I hired Joe to represent me in a real estate case regarding an improperly completed Seller's Disclosure Statement on a home that I recently purchased. I owned an uninhabitable home and had nowhere to turn.
I reached out to Joe who provided a consultation and outlined my options. I decided to move forward with his services and in working with him quickly realized he 1) has a great sense of how to approach both sides of an issue based on his litigation experience, 2) is well versed in all aspects of real estate law along with being a licensed realtor, and 3) could provide trusted, rational advice that made me feel comfortable about my decision to pursue the sellers for compensation.
Long story short we ended everything through a very amicable, quick, and efficient mediation process proposed by Joe who is also a mediator himself.
Joe will bend over backwards to find ways for YOU the client to save money, which I greatly appreciated. I feel that his rate was more than fair given the amount of work that he did vs. the mounting costs I was facing on the house. As the title states I believe that the end settlement represented what I would have likely achieved in court, without the financial expense or the likely long drawn-out timeline of a standard court case. Joe's background and ability were the key factors in driving my success with this case, and I would recommend him without hesitation.

Mr. Doerr was extremely helpful. Not only was my accident not out on my permanent record, but I also did not have to appear in court.

Joe helped me come to a swift resolution in a landlord-tenant matter that I faced during a really stressful and uncertain time in my life. Though the cards were stacked against me, he treated me with respect and showed a genuine desire to advance my position and help me obtain a favorable outcome.
Joe was quick to review my file and to communicate a strategy and plan for moving forward. He updated me frequently and was prompt to respond to my questions and messages.
Joe was highly knowledgeable on the applicable law in Michigan. He advised opposing counsel of a case that was directly on point, and in my favor, and helped me to gain some leverage in difficult settlement negotiations. He was also thorough. Thanks to Joe’s attention to detail, he uncovered a fact buried in my records that ultimately saved me thousands of dollars.
He fought for me against unreasonable and unscrupulous counsel, while maintaining respect and decorum. He went to bat for me without turning my case into a circus or unnecessarily driving up legal fees. Even when the case was over, he was diligent and thoughtful in his follow-up.
If you are looking for a top-notch, experienced attorney who will handle your case personally from start to finish, I highly recommend Joe. In my experience, it has been nearly impossible to find a good attorney who you actually like as a person and who treats you like you are more than the sum of your fees. I found this in Joe, and I am so thankful.

Joe came highly recommended to me to handle a dispute arising out of the right to Airbnb a rental property. He quickly ascertained the facts of the case, made a plan (and even some backups!), and swiftly and adeptly went to the business of shutting down the dispute. Not only did he help me win the case (against a notorious slumlord under federal investigation), he also graciously negotiated a very unexpected and favorable settlement for me.
This was an extremely stressful dispute and I was not always my best self, and Joe took everything in stride. He reassured me every step of the way, outmaneuvering and outlawyering the other side in every interaction. His fees were exceedingly fair as well.
Joe has my wholehearted recommendation. He's quickly establishing himself an expert in the homesharing economy and his expertise and professionalism in this space are simply unparalleled. Should the need arise, I'd hire him again in a second and think you should jump at the chance too!

This is the first time we hired Joe Doerr. With a very limited amount of time Joe won our Federal court battle. His court documents and filings are top notch. He argued in court against multiple law firms, while displaying authority. Finally he brokered a deal that was a major win for our company. Then he followed up by insuring court and closing documents were accurate. In general, having Joe Doerr on your team is highly advantageous.
