Background

About Joseph Ward

I have been practicing law for nearly ten years, and managing my own practice for the last 7. I have managed the entire representation for my clients in over 30 jury trials, ranging from criminal, civil, to family law from opening argument to closing statement. I have been lead attorney on over 300 bench trials in civil and family law. Criminal defense has been my passion throughout my career, obtaining outcomes of dismissals, not guilty verdicts, and acceptable pleas for my clients. Seeking justice for those without a voice has always been a major reason for my becoming an attorney. Further, I have had major successes in civil law including employment disputes, employment discrimination, contract negotiations, breach of contracts, civil fraud, theft, and unconscionability cases. In my personal injuries cases I have represented clients from slip and falls to major tractor trailer accidents, yielding significant financial settlements. As a general practitioner for the entirety of my career I have significant experience in family law comprising CPS, adoptions, divorces, SAPCR, and custody cases.
