Great Attorney

He helped me with a federal case. Great representation! I would highly recommend him as an employment attorney. Thank You

Knowledgeable, professional and excellent

I never had the need for an attorney, so when I got a charge-I contacted Joe after seeing how he helped my friend defend himself against daunting federal charges- and got him off—-I knew I had to call him. Good thing I did, the state was pressing us to take a plea but he believed in my innocence, and... thankfully so, we did not accept a plea. The case was dismissed!! I’m forever indebted to his legal knowledge, availability and kindness. He didn’t treat me like a criminal and he proved I am not!!

Great Representation

Joseph was very quick to respond to any inquiry/concern and was extremely professional during all interactions. He even traveled to Lanai to be present for my hearing. I'd happily recommend him in the future. Our court case was also decided in my favor, which was a huge relief. Thank you Joe

Not old and pompous, fights for the underdog.

Mr. Rosenbaum has represented me multiple times. He’s now my lifetime lawyer. He took my case when multiple other lawyers told me no. He listened to me, heard my story, saw my evidence and knew we had a good case. When he said he would work for me on contingency it was a lifesaver. My case was a whis...tleblower case against my former employer and after a long and stressful battle, we prevailed, just as Mr. Rosenbaum thought we would all along. He tempered my nerves and anxiety all the way through and gave very practical advice in order to keep me from going off the rails. I’ll never forget him and the job he and his staff did for me. If you need a great lawyer that isn’t old and pompous and is very down to earth, don’t hesitate to contact Joseph Rosenbaum.

Posted by Danny | January 22, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

We call him BROsenbaum...

Joseph Rosenbaum (we call him “BROsenbaum”) will be my “go-to” lawyer in this lifetime. It’s a crazy world out there, and it’s almost impossible to find an attorney with brains AND heart. A “David amongst Goliaths” — Joe was a man of integrity from day one of representing myself and my coworkers in a...n intense wrongful termination and whistleblower case with a former employer. He represents “the little guy” with swift, rock solid punches of justice! Definitely the kind of guy I can call up for legal counsel or to grab a beer! The absolute best in Honolulu.
