Charles Joseph represented me in a successful claim of sexual harassment and retaliation in employment. From our first meeting, he proved to be an empathetic listener and an excellent counselor. It meant a lot to me to have an attorney who believed in me at a time when reports of sexual harassment were often met with skepticism and victim-blaming. Throughout the legal proceedings, he was a passionate advocate for me. Charles led the team who secured a very satisfactory settlement package, which helped to restore my dignity and allowed me to move on with my life.

Charles is a wonderful attorney who has helped me enormously. A lawyer with a decidedly intellectual bent, he is able to formulate case strategy and then pursue the goals doggedly and, ultimately, to great success. I feel absolutely confident that Charles will fight for you and would recommend him to absolutely everyone!

Charles Joseph is above all a decent, caring and wonderful human being. His approach to a client's problem extends beyond legal into a personal touch that I have not seen in other legal representation. I feel comfortable, cared for, and confident. He leaves no doubts in the end that we are pursuing the best course of action. I end my consults with him feeling like a more successful person, as well!

Over the past 20 years, Charles has helped me work through countless deals, disputes, strategic decisions and complex situations. Charles has an amazing brain. He can often anticipate what I'm going to say long before I actually say it. His raw intellectual power, combined with his excellent communication skills, common sense and good judgement, creativity, tenacity and perseverance has helped me solve many problems, surmount many obstacles and resolve many issues and disputes. Charles is one of the best and brightest lawyers that I have worked with. A true professional, dedicated to his service and delivering successful outcomes for his clients. It is always an absolute pleasure working with Charles.

Charles Joseph is an exceptional attorney! He is extremely professional, knowledgeable and highly responsive to the needs of his clientele. Charles has been my attorney for several years, and I can count on him for the best advice, or timely referral's to associates should it be required. He is definitely focused on the needs of his clients...and that is why I have no hesitation to recommend him to friends, family members and any others. Top Notch! Call him...retain him!

Charles took the time to speak with me and provide insight and guidance. It was a pleasure to have someone be responsive to questions and helpful in providing useful information. Charles went out of his way to be supportive and provided a recommendation for my needs.

Charles Joseph is a smart and skilled attorney who will fight for your rights. He is the kind of attorney who does not leave work at the office...he continually thinks about and works on your case. If you feel like you are just one individual fighting against a large corporation, Charles will be by your side to help you state your case and WIN. Not only does he have a sharp legal mind, but he is also compassionate and makes sure that his clients are happy personally and professionally. While I hope that I do not require his services again, if I need an employment attorney, Charles Joseph will be the FIRST person that I call. His advice is priceless. (And he helps keep you smiling through the hardest of times.)

Charles Joseph is a passionate advocate who skillfully pursued my employment claim to a very successful conclusion. In addition, he was always a compassionate counselor who provided emotional support throughout the process, always taking the time to really listen to my concerns and questions. I truly feel that he put my best interest at the forefront. At mediation, he was a knowledgeable and strong advocate as well as a great encouragement to me. There is nobody I’d rather have on my side!

Mr. Joseph is very knowledgeable, analytical, intuitive & resourceful. While taking extensive time to thoroughly learn & evaluate my case, he recognized me as an individual without making generalizations or taking shortcuts to risk success on my behalf. I appreciate that he is very well informed of employment law yet still confirms his initial hypotheses to ensure accuracy & strength of his position & arguments. In addition, he became fluent in the employment policies of this particular company & consulted with the lawyers, HR department & administrators to achieve the best resolution of my case. I highly recommend Mr. Joseph as an attorney for cases of employment discrimination & labor law.
