Debbie Joe is a TOP NOTCH ATTORNEY

I wanted to share my experience with Debbie. She helped my family through a very difficult time when my grandpa needed an estate plan drawn up quickly. He is elderly, and Debbie showed genuine concern, treating him compassionately. I highly recommend Debbie if you are looking for a competent top not...ch attorney, with a sensitive and open approach that gets the job done. She helped my family, and I have referred her to my friends.

Wonderful Attorney!

When I was hurt at work, I did not know what to do. Ms. Joe was recommended to me by another lawyer in the Los Angeles area. Throughout my case, I found her to be trustworthy and professional. She helped me understand the workers' compensation system, my options and helped me navigate the system. I b...elieve it was through her proactive and aggressive approach, that I was awarded such a large settlement. Ms. Joe negotiated an amazing settlement that was 10 times more than what was first offered to me by the insurance company. I am grateful for Ms. Joe's help. So glad I found her.

"Debbie Yeh Joe is an extremely conscientious attorney with over 16 years of experience. Her prestigious career commenced as a clerk under the Honorable Judges Florence Marie Cooper and Robert Kelleher, both extremely sought after positions that only the most promising candidates are awarded. She then joined GLSBR, where we worked together as Workers’ Compensation defense attorneys. I had the opportunity to observe her in court, and personally witnessed her excellent legal knowledge and arguments. Not only does she have a sharp intellect, she is gracious and kind - a rare quality in an attorney. I have a solo practice, and entrust her with cases that I cannot take on because of the quality of care she gives her clients and high level of professionalism. I would not hesitate in hiring her as my legal representative and highly recommend her services."

"I have been both a co-worker at a law office with Ms. Joe as well as co-counsel in various workers' compensation & estate planning matters over the past 9-10 years. Ms. Joe's knowledge of both workers' compensation & estate planning laws and procedure make her an invaluable advocate and counsel for her clients. Her professional experience is exemplary, and includes working with federal court judges and many years in private practice. Additionally, she consistently gives clients her personal attention to help them succeed. As a fellow member of the legal profession, who has litigated various claims in my career, I wholeheartedly endorse Ms. Joe as one of the best workers' compensation attorneys in California.
