Joel Hoffman has been practicing family law in Arizona for over thirty years, and he still returns his clients’ calls before he goes home at night.
Divorce-related worry and stress are almost inevitable ... but they do not have to be overwhelming. Many of Joel's clients have attributed to him their feelings of empowerment and independence as they emerge from one of the most difficult periods that they will ever face.
Joel has a diverse background in law, and his primary focus has been in family law and juvenile law. He also has significant experience in criminal misdemeanor and felony matters. He is an experienced trial attorney who also encourages his clients to utilize mediation, binding arbitration and other forms of alternative dispute resolution.
Joel is a native of Pennsylvania and has practiced law in Arizona since 1984. He received his bachelor's degree from Penn State and his law degree from the University of Akron. Joel is licensed to practice in Arizona and Pennsylvania.
"My unifying objective in serving my clients is this: When your divorce is final or you have resolved a difficult post-decree issue, and you leave my office for the last time, you are emotionally and legally prepared to start the next chapter in your life.”

Joel has been extremely patient with the ex in our case. Her stall tactics and lies only made Joel work harder to get us a fair agreement.

Joel has been my attorney for over 20 years and in every situation from handling estate matters,an accident,or custody issues- he has always been thorough, prepared and totally professional. He cares about his clients and is there for them.
"I have known, worked with and opposed Joel Hoffman over many years. Aside from the fact that he is one of the "good guys," he's also an excellent lawyer and competitor and has my highest recommendation."
"Joel was opposing counsel on a modification of parenting time and child support. He was a pleasure to work with and I enjoyed learning from his experience."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have had a number of cases with Joel over the year. He is an extremely knowledgeable attorney who strongly advocates for his clients,"
"I have had a number of cases over the years with Joel as opposing counsel. Joel is a strong, knowledgeable and passionate advocate for his clients and their positions and a skilled and worthy opponent at trial. Yet, he is still able to maintain a level of professionalism that allows for meaningful dialogue towards possible resolution outside of trial. I would recommend Joel to anyone with a divorce or other family law matter."
