Joe has been practicing injury law for over 31 years in the Hampton Roads, Virginia area. He is admitted to practice law in both Virginia and North Carolina. He has also successfully represented injured victims on a ‘pro hac vice’ basis in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Maryland, and Florida. Joe earned his B.A. at Emory University in Atlanta, GA, in 1984. He is a graduate of the Marshall-Wythe School of Law at William & Mary, where he received his Juris Doctor degree in 1987. Joe was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., but he has spent most of his life in the Hampton Roads area, having grown up in the Churchland area of Portsmouth and the Western Branch area of Chesapeake. He graduated from Western Branch High School in 1980. He currently resides in Norfolk, VA with his wife, two daughters, and their Australian Shepard, ‘Luna’ Outside of law practice, Joe enjoys engaging in religious studies, playing guitar, writing and recording music in his music studio, mountain biking, snow skiing, and just spending time with his family at home. Joe says his favorite part of practicing law is, “when it is crystal clear that the client you are helping is in dire need of your services. You realize that if the two of you had not been brought together, this person would likely be making choices that would have severe adverse consequences for him or her. It feels really good when you can present an injured client with advice and a plan of action that puts him or her on the right path to a successful future, a new start, and financial security. Just knowing that the client is sleeping better at night—with fewer clouds of worry and doubt that were there before you came along— that helps me sleep better as well."

I strongly believe that if you are accused of a DUI/DWI, you deserve the best representation possible. This includes having an attorney who knows every aspect of the law, the technology, and the science involved in a DUI/DWI, who will aggressively defend your case, and who truly cares about you. I have attended DUI/DWI seminars across the country now since 1998 when I first realized how complicated a DUI/DWI case can be. I have taken numerous breath test courses and am a certified operator on three separate breath test machines including the ECIRII. In fact, I am one of only a handful attorneys in all of Virginia certified as an operator on the ECIRII. I also have a technician certification on the Intoxilyzer 5000. I have personally held ECIRII breath test seminars in Virginia on two separate occasions. I had attorneys from eight states attend my seminars as well as Judges from here in Virginia. I invited the leading experts in the country to speak. Besides my expertise in breath testing, I have taken and passed the same NHTSA Field Sobriety Course that our police officers have to take. I also have attended numerous courses on blood testing for both drugs and alcohol. You never stop learning, so I continue to attend two to four seminars across the country every year to keep up with the latest techniques and strategies for fighting DUI/DWI cases. Due to my focus and training in the area of DUI/DWI defense I was honored to be selected out of all the attorneys in Virginia to write the book for lawyers. This is a tremendous honor to be recognized by West Publishing as the lawyer in Virginia with the expertise and experience to write the text book for lawyers and Judges. Honestly it is one of the highlights of my career. Besides having the knowledge necessary to give you the best representation possible, I think my empathy and concern for you is something else that sets me apart from a lot of lawyers out there. Jeff and I both truly care about people and want to help them. It is the reason I became a lawyer, so I could help people. I have faith in our constitution, and fight to protect the rights given to us by our founding fathers. I have given talks on DUI/DWI exceptions to our Constitution. I stole the speech from Larry Taylor who is one of the Godfather’s of modern day DUI/DWI defense. It is a great speech! As a DUI/DWI attorney, I truly am on the front lines of protecting our Constitutional rights. People say “oh he got off on a technicality.” Really what they should say is, “his lawyer protected all of our Constitutional rights, by ensuring the government didn’t get away with something they should not have done!”
