Hired Attorney Joseph A. Alvarez

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, he can do this for you!

Hired Attorney Joseph A. Alvarez

Joseph is top notch, very well respected and works for the top law group in Jacksonville. He consistency outmatches his competition in the process. Most lawyers can't provide the daily communication as he does. He's meant a lot to me over the years and has always saw the bright side of things. Dealing with a very hatred ex-wife is extremely difficult with raising a child. He has the knowledge, experience, and guidance. He is very fair with cost as well. He's a true value as well!

Hired Attorney Joseph A. Alvarez

Joseph Alvarez has been a savior for my divorce and dealing with my extremely difficult and unreasonable ex-wife. I have been through a few lawyers and was not getting the assistance I needed. That ended when I was recommended to visit the Zisser law firm as I knew that was one of the top firms in Jacksonville for family law. His best quality is what another lawyers struggle with.... Communication. He understands that's and always has the child's best interest. He is highly recommended.
