5.0 out of 5 stars

Joe is hands down the best attorney I have ever had to deal with. He is caring and makes sure to explain things in a manner that isn’t loaded w legal jargon. I’ve heard from so many friends and family that their attorney does whatever it takes to make a dollar. Joe is not like that. He even puts things in perspective that would benefit you and not him making more money. He is more than fair and fights for what is right. He also makes sure to counsel on appropriate things to do so that if you have to go in front of a judge you have your best foot forward! Thank you Joe.

If you're looking for legal representation, it's crucial to choose a firm that not only understands the law but also respects the rights and dignity of all individuals involved in legal proceedings. Unfortunately, my experience with Turken & Porzenski and specifically Mr. Porzenski, did not meet these basic expectations. Despite the firm’s reputable appearance, the conduct of some of its representatives, particularly in our case, has been less than professional. The approach taken has often felt more combative than constructive, with a surprising disregard for clear communication and fairness, especially towards those not directly involved in the litigation. One might expect a law firm of this stature to uphold the highest standards of legal ethics and professionalism. However, our interactions have been marred by unnecessary legal maneuvers that seemed designed to intimidate rather than to resolve the actual matters at hand. Legal representation should involve clear communication, respect for all parties, and a commitment to resolving disputes fairly and ethically. Based on my experience, I would urge potential clients to carefully consider these qualities when choosing legal representation, as they are as important as any legal expertise a firm might offer.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
