I can't say enough positive thoughts about Joseph. He is smart, tough, dedicated and truly a good person who cares. I interviewed a few different lawyers before I retained Joseph, and he always had a positive attitude, and was constantly brainstorming for the best way to present my case, so we could ultimately achieve the right results. Don't waste your time looking for another attorney....Joseph is the man that will get the job done!!

I must give much thanks to Joseph Hughes esq. I highly recommend Joseph Hughes as an outstanding highly recommend attorney. He has given our family peace of mind when needed, Handled our business without leaving us in worry. We are most thankful for his professionalism, ethics and prompt service handeling our case with 100% satisifaction. He is a number one attorney here in town and knows his law, highly recommend! Thank you Joseph Hughes, most thankful.

Working with Mr. Hughes was a great experience. He was extremely professional and thorough, was readily available, and really took charge of the case as though -- as one reviewer has mentioned -- it was his only case. I contacted him because, months after we moved out in good standing, our landlord had not responded to numerous requests to return our $3,600 security deposit. I was a little leery, because this out-of-state landlord can be arrogant. In addition, we had accidentally damaged some flooring and acknowledged we expected to forfeit some of the deposit. Our landlord was served Monday, April 30 and began negotiating with Mr. Hughes that same day. On May 1, we had a settlement, and on May 3, the agreed-upon amount was wired into our account (more than we expected to recover). After fees and costs, the landlord ended up spending more than the $3,600 he withheld, which we hope will improve his dealings with tenants in the future. Well done, Mr. Hughes!

My husband and I utilized his services for a landlord tenant dispute and were extremely pleased. Joseph Hughes is hard working, attentive, caring and well qualified. We highly recommend him!! Thank you for everything!!

I contacted Mr. Hughes in reference to a security deposit a landlord was trying to withhold. Me. Hughes was very knowledgeable, efficient and settled the dispute very quickly in my favor. I would definitely recommend him.

Professional and efficient. I contacted the firm to help me in a complex legal dispute. Attorney Joseph settled my case quickly and I got more of a settlement than I was expecting. I could tell he was working hard and my case moved along quickly. Highly recommend!!

I was fortunate to find Joseph through the AVVO Talk to a Lawyer service as I needed immediate advice on my landlord/tenant issue. Not only did Joseph provide excellent advice, but he went the extra mile to provide me with a critical document that saved me a lot of time and money! GREAT attorney and great service from AVVO. Thank you!!!

Joseph Hughes, was able to get me my Security Deposit back in less than five days. After I had been trying for two months. I am so great full, excellent service.

My wife and I had a dispute with a previous landlord regarding our security deposit. We contacted Joe to discuss the situation. Joe decided to represent us in our dispute with the landlord. From the very beginning, we were very impressed with Joe's knowledge of landlord/tenant law. The landlord failed to amicably settle the dispute so Joe represented us in a lawsuit against the landlord. To be honest, we knew an attorney like Joe would be a very busy person, so we didn't expect too much. But to our surprise, Joe handled our case like it was the ONLY case he had. The attention to detail, the preparation and the knowledge of the law he brought to the case was no less than remarkable. In the end, Joe won our case against the landlord. We had a landlord that was very intractable and seemed to not care about the fact that we had a very good case, so Joe took the case all the way to trial and won the case for us. All we really wanted was our security back but Joe managed to recover the security deposit as well as money that we spent as a result of the landlord forcing us to move prematurely. Bottom line, if you want an attorney that's going to vigorously defend your rights every step of the way, hire Joe. You'll be glad you did, particularly if you have a valid dispute with a landlord. And, unfortunately, there are a lot of landlords out there that have a blatant disregard for tenants rights. But you can rest assured that Joe will fight for you all the way to the end.

I contacted attorney Hughes to recover the depoit from my mom's landlady who refused to give it back in full, despite my mom being an 88 years old lady. Mr. Hughes was always available and willing to answer to my questions and calls. At the end he managed to recover the full amount of the security deposit and made the unfair landlady pay for his fees. I trully recommend Mr. Hughes as a great lawyer. Thank you Joe!

Joe helped me get my security deposit returned. After the landlord refused to cooperate with me, I hired Joe and he was able to have my deposit returned in full. Best of all, Joe was able to collect his fees from my landlord! I highly recommend his services to all my friends and family.

Mr. Hughes called me and said he would take my case Pro Bono. From the beginning he was sincere and sure of the case. I found him to be a strong spoken attorney and was comfortable with our conversation. Mr. Hughes had my attention and confidence that the outcome would work out fine. I put all my trust in him ,Being a Senior and Blind, I felt secure with him taking on the case for me. And it was Pro Bono, as I could not afford to pay a Attorney to represent me, and Mr. Hughes treated me just as if I was a paying client. I will recommend Mr. Hughes to any one that is needing a excellent Attorney. Mr. Hughes speaks with confidence ,interest, and to the point.
