Joseph and his team are incredible. I was dealing with a long distance divorce/custody case, with homeschooled children. I'd had a couple of attorneys, only one of whom actually helped, but then things seemed to fall apart. I needed to make some changes because my children were not doing well.
Our plan hadn't been finalized yet, so time was of the essence.
A few other mommas, in a similar situation, recommended Joe. I consulted with a few attorneys, but none of them were willing to really listen. All of them left me feeling hopeless and very triggered. After years of psychological and emotional abuse, I wasn't in a place to be able to handle those types of attorneys.
Joe was different. He was careful, calm, kind, and compassionate, but still straightforward with no b.s. I felt safe. I think that's what all of us want, really. Joe stayed in communication with me. He didn't leave me hanging. He kept me informed, answered every question, and was patient through all of it. He didn't yell at me (yeah, that has happened before). He helped me see things that needed to be seen and understand from better perspectives.
It was a bonus that we saw eye to eye on some things and I didn't feel like I had to defend myself to him.
We were able to come up with a new plan that kept the children's best interests as the top priority and avoid going to trial.
I'm truly grateful and blessed. God put him in my path right when I needed it most.
I have given his information to several mommas who are in need of help, and will continue to do so.

Thanks to Joe and his team they helped me reach an agreement without going to court. They led and held my hand the whole way in a very scary and emotional situation. He has great communication and I felt like he really saw and heard me. I know they are very busy but he was always very up to date on my case like it was the only one. I would recommend this team for my friends and family’s and anyones’s family law needs.

Mr. Alvarez and his team did a fantastic job with my custody modification case and thanks to him I was able to reach an agreement that was better than our best day in court. He made the emotional and stressful process easy to grasp thanks to his kind and compassionate demeanor. I know he’s busy but I always felt like I was his only client! He was always up to date with my case and always a step ahead. I also felt like he had my family’s best interests at heart-High recommend him for all your family law needs!

I truly don't even know where to begin, finding Mr. Joseph Alvarez was more than a blessing. He saved my life and my babies' lives. He believed in me and gave me hopes from the very first meeting, when over eleven other attorneys told me to get comfortable with the idea of a certain outcome, one that I wasn't willing to settle for. My kids deserved better. Mr Alvarez was honest, direct, kind and you would have thought it was your brother fighting for your life. If you think your case is difficult and you've heard many "no's" just give this firm a chance to prove them wrong. I owe Mr. Joe so much, he not only won my case and got me more than what I wanted, but he got my kids and I the peace of mind that I will never be able to truly repay. I can probably sit here and talk for hours about how wonderful, professional, and talented Mr. Joe and this law firm are. You will not regret your decision to go with them! Don't let bullies get you scared, you can do this and you will come out successful. Thank you Mr. Joe, from the bottom of my heart, forever grateful that I found you.

Joe worked with me on my divorce settlement. Very excellent experience! If you need a straight shooter to go to bat for you, Joe is the right guy. Fair and conscientious with time and fees.

I hired Mr. Alvarez as my divorce attorney. My case was complicated. Mr. Alvarez understood when I told him that I needed to take time and settle other legal issues that I was involved with my ex-husband and our business. He made sure that settling other legal issues were included in our divorce agreement. And when I was ready to settle, he acted very fast and professional. He is a great lawyer and has a big heart. Even after my divorce is over, he always responds to my emails if I have any questions.

Mr. Joseph Alvarez was the legal assistance to my opponent in a lawsuit. Now this May come unexpected but I would recommend this law firm anyways from what I have seen they are well prepared in their documentation of their case, they seem to have their clients always briefed on everything they do in their case and quite frankly they do know what they are doing.

Mr. Alvarez represented me during my divorce case and was amazing. Very professional and understanding. Mr Alvarez was very knowledgeable and understanding during the consultation and asked that I email him with any questions I might have after the consultation ended which relieved a lot of my worries. He kept me updated with all of the necessary paperwork and filings required as well as mediation. He was very thorough during the mediation process while also treating me with compassion during such a hard time. I would absolutely recommend Mr Alvarez to anyone needing legal representation.

Initial Consultation I knew Joe, was God sent to me my emotions were off the chart and during our conversation I felt peace a of mind. His professionalism was very confident I knew at that moment I was in good hands. During the process of my divorce, he was always reassuring with a compassionate spirit. He's always smiling even over the phone you feel the smile. Very pleasant courteous and prompt on time of every and anything during the completion of my divorce. My initial contact was in March 2021 and my mediation completion was in August 2021., CFJ February 2022. I felt so much Joy!!! he's always on the case. You find far and few Attorneys like Joe Alvarez, words just cannot say enough. Thank You Joe, and your entire Staff for going above and beyond for my future. Sincerely Melanie D. Roberts

I was going thru a divorce and was struggling deeply. I had paid a lawyer for help with my divorce and had that lawyer take my money and run. I was in a deep hole at this point. Joseph Alvarez was such a blessing to find. He contacted me after I found his law firm and made my life so much easier. He said and I quote "I want you to live life without worry of this divorce, you're in good hands." He could not have been more right, he made my divorce, which seemed like an absolute nightmare, seem like it was nothing to worry about at all. He took care of everything and made the process so simple, easy, and care free. Thank you so much Joseph Alvarez! If you're looking for a divorce lawyer, look no further and hire Joseph Alan Alvarez!

I highly recommend Joe Alvarez, while going through my case he was very understanding and made me feel at ease during the whole process. He was able to get my case dismissed, the case went just the way he stated from the beginning. He made me feel very confident during the whole case. He was very knowledgeable about family case law. If I have to use a lawyer in the future, I will be going back to him and I would recommend him to all my family and friends and I believe that is the best endorsement I can give to someone.

Joe came highly recommended and proved to be an absolute Godsend. He's professional, highly knowledgeable and trustworthy. I was very impressed with his dedication to my case. His kind manner, understanding, attention to detail and willingness to explain helped keep me calm through a very contentious divorce. He kept me updated through every step of the process and readily responded to every question I had. His legal assistant, Stacey was also a joy to work with. I couldn't have chosen better and will forever be grateful for Joe and Zisser Family Law.
