A great Lawyer !!!

Mr Gorman was wonderful to work with on my case. I felt he faught hard to get me the highest offer I was going to receive. He was caring and empathetic to my case and me as an individual person. I would definitely use him again if the need ever arises. I would also recommend him if you need help i...n his area of law. Thank you Mr. Gorman !!!

Did a great job!

I was getting ready to plead guilty and take a felony which my public defender had advised me to do "just take the deal" So I went and hired Joseph Gorman and right away he talked the DA into offering me drug court. If it weren't for him I would have a felony on my record!

"I endorse this lawyer. Joe had a distinguished tenure at the public defenders office, successfully litigating several large cases. And those skills have transferred well to Black & Graham. He has been a quick study, applying his knowledge of the courtroom and knowing the judges, and attending every course imaginable, so he's already more advanced than most family law practitioners with several years more experience."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
