Excellent settlement and experience in litigation. Highly recommend.

Joel did a phenomenal job on my case. My dog and I were hit by a car walking across MLK boulevard three years ago. In the end he got me a settlement that was Three times bigger than we initially expected when we launched my law suit. Joel communicates quickly, concisely and effectively. He is accoun...table and was extremely responsive to my questions. I highly recommend Joel Sturm.

Excellent experience working with Joel

Joel's knowledge and guidance with our case was incredibly helpful. He communicated effectively and timely throughout the process and made sure we understood what we needed to do as the prosecuting party. I highly recommend Joel and would definitely hire him again for future legal needs.

Hardworking and trustworthy

Joel has been working on my case for months. It was a hard case but he worked tirelessly to get justice for my family. I am very appreciative of his knowledge, passion, persistence and his work with the Eder firm.

Joel Sturm review

Atty Joel Sturm gave me advice regarding a possible legal situation involving a roommate and her lease agreements and what I could potentially expect. He was extremely helpful and informative, gave me sound advice and made me aware of steps I might need to take and what my rights are. He answered all... my questions thoughtfully and in great detail.
