LAW IN THE NEWS

Jim Booth9/27/2024
Honest, hardworking knowledgeable lawyer I have used Mr. Morelli as an attorney for several years now, as I know whenever I have a legal matter that this is the man to turn to. He has helped me when I got into a car accident in Sep 08' and again when I sold my business earlier this year. Both instances were very positive, as when you actually talk to Mr. Morelli you see that his knowledge and understanding of the law is enormously vast. Most importantly he treats his clients with the utmost respect and humanity, something that is rare to find these days and for I give him an A+

Moral Character Application Robin did a hellava job! She was conscientious & thorough. But above all she was pragmatic. She counseled patience, while deftly navigating my application through the State Bar's Byzantium process. I cannot think of a more sure-handed lawyer in this specialty.

Whole New Battleground When the Bar reaches out, you wonder if you should just give the Bar everything as you have nothing to hide. Then you realize this is NOT your specialty. This is a whole new battleground and you don't know the rules. You do not use a dentist for heart surgery. I am so glad I reached out to Erin Joyce Law. Everyone there was professional. They made sure I didn't miss deadlines. When you want to make sure there are no mistakes and the matter can be resolved quickly, you want the best. This is the only firm I would recommend.
