Joseph Stephen Pearl

Mr. Pearl was very helpful with our dads estate after 25 years of inactivity, he was able to complete the probate case without any issues. Mr. Pearl is very professional, compassionate and understanding to our situation. During court proceedings Mr. Pearl was a blessing to us and I highly recommend him to handle any probate case, he is the best in the business.

To start out my mother is aging and we needed to get her estate worked out. I went not knowing what he charged but the average from phone calls to lawyers was between $1,500 to $4,000. I went to him because I got to actually talk to him on the phone (only receptionist other places). He got us right in but wanted Mom to go in alone, I was worried she couldn't handle it, that she might need my help. He did it because he wanted to be sure no one was influencing her, that she was getting what SHE wanted. Talk about integrity! After few minutes I could hear her laughing in the room, I felt so much better. Since she only has a house and savings he found a way to get everything we needed for the Estate including Durable Health Care POA etc for under the lowest price quoted anywhere (under $1,000). There was a little delay but so worth it, such quality work and delivered to my office in a nice Binder. He is nice, trustworthy, affordable, and does quality work.

Mr. Pearl took the time to talk to us over the phone several times before we finally had to start court proceedings. He was attentive, helpful and knew how to help us. Once we had to petition the court, he handled it all for us, long distance. We highly recommend him.

I have used Joseph for my personal business, and consequently refer my clients & family without hesitation. He is excellent with his clients & returns calls & emails promptly.

Joseph Pearl did a fantastic job getting me and my family through a very daunting probate/estate settlement. He was always available and eager to answer my thousand questions. Professional, knowledgeable and helpful. I'd highly recommend him and his services.

We had an unusual and complicated issue with my parents estate. After receiving no help from another local attorney I went to Mr Pearl. His knowledge of estate law was obvious when he proposed options for us. He was able to straighten everything out and get our issue settled. Highly recommend Mr. Pearl for any kind of estate/trust/will law. We will be using him again in the future.

Rapid response, concise information. We chose to put this problem off, but would use this atty again.

Joseph is a very professional and outstanding bankruptcy attorney. If you are looking for someone to handle your bankruptcy, he is the one to call. He goes above and beyond and will take you through each step of the process explaining and clarifying everything along the way. He is quick to answer your questions and stays on top of everything. His rates are very reasonable.  My wife and I highly recommend him.

Mr. Pearl was not available to start a new case as quickly as we needed .. so we had to engage another attorney. Mr. Pearl was always our first choice and we were very impressed with our conversations. Since we did not engage him we can't speak to anything other than our first impressions. But we told him that if we needed to find another attorney he would be our first call. We would highly recommend anyone needing an attorney to give him a call and be sure to at least decide for yourself if he is right for you. We will if needed to again... He should at least be on your short to call ...

I went to Joseph after I had a very bad experience with Larry R. Cox at Young Wooldridge. I was buying a house from a family who lost their dad to brain cancer. The father passed away without a will and he was the only one on the deed so before the family could sell me their house they needed to go through probate. After Larry Cox offended the oldest child and claimed the family was like herding cats he fired me, the widow and the children while taking the retainer money. Later I found out he was up selling me on services and reports that we never needed and was dragging out our probate so I would pay him more and more money. I would never mention Larry Cox nor the law firm he represents in this post except for the fact that the service was so horrible and out right ruthless that it's worth mentioning here as to protect anyone from getting burned by Larry Cox or the law firm he represents, Young Wooldridge. To sum it up Joseph Pearl came to the rescue. After we lost our shirts at Young Wooldridge I made it my mission to find the best attorney possible to make up for lost time and stolen money. I found 6 other attorneys, Joseph Pearl Included, I called them and interviewed them each. After you get burned by a lawyer it's a lot easier to read between the lines and sift out the vampires from the honest hard working attorneys that are actually there to help people and who also care about their good name and business. I can tell you not only did Joseph save the day he charged me only a quarter of what Cox was charging me and he came up with an idea to get around the normal probate process to essentially make probate go super quick for the widow and children. I'm still surprised myself how seamless and easy Joseph made everything. So yes, I highly recommend Joseph and I will definitely be using him in the future. He's honest, will listen to you and he will expedite whatever it is you're striving to accomplish!
