Joseph D. Lento

I would highly recommend the Lento Law Firm for any student dealing with a disciplinary case. My case was not the easiest to defend, but Mr.Lento and his associate Mr.Altman were very helpful and non-judgmental. I reached out on a Sunday and received a response the same night despite it being a weeke...nd. I was able to explain the situation and come up with a game plan with both Mr.Lento and Mr.Altman within the next week despite my hearing being less than 10 days away. I don't think that I would have been able to get the same result from the hearing alone as I did with their help and support. I am a naturally anxious person and this situation was stress-inducing to a new level for me and Mr.Altman was able to make me feel calm and hopeful despite everything that was going on with my life and my future. He made sure to call me in the days leading up to the hearing and in the morning of the hearing in order to make sure that I was prepared and that I had confidence in our plan. The original punishment for my misconduct was dismissal from my program which would have had detrimental effects on my future and my chances of ever going to school again. Thankfully, with the help of the Lento Law Firm, I was able to reduce the sanction and significantly improve my chances of pursuing my dream career. I cannot express enough gratitude.

Hiring Mr. Lento was the single best decision my family and I made when the world came crashing down upon us in the form of a wrongful accusation resulting in a university Title IX case. Other legal counsel told us not to expect any positive or constructive outcome in the academic processes because o...f the political climate and procedural biases generally inherent to Title IX proceedings, without too much knowledge of the processes. After months of day-in-day-out worrying, we made the decision to consult a Title IX specialist. Just like that, we encountered Mr. Lento. He spared no time diving right into the details, was realistic about probable outcomes in consultation, and assuaged our worst fears without sugar-coating the facts one bit. We immediately retained him and achieved better results than we’d ever hoped for. Hiring him was the best decision we made as a family, and we owe a great deal to his training, professionalism, politeness, and expedient responses. He put our minds and hearts at ease, and helped us solve the matter. God bless you, Joseph Lento.

Joseph Lento is an extraordinary attorney who truly went above and beyond for me on a retail store matter. The thing that impressed me most about Mr. Lento was his honesty, tenacity, and not telling me what I wanted hear. He was very straightforward and told me what to expect each step of the way. Go...ing through my legal matter from start to finish, Mr. Lento kept me informed on what to do, what my options were and what to expect. He didn’t provide me with any empty promises or false hope. And because this was my first time going through any legal matter, I had many questions because I was scared but Mr. Lento reassured me with have faith and confidence. Overall, if it wasn’t for his tenacity, honesty and knowledge, I don’t know if my outcome would have been successful. He protected my interest and I will forever be grateful. I will confidently recommend Mr. Lento to anyone who needs an attorney because he fights, believes and put his clients’ needs above everything. Also, he was the one that personally dealt with me--- no secretary or assistant. He is really a rare gem of an attorney and you will have a peace of mind and great guidance throughout whatever legal matter from him. So, don’t take my words for it, don’t hesitate and give him a call right away because you’ll be in good hands.

Attorney Lento was genuinely passionate about finding the absolute best outcome for the Title IX case I was involved in. He is very knowledgeable about about the process and willingly answered any and every question I had during his time working on the case with me. Most importantly he was able to he...lp me through a difficult time in my life and I am happy to say that everything turned out well. I highly recommend Mr. Lento.

STOP & HIRE MR. LENTO NOW. STOP DELAYING. STUDENTS, PARENTS ESPECIALLY. I am an engineering student at the largest university in NJ, (I assume it is the largest), and I faced a great deal of hardships through the Title IX process once accused where my clear and convincing evidences as well as witness...es were rejected for no reason. I was innocent! Without delving too much into the case, I will say that we had to file a complaint with the Dept of Ed OCR, and Mr. Lento reviewed about 210 pages of evidence and filed the complaint on my behalf. Protect your investment (college) and hire Mr. Lento now, before any hearing or process takes place, or even as it is taking place, HIRE MR. LENTO NOW. This makes the university understand that you are willing to protect your interests, otherwise you are in the losing battle.  I thought I could take on the school as I did nothing wrong and had SOLID proof. Nope, the university just did not care about what I said, thus having a lawyer makes all the difference. Even the staff appointed to helping you won't help you as Mr. LENTO will, why? Because they aren't attorneys and they will protect their employer (the University). Note, I paid for a consultation with Mr. Lento, his consultation is THE BEST, and if you're paying for it, you know his advice will be unique. Other Lawyers would brag about many awards (not mentioning names), and when I told them that the university rejected my evidence, they wouldn't take my case. Mr. Lento went straight in. And I love the fact that he uses emails promptly, he is fast, quick, and understanding. The reviews say it for themselves. Hire him now parents and students, for Title IX, Discrimination, school needs. You need a skilled attorney! Don't make the mistake I made!
