Great Communcation, Top Notch Integrity and Very Effective

I can't say enough about working with Joe. From the very first conversation, he was honest, straightforward, and genuinely invested in understanding the situation. His team's approach combines trustworthiness with real efficiency — I found him to be responsive thorough and reliable. What sets Joe apa...rt is his effectiveness as an advocate. He doesn't just go through the motions; in my case he helped the court understand that the issue was not wrongdoing it was overreach. He clarified the actual facts and ensured that the case was dealt with properly based on the evidence. And he has a handle on the facts! That matters more than people realize as many attorneys drop the ball on that. Joe is always on point! Thank you, Joe, for everything you did to clear up confusion in my case. I recommend him without hesitation. |JDS

Excellent representation

Succinct yet transparent and communicative, Joseph handled everything and got my case dismissed. Would highly recommend, could not have asked for a better experience.

Speeding ticket

Joseph Riemer represented me for a speeding ticket and handled a contested hearing on my behalf. The result was a full dismissal of my case, and I could not be more pleased. Joseph and his legal team were responsive, informative, and professional throughout the entire process, keeping me well informe...d at every step. I would highly recommend Joseph Reimer to anyone looking to fight a traffic ticket and get the best possible outcome.

Great Experience

I had a great experience working with Joseph Riemer. Every step of the process was fast, responsive, and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. Every instruction and update was easy to understand, and all of my questions were answered promptly. He made everything feel smooth and stress f...ree, and thanks to his work, my case was dismissed. I truly appreciate his professionalism and would highly recommend him.

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.
