I would like to express my sincerest thanks for the commitment and professionalism of Mr. Joseph Land to my case. He worked on the Guardianship Case concerning my granddaughter, Serenity. The consistent and outstanding efforts of Mr. Land and his staff, including Mr. Land's exceptional presentatio...n and presence in the court room, demonstrated tremendous knowledge, skill, caring, commitment and character -- the most important attributes, I believe, of successful legal assistance and representation (especially for a client like myself who is stationed half a world away in Europe). Also, Mr. Land's unique approach of "Court Call" allowed me to attend every hearing by phone without incurring the tremendous costs of flying back and forth from Germany to California. I can not thank you or Mr. Land enough. Please know that I will contact his firm should I ever need additional legal assistance or advice. I really appreciate not only his efforts but also your positive attitude, knowledge, character, and how you conducted the events for the hearings and all the documents and activities that went along with them. Highly recommended Again, thank you so very much. May God bless you always!

Mr. Land worked tirelessly for me when my children were taken from me by DCFS. He prepared me for court, prepared well written documents for the Judge, and argued vigorously for my children to be returned. When all was said and done the Judge complimented him and said that I was lucky to have him. ... I couldn't agree more. No one seemed to care about ordinary people like myself in Dependency court....well Mr. Land Does. I would recommend him to anyone.

I was in a dire situation in the middle of my ugly divorce and Joe was the only attorney to really exhibit true compassion for my situation. I had been dealing with an incompetent attorney who falsely represented information going on in my case, was constantly changing stories and information, and I ...ultimately terminated after she flat out failed to present any information or argument to my benefit. I had lost my job, relocated to a new state and had that awful woman swallow almost $4000 of my father's money. Joe reached out to my message on Legal Match and was willing to come to my rescue when no one else would. His assistance and advice was invaluable, and his kindness equally as so. I was fortuante to reach a settlement before retaining his services, however, I would strongly recommend this attorney to anyone looking for representation with brains and a soul.

Hi there, I made two huge mistakes in my life. First was the wrong marriage, and the second was choosing the wrong lawyer to get rid of the first mistake. I went through a HUGE stress and costs, not only to deal with my ex but also deal with my lawyer. In addition to all these, I am a stage IV ...breast cancer patient, with a lesion in my brain, I had loss of coordination/dizziness during my final court; i also went through two years of cancer treatments which made me physically and mentally very fragile. I thought hiring a lawyer will give me a peace of mind, and decrease my anxiety level, but it was not so. I will try to explain my experience; 1- Mr. Joseph Land never clearly explained the process; everything was always a question for me which was never answered straight forward. - I had to send multiple emails to Joseph and his team, to get a straight answer to one simple question; I was always begging for information. All he always said was "don't worry, everything will be okay!" There was nothing to make me feel that everything was all right! In the end, when the judge gave the final decision and gave the order for a QDRO; the only thing Joseph Land told me was "Congrats" and left me. He didn't explain what my next step was. What is a QDRO? Was he going to finalize that process? I had to go through additional hours to find out what my next step was; finally, I emailed and called him! 2- I never knew who to contact in his office. It seems the office is not organized, and that, of course, caused me lots of stress. He sometimes didn't even notice my emails. 3- The office assistants who filled-out the forms constantly asked repeated questions and requested the same documents which I had already provided; but the forms always ended up with errors; the last one was not corrected despite my complaint. In the end, my case was submitted to the judge with a couple of errors. They fixed one of the errors, which took an additional 2 months. However, one was never fixed. I just didn't follow up on correcting that mistake, because it would take another couple of months. I'm happy it didn't give me any problems. 5- He charged me $200 to $250 per hour for a regular office assistant for even opening my emails, or saving my attachments. 6- His office didn't inform me for the costs of transcript which was $700 to $800; I paid that amount without my consent! I didn't complaint because he had my case, and I didn't want him to ruin it. My case was finalized recently, and I’m very happy that I survived after all the anxiety I went through. My husband didn’t get the alimony he was asking for; but it is hard to believe that with my health condition, the judge would have decided otherwise, with or without a lawyer. My medical documents could win the case. Thank you for reading.
