His dedication to clients and detailed preparation has led him to try many cases to a successful verdict in favor of his clients and he continues to do so.
However, trials are not the only venue for a favorable resolution and, for those clients, Joe works extremely hard to achieve a favorable result for them without a trial. Mr. Patsko, if asked, would say that his greatest achievement comes from just helping clients. Joe is driven to achieve the best result for each client without exception. He has represented individuals, companies, both small and large, and insurance companies on both first and third party matters.
