If you’re looking for a dedicated, sharp-witted attorney, look no further than Joseph Velez. He recently represented me in an unemployment appeal and was absolutely phenomenal. He caught the other side in several lies and effectively 'ripped their case to shreds.' He is worth every penny and then some. Five stars!
If i could leave a lower star than 1 i absolutely would. I literally called to ask questions regarding if he practices what i was trying to purse and he was so rude and unprofessional. I was on the phone with him for maybe 1 minute and had the most unpleasant experience. The good reviews must be fake. Stay far away.
I hired Mr. Velez in help with my PUA case and to review my appeals. He was well educated in Unemployment claims during the scamdemic and he saved me from essentially being $30,000 in debt. Although I hired him very last minute after I received my appeal packets he met with me on several occasions a week before my appeal for prep sessions in person and on zoom. The dedication he brings to his clients is unlike any other attorney I ever experienced. He truly cares and he’s amazing at what he does. I highly recommend Mr. Velez for any unemployment issues.
If I could give Mr Velez 10 stars I would. My wife claimed unemployment benefits around 2020 as many others did. 5 years later they decided she shouldn’t have received it and wanted all the money back. We called Mr Velez and he assisted us through the entire process, from dissecting all the paper work, the appeals, and finally the hearing which was resolved today. He met with my wife on several occasions before the hearing and then today got the case dismissed in front of a judge. Best money I’ve ever spent, thanks again for all your help!
Mr. Velez was thorough in his preparation for my case. His explanation of each step of the Unemployment Statutes I was facing was helpful in understanding what to expect which in turn eased some of my many anxieties.
I appreciated his being direct with the obstacles I could face with my particular situation. I also valued his sharing of the ways his past experiences have brought him successful results. Additionally, his elaborating on the tactics he may utilize on my behalf relative to my individual hurdles, added an extra level of understanding. I always felt I had a quality representative in Mr. Valez.
This issue took me completely by surprise and I feel very fortunate to have been represented by Mr. Valez. I was extremely satisfied with all of the ways Mr. Valez navigated and resolved this extremely upsetting process on my behalf.
I had the privilege of working with Joseph, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is incredibly intelligent, knowledgeable, and thorough in his approach. Joseph took the time to explain every aspect of my case, which helped me feel informed and at ease throughout the process. His reassurance and clear communication were invaluable, and he always responded promptly to any questions or concerns. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly cares about your case and provides exceptional service, Joseph is the best there is."
Mr. Velez is the type of attorney that can put you immediately at ease in an uneasy situation. He conveys a vast understanding of the law through a calm and well-articulated strategy that gets results. He offers a supportive and empathetic platform to glean the details that will assist him in achieving a favorable outcome. It doesn't have to be necessarily illegal to be monetizable and Mr. Velez knows how to find the value in each situation.
Needed an employment attorney fast, not only was Joseph quick to respond, but he listened to what I said, let me know before I even spent a dime if this was worth pursuing. He gave me options of routes to take and wasn’t trying to hustle me to make a buck. I’ve now refer him to anyone I hear looking for help with employment matters and he truly was the shark I needed. So grateful for his expertise and guidance.
Extremely unprofessional. I would assume most of 5 star reviews are fake it's pretty obvious. Joseph Velez is probably the most repulsive person I have ever encountered. The State Bar of Arizona suspended his license for three months and put him on two years probation for violation of his duties and obligations as a lawyer. Too many violations to list here. One was for overdraft from his Bank where Velez had his client trust account. It was found that Velez routinely deposited all monies received from clients into his trust account regardless of whether the funds were
earned and he deposited personal funds into
the trust account on several occasions. Velez failed to maintain complete trust account records for a period of five years and did not maintain individual client ledgers or the equivalent. Joseph Velez failed to record all transactions promptly and completely, failed
to perform monthly reconciliations of the trust account and failed to consistently disburse from his trust account with only prenumbered checks. Mr. Velez also failed to properly safeguard client funds that resulted in negligent conversion of those funds
Mr. Velez is a very respectful attorney
I really appreciate for his help. He is treating not like a client but a family. He is a great men and very knowledgeable in law. He is very experienced attorney. I am giving him more than 5 stars.
Mr. Velez really saved me a lot of financial hardship and struggling over the next however many years. Like many others, I received PUA from the state of AZ during the pandemic. The state decided to come after me 4 YEARS later for the full amount they paid me. I appealed the determination and waited til they put me on the calendar to have a hearing, thinking I could go into this alone. Then I received the hearing packets. I would have been completely LOST without Mr. Velez’s knowledge and experience in handling matters like this. We had many prep sessions, going over the case and preparing for the hearing. Turns out, with his help, the case was decided in my favor. Without his help, I truly believe I would NOT have had the same outcome. He was honest, trustworthy, diligent, and very experienced. If you find yourself in a similar situation, or any employment related matters, trust the knowledge and experience of attorney Mr. Joseph Velez. I guarantee you will have made the right choice!
Joseph was very helpful in my case and I was able to achieve a favorable outcome. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and I would not have been able to win without him. I would recommend him for anyone needing an attorney in their corner.
