My experience with Joe is that he is probably the most experienced lawyer I have ever met. He is extremely smart and very honest. I would reccomend him to anyone that is looking for an attorney. He is the kind of person that will always be honest with you regardless of what you want to hear. He has helped my family and I tremendously over the years and anyone would be lucky to get him to accept you as a client. I really can not say enough about how sharp he is. He has worked for me in both a litigation setting and with real estate law. He is amazing as a litigator. It was almost like watching a TV Show. You could really tell how he completely commanded the attention of all in the Jury and how they were really mesmorized by how sharp of an attorney he is. When the other attorney spoke no one really paid as much attention as to when Joe spoke everyone was attentively listening. I have much to thank for being able to have him handle my family and I as clients.
