No data as as to names dates or results .what we accomplish? nothing.
He stated he needed additional plaintiffs for the case after months later and Caputo still kept us waiting. Months of phone tagging, missing appointments and non action we parted ways. So the question is what did he do all those months ? Conduct an investigation? where? wheres the investigators name, new data Eyewitness statements, data of the scene? his interview of the driver? passenger ? All we had was what i had given him a police report a video that captured the incident and foul pics of my dead family member.
Did Caputo researched the law for options? it takes Caputo months to strategically plan and implement a case.then why did the majority of other attorneys give us the same answers within a day.
So months of nothing we let him go. Caputo sent a reply stating HE wont represent our case, although we might have a valid case, but he wont represent us, after we let him go? Realistically, we felt Caputo is trying to save face. we feel left in the back burner, when we moaned he reacted.. slightly. when terminated he gets miffed and states HE dropped us. childish reaction. Mind you a pedestrian got killed.
FACTS
1. On videotaped it showed it wasnt dark. it was dusk not nighttime. There were large lit street lights on the corners including one over where the impact took place. there was bright lights from the gas station at the same corner there was bright neon lights from the conv. store /gas station, and restaurant across the same corner.
2 video shows pedestrian walked corner to corner. He didn't dart out between cars. there was no obstruction. it was an open 5 lane street It took him almost 15 sec to get to other side
3. the driver contradicts his version of what happened more then once Wife admitted to searching on the phone for a place to eat suggesting distraction, not paying attention
4. NOBODY deserves to be killed and shelved the pedestrian was . especially from your own counsel. Its a good ol boys Texas town with attitude. the newspaper reporter admited. the pedestrian was 60 years old Hispanic man. killed crossing a well lit at 3-4 ft away other corner. hit by a well to do white male at more then 40 mph flipping pedestrian in the air, landing over 40 feet away, breaking his legs fracturing his skull, lacerating his body and detaching his arm .
Video shows break lights after impact. driver moved truck to appear it was sudden.
we expected answers, we got NOTHING just excuses. Other attorneys gave answers within days, why waste our time, his time, the bars time. just say i don't want, can't handle, can't do, complete or win this case? Caputo just gave insult to injury.
