Joe Pickard and his firm recently helped me through a long and contentious divorce. It was by far the most difficult period in my life, but Joe and his team helped to manage the process and kept me focused on our overall objectives. We chose an effective mediator and avoided a costly trial. In fact, ...Joe developed a number of strategies that helped to save me money during the settlement process. If you are going through a divorce, it is vital that you choose an attorney with whom you can develop an effective relationship during this difficult period in your life. I found Joe to be very effective and efficient, but it was his qualities of honesty, empathy, fairness, integrity and loyalty that were key to making the relationship work. He was truly my trusted advisor and protected my interests, (legal, fiduciary, emotional and spiritual)! Thank you Joe, KayAnn and the entire team at Pickard and Associates!

I cannot recommend Joe Pickard and his dear staff highly enough. If you ask him to represent you, you are going to find yourself truly blessed. If you have come to that point in your life situation where you need an attorney, Joe will stand by you and do far more for you than to just get you throug...h it. Perhaps, your divorce case is amicable and easy to resolve, but perhaps what took you to this painful decision was having no choice but to seek freedom from a kind of prison. The issues in my marriage became a nightmare during the divorce. Even when you know freedom will come eventually , it may turn darker and more contentious than you think you can survive--- even when you are grounded in an unshakable faith in the goodness of God. Joe has a unique and remarkable gift to encourage that is truly God-given. He is a joy and a light to all around him! And he has a spirit of excellence! He will be a friend when you need one. You will be impacted for life in the best possible way; Joe deserves high honor for his heart, his passion for people in need, his integrity, and the lasting hope he will release into your life. God bless Joe Pickard!
