A complete rip and unprofessional Law firm
I met with Mr. Jeff Joseph on 8/6/2012 an INS attorney and he charged me a $157 Consultation fee ( a discount if I paid before meeting him) and we discussed a plea I took in 2011.

Jeffrey Dean Joseph's Lawyer Endorsements
"It is difficult to quantify Jeff's capacity to interpret the law. He has a brilliant legal mind, which is why it is no surprise that he is a leader and nationally recognized expert on immigration law. He is sincere, hardworking and fearless. He is an incredible mentor to many and works tirelessly to achieve fairness and equal access to justice for the immigrant community. He is a phenomenal attorney and advocate."
"Jeff is a nationally recognized immigration lawyer, and for good reason. He brings unparalleled knowledge of the law and agency policies, but also recognizes areas where he can push for change or expanded interpretation on behalf of his clients. His comprehensive knowledge, outside-the-box creativity, and willingness to be aggressive when needed make Jeff one of the top immigration lawyers in the country."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jeff since 2008. In that time we have worked together on two separate occasions. He is an excellent attorney and a tireless advocate. He is a national leader in the immigration law field as well as here in Colorado. He has been a great mentor and friend to me and to many other attorneys across the county. I recommend him without hesitation or reservation."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jeff and his firm have an outstanding reputation."

"Mr. Joseph is one of the nation's foremost experts on immigration and naturalization legal matters. I endorse this lawyer."
"I am a criminal defense attorney specializing in DUI defense. In my field, immigration issues often arise, whether dealing with a non-citizen or travel issues related to DUI convictions. A criminal attorney is a fool if he or she gives immigration advice other than advising a client to seek the assistance of an immigration specialist. Mr. Joseph is the immigration expert that is at the top of my list to contact or refer a client to when a potential immigration issue arises."
"Jeff and his firm are top notch, and are on the top of my list for referrals for my family law and criminal defense clients with immigration issues."
"Jeff is the preeminent immigration lawyer in Denver. He is the first name that comes to my mind when I need a referral on immigration matters. When I refer clients to Jeff, I am confident that they will receive the highest level of representation. He is an outstanding attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer."
