Great Attorney!!!

Joe Nemelka has been my attorney for almost 3 years. I have been going through a custody battle since 2012. Joe is very professional and he gives a fast response to your concerns. He tells you the truth... not what you want to hear like some attorneys!! I love that he is to the point and tells you re...alistically what the courts will see, he never delivers broken promises. He doesn't waste my money and is truly an honest and genuine attorney. I have recommended him to family and he has done a great job for them as well. Thanks Joe!

Great Lawyer--Highly recommended

Joseph is the ultimate professional. He is extremely passionate about his occupation and there is no better advocate for his clients. I have worked with Joe on several different levels for over 10 years and would highly recommend him to any of my friends who were in need of family law advice or servi...ces. Fabulous attorney!

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.
