Excellent Attorney
Joanna Schiaffo helped me through the always difficult divorce process. She listened, assessed my needs, always responded quickly to my emails/phone calls, and provided the knowledgeable support I needed. She is personable, direct, and stood up for me and my rights. I felt Joanna treated me with r...

Thank goodness for Joanna!
Joanna just handled my divorce case and I couldn't be happier. My ex made things take longer than necessary and Joanna really went above and beyond and did extra work to make sure we were ready for every situation. She never let me down and was alway prepared.

Wasteful
Having an attorney didn't help, or was unnecessary. Or I had the wrong laywer on my case. In the small amount of contact I had with her, settling was the topic.

I believe myself to be a tireless advocate for my clients and strive for their satisfaction. I approach each case individually, and through my communication with a client, determine what is most favorable for him or her based on his or her individual needs and desired strategy. I eagerly communicate with clients, by phone, email and face-to-face contact, in order to address each concern. I will take your review into consideration in my future practice, however, I must emphasize that my course of conduct is largely dictated upon a client’s expressed preferences.

Joanna is an expert in her field, highly knowledgable and very well regarded by her peers."
