Mr. Serpa is amazing! I’m very grateful for his work. I found him via Google; I had spoke with numerous attorney’s but, once I spoke to him, I knew he was the one! He communicates, he is calm, he is assertive, he is knowledgeable, and networks well. Which certainly matter! What he did for me, was not what I could’ve ever foreseen happening. He was very forthcoming with me from the beginning; but, he also showed confidence in what he was doing, and that allowed me to trust him. I didn’t feel judged. And I’m grateful for him and, will be for the rest of my life. I’m appreciative of his words, that he shared with me after. I would highly recommend him!

Joe Serpa did an extraordinary job while representing me. He had just two days of preparation due to my short notice and represented me flawlessly. His court room demeanor will go a long way in any case! After speaking with him during our consultation I felt confident, safe, and reassured that he would deliver me the best outcome, and he did. I was granted the restraining order I asked for under tumultuous circumstances, and today I have peace of mind. Not only did he represent me well, but he is professional and treats all of his clients with respect and true kindness.

Joe took my case seriously and had me out of hot water quickly. Serious felony and I am completely exonerated.

I want to take this opportunity to publicly express my gratitude to Attorney Joe Serpa. I found myself researching attorneys for a family member and saw among others Attorney Serpa here on Thumbtack. I read all the info provided on his site, did some personal research and decided he was the attorney that could best meet our needs. I am very happy that I did for a variety of reasons.Upon consulting with him I immediately felt at ease and knew I made the right decision to go with him to represent my family member. He made us feel comfortable, answered all our questions, was straight forward with us and did not offer any empty guarantees or promises. He immediately told us to call him Joe,provided me with his prices, gave us his personal cell# and gave me all the information we needed to make our decision in regards to how we wanted to go forward with our case. Throughout the entire process he was always available and kept us informed of all proceedings. He also made sure we understood each aspect of the case and court rulings and was always well prepared. After about 5 months into the case he let us know on the last court date that the case got dismissed! What a relief to us all and then just today informed us that the last motion that he presented was granted! Again a win! Thanks to his diligent efforts throughout this entire process, I say with much conviction that he truly is an extraordinary attorney, but more importantly an extraordinary and genuine person. He calmed our fears and instilled a sense of relief during this process which I can honestly say was needed.I knew we made the right decision from the start. His honesty,his professionalism and his responsiveness to all our needs were met on every level and I truly am impressed with his work. I am grateful to him and am so glad we chose him to walk us through this difficult time. He is a true professional in every aspect and we are eternally indebted to him. Thank you Joe for all your work, assistance and for winning our case! Teresa R. and family

This was by far the best legal experience one could hope for! Attorney Serpa was diligent in responding to my needs. When you ask him a question his responses and thoughts are expressed in a very clear and concise manner. He prevented a life changing event from negatively impacting my life. If you have any criminal issues, problems or charges or anything, you really should call Joe Serpa. He is one of the few attorneys’ that I know who will give you their cell phone number and take calls and text at any hour day or night. Thank you Joe!

I have a PhD in Electrical Engineering. I was arrested and falsely accused of domestic A&B after I called the police to protect me. My first lawyer gave me wrong advise and made the situation worse. Joe Serpa came to the rescue and talked to the complainant. With one phone call Joe got her to co-operate again to get my case dismissed. If you have any criminal issues, problems or charges, I can bet Joe Serpa will solve them for you and get the result in your favour. My hats off to Joe Serpa's expertise, experience and understanding beyond the limitations of pure legalistic interpretation of the criminal law. I highly recommend Joe Serpa as an excellent Lawyer.

Joe was really ahead of the game with my case. He predicted three possible outcomes for it and worked to achieve the best of the three possible outcomes. Joe worked tirelessly to understand me as a person and hold up that image in the court room and when speaking to members of the court. He was ambitious and fought hard to get me cleared. He reached the best possible outcome for my case and I was let free of charges because of his hard work and focus on the case. We persevered and made it to the end of the case with no issues and I couldn't be more relieved with the results. I'm so grateful for the work he did following hiring him.

My experience with Attorney Serpa was wonderful! He represented me in two different cases and was impressive to say the least. Always a phone call or text message away. Confident and aggressive when he needed to be. Calming and thorough when meeting with me. Attentive to detail. Both of my cases ended in dismissals thanks to the help of Attorney Serpa. Without any hesitation, I would recommend Attorney Serpa to anyone who needs a GOOD lawyer because he is the best!
