Managed a nightmare

Joe represented me for a divorce and restraining order cases, and was professional, kind, direct, and honest. I felt like he actually cared about what was important to me, and advocated for me in front of the judge. It dragged on for a year and a half and the entire time I felt like my case was imp...ortant and well-prepared for, and that after getting bumped 5 times, by the 6th set and actual hearing we were well prepared and expectations were realistic. Honestly, for a horrible and scary season of life, with many unknowns and variables, Joe helped me weather the madness and in the end we got what was best for my child and myself. I thought he got back to me in a timely manner, made time for emergency phone calls, and was professional, honest, realistic and kind- a rare combination these days. Beyond satisfied with his representation.

Excellent attorney representing me as a tenant

Joe helped me out greatly as a tenant in an eviction case. He was very informative in the process and realistic in what we could expect. The outcome of the case was the best case scenario where I was awarded monies and given adequate time to move out. I would recommend Joe to any tenant that needs le...gal help whether just advice or full representation.
