Joe did a great job defending me in my case. It was obvious he believed in me personally by negotiating a discount on my bond after I was taken to jail. He and his team were there to comfort and guide my parents while I was in jail. They answered all of our questions. And his paralegal Sarah was always just a phone call or email away if I had a concern. Ultimately Joe got me a deal with the local prosecutor that will allow me to move on with my life. Thank you Joe for your expertise and hard work.

Joe worked tirelessly on my case. He was able to secure an outcome even more favorable than I could have hoped to receive. He is fierce in the courtroom, and he is not hesitant to advocate and pursue that which is right. I’m grateful for what he and the team did for me, and I would recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation.

Joe Passanise was the reason our son got the outcome he did. Joe and his team worked tirelessly for nearly five years. It was a very complicated case but he saw it through with professionalism and expert attention to detail. Can’t say enough good things. We are grateful.

I was going to be charged with 8 felonies as a first time offender and after doing some research I decided to hire Joe to represent me on this matter. He handled my case very professionally, kept me up to date on what was going on, and was able to get a deferred prosecution!! I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a criminal attorney because he has the client's best interest at heart and is an amazing attorney to have on your side.

Joe was upfront with me the first time we met to discuss my case. He explained to me the worst possible outcome and the best possible outcome. Most importantly, he explained to me how he would represent me as my attorney to achieve that best outcome. Joe worked my case and kept me informed as it proceeded through the court. In the end, thanks to Joe, my case was resolved in a positive manner without going to trial.

Had Joe and Dee both represent me in court. Wish I would have contacted them in the first place to handle my cases(s), it is hard to describe how much they differ from another law firm. They hold themselves in a higher regard and you can tell when you walk into the courtroom. Pricing was very reasonable as well, so don't think just because they're a high quality law firm that they're out of your price range. Give them a shot, you wont regret it! Lifetime client right here, if needing representation.

Joe and his staff could not be more professional, and I am very pleased with his representation. If you need an attorney he is the one. I believe no other attorney in the area would have achieved the same results. So hire the best!

Joe has mislead and misrepresented me through my entire case. I would request they do depositions with my witnesses fouls certain emotions and stop pushing off my court dates. And all I ever got was pushed back court dates and when I did go to court I feel as if he didn’t represent me and then after each court date and I will get us another bill in the mail and this has went on since 2016 and up until the current day I was reincarcerated a couple months ago and instead of Joe fighting the case he decided that he would drop me as a client out of the blue after being paid almost $45,000 and only pushing of court dates from 2016 up in to the current date. Joe never represented on any of my cases, he’s always pushed my court dates off. Up until today all of the cases I’ve hired Joe on hasn’t been settled and are still pending. I haven’t be funded or anything . I’ve paid Joe more than enough this for in order for him to have been completed some of my cases. So, this complaint is being filed off the Strength that I have paid over $45,000 to this attorney and I have not been given what I have paid for I have not been represented I’ve only been mis- lead and misrepresented and all of my court dates have been pushed off and none of my cases have been settled. This firm will take all of your money and then drop you and never settle your case/s.

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.
