About
Joseph J. Blata was raised in the small town of Skidway Lake, Michigan by a middle-class family of blue collar General Motors workers. After graduating from Whittemore-Prescott High School, he moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he obtained a Bachelor’s Degree with a double major in English and Psychology. Not quite sure if he wanted to be a psychiatrist, attorney, or something else at that point, Joe (or Joey to his longtime friends) entered the workforce in metro Detroit for 2 years. Still unsatisfied, he attended Central Michigan University for 2 years, studying pre-medicine and enhancing his psychology degree. It was at this point he decided he wanted to be an attorney, so Joe obtained his Law Degree at Michigan State College of Law (though he is still a Wolverine at heart).Much of Joe’s success in family law, license appeals, and criminal defense, stems from his ability to understand human behavior and his no-nonsense approach. If you want an attorney who can delve into the deeper issues, and be upfront about them, then Joe will be happy to help.

My case is still winding through the system but I’ve put all my faith in Mr. Blata after meeting with several other attorneys. He listened well and attentively to my concerns and history. Even taking time out of his day, twice, when I arrived unannounced to talk with me. I’ve been very impressed by his professionalism, knowledge of the law, and is honest responses to my queries. I’ll update this post after a resolution of my case but so far so good.
Hired to help deal with OWI case. Was friendly at first, but later on dismissive and sexist towards family members that showed up in court to help support me. Offered next to no help dealing with case and did not provide information on how to proceed after case closed, such as paying off Driver Responsibility Fees. Helped next to no way in getting any sort of reasonable plea from court. Was not even helpful in getting mandatory EGT testing frequency reduced to something more fitting of the crime. Spent most of time waiting for hearing on phone as opposed to talking to me. Generally unhelpful. Would recommend use of other lawyers over him.
Worst lawyer I've ever had. Very unprofessional and rude. He scheduled my hearing in Saginaw to convenience him, I live in Isabella county which is where it should have been. Rude from start to finish and the other reviews of him are accurate and he treated me the same way. Will not use again or recommend to anyone else
