Unresponsive and passive

Recently consulted w/ Mr. Geis. Planned to hire him and he then stated he took on 2 new cases so didn’t have time for us. Also stated he was going to be busy w/ his kids activities,. Instead of telling us this ASAP in the fee based consultation, he waited and was unresponsive to messages at the offic...e and to track him done about 2 weeks later to find out this news. Very unprofessional behavior. Just sent us off w/ 3 other names of lawyers to try.

Compassionate, thorough care!

Joe helped my wife and I build peace of mind into our lives for the future of our four children. He explained all of the opportunities, and options for us to protect our family, assets and hard work. I highly recommend Joe for any Estate Planning, or Guardianship legal work.

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.
