Joanna is a wonderful attorney

Even though I was the respondent, I felt like we were always in front of matters due to Joanna's prompt filings and strategic foresight. She provided sound, straightforward, and correct counsel throughout the case. Joanna demonstrated her thorough understanding of the applicable laws, as the opposi...ng counsel had to shift their position/strategy in response to our filings. I wholeheartedly recommend Joanna and know that I couldn't have found a better attorney to represent me. Very thankful for how things were settled.

Incredibly professional and courteous!

Joanna did a great job from the beginning, setting realistic expectations and not just giving me a fairy tale expectation. She delivered our message well to the Commissioner and got a favorable outcome! I could see her taking notes and altering our plan by using the other parties words against them..., it was just overall impressive to watch. **I have had other council before, so I have something to compare to, and Joanna was just fantastic all around!*

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.
