In 2009, Mr. Burke was co-counsel with the Locks Law Firm who filed a Class Action law suit on behalf of a policyholder and a class of 21st Century standard automobile policyholders who purchased automobile liability policies with PIP medical expense coverage limits of less than $250,000. The matter was approved for final settlement on July 16, 2012 by the Hon. Jerome Simandle, USDC. As a result of this lawsuit, Defendants’ had instituted changes in their policies and practices with regard to obtaining Coverage Selection Forms from their insureds, and had taken remedial steps by reforming policies up to $250,000 in PIP coverage where PIP claims where open. Defendants changed practices regarding obtaining CSFs during renewal of existing policyholders where PIP coverage was indicated at less than $250,000. As a result of Plaintiff’s lawsuit, 21st Century reformed PIP coverage in 4,298 active policies to $250,000 (the majority which were previously set at $15,000), thereby providing approximately $1.1 billion in additional PIP coverage under such policies to New Jersey motorists In addition, regarding actual claims filed, as a result of this lawsuit, 21st Century reformed PIP coverage to $250,000 in 561 “open” claim files thereby affording such claimants over $100 million in additional potential PIP coverage for their claims.. Mr. Burke has successfully represented more than seventy homeowners in predatory lending cases against national banks, mortgage brokers and others. In some of the cases, homeowners were given false documents about the terms of their mortgages and misleading promises. Mr. Burke has pursued claims under the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, and New Jersey’s Consumer Fraud Act among other laws.. Recently, Mr. Burke recovered $475,000. for the family of a prisoner who died while in custody. The family claimed that the prisoner who had serious health problems was negligently transported causing him to fall and sustain serious internal injuries. The family claimed that the law enforcement personnel denied the prisoner adequate medical care, which caused his death. The defendants denied any wrongdoing, but settled the case before trial.. Mr. Burke obtained a $750,000. settlement for a nineteen year old woman who was significantly injured in a motor vehicle accident. The young lady sustained herniated discs in her lower back and in her neck and a jaw (TMJ) injury. She underwent back surgery about two years after the accident as well as arthroscopic surgery for her jaw. The insurance carrier for the other driver contested that her injuries were related to the motor vehicle accident. The case arbitrated for the said amount which was  paid by the insurance company.. Mr. Burke settled a case for a young woman who sustained a broken ankle in a motor vehicle accident when another driver cut her off causing her to crash into a guardrail. The other driver fled the scene of the accident. The young woman was taken to the hospital and underwent surgery inserting screws and a plate in her ankle. After the accident, she developed a pulmonary embolism which required her to take blood thinner medication for about eighteen months. The driver of the other vehicle denied that he was involved in the accident and claimed that he was not even in the area at the time. His insurance company offered no money to settle the case before the lawsuit was filed and stood by their insured’s version of the accident. Our firm’s investigator tracked down a witness who saw the accident. Mr. Burke conducted a videotaped deposition of that witness thus preserving it for trial. Mr. burke then obtained EZ-Pass records of the Defendant driver which showed that he was in the area around the time of the accident. The case settled a week before trial for $247,500. which was paid by the insurance company which initially offered no money.. Mr. Burke won a jury verdict for an injured client, a United States Marshall Officer, who fell and sustained a non-displaced broken ankle while transporting a prisoner through a parking lot. We contended that the owner negligently maintained the area of the parking lot where Plaintiff fell on an uneven surface. The Plaintiff wore a cast for six weeks and then underwent physical therapy to help rehabilitate the ankle. Evidence was presented at trial that the injuries impeded the Plaintiff from engaging in rigorous physical activity, including special training in the United States Army Reserve. The jury award him $48,400.. Mr. Burke has successfully won trials in the Chancery Court defending home owners facing foreclosure with the end goal of allowing homeowners to keep their homes.

Personal Injury – Construction Accidents – Asbestos Exposure – Worker’s Compensation – Civil Rights – Criminal Defense. Results:. Mr. Bustillo obtained a $1.5 million settlement for an elderly man battling a life threatening illness, who had been abandoned by his wealthy son after a bitter family feud. Plaintiff, who had no independent means of support, was facing eviction from his home. After reviewing some financial documents, Mr. Bustillo found that Plaintiff’s son had signed a document stating that a portion of his money belonged to his father. Recognizing that the son had executed a “deed of gift,” Mr. Bustillo filed an emergency petition with the court and convinced the court to order the son to support the father financially pending the outcome of the litigation. Thanks to the emergency relief obtained from the court, the father was able to move back into his apartment and assert his rights to a portion of the money. After a court battle that latest almost two years, the father walked away with just over $1.5 million in time payments.. Recently, Mr. Bustillo obtained lifetime worker’s compensation disability benefits for a truck driver who had injured himself on the job. The truck driver was loading a pickup truck on top of a vehicle transport rig when his foot slipped off the brake, causing the pickup truck to fall off of the rig with the driver inside. The driver fractured two vertebrae and underwent three back surgeries. Due to the driver’s age, 42 at the time, the worker’s compensation insurance carrier resisted paying full disability benefits, arguing that the driver could be retrained. By obtaining expert reports from numerous doctors and vocational specialists, Mr. Bustillo was able to demonstrate that the truck driver would not be able to work again. As a result, the driver has been receiving benefits starting at 300 per week and increasing to $629. per week for the rest of his life.

I was born in Pakistan and raised in Saudi Arabia. Like many foreign-born parents, my parents sacrificed much to prepare my siblings and me for an education that would promise a future in America. I graduated from college and law school in the United States. Because I benefitted so personally from the promises of immigration, I attended law school with the intention of becoming an immigration lawyer. One of my chief motivators is the awareness that while each of my family members pursued a different immigration path to this country, some found their journey easier than others. Those who immigrated with relative ease had qualified help before venturing onto foreign soil. Sharing those experiences, coupled with my own history, compelled my interests in providing the highest level of care to the greatest number of people leaving their homeland and venturing courageously into the unknown.

All persons are born with the natural right to be treated fairly and equally and to speak freely regardless of race, color, creed, sex, religion, political opinion, or any other status.

He got through one of the toughest schools in the military, and became a Helicopter Rescue Swimmer.  He was stationed in Japan and traveled all over the world.. After serving his country he put himself through college. He worked full-time while going to school full-time. He graduated cum laude with a bachelors degree in finance.. He then joined IBM where he became a Forensic Financial Analyst. Within 3 years he was managing over 30 analysts, and helped some of IBM’s largest clients become more efficient and profitable.. However, the boyhood dream of becoming a lawyer never left him.  He decided to make his dream a reality.  His first clients came by way of a Child Advocacy Clinic in LawSchool where he represented children in foster care.  He found that he had limitless energy and zeal when it came to fighting for his client's rights.  It was then that he knew he had made the right life choice, and his final career change.. Today, he has chosen areas of the law that make people's lives better. In representing people who have been victims of investment fraud, he has found a way to get his client's hard-earned money back. With Immigration, he has literally changed the course of his client's lives; he had the privilege of representing a client from the Darfur region of Sudan who was seeking asylum from the horrible genocide taking place there. In representing parents who have had their children placed in foster care, he not only advocates on their behalf legally, he helps them personally to change the circumstances that led to their children being removed from their care; there are dozens of reunited families in NJ who spent Christmas morning together because of his advocacy. Being of service to his clients gives his life passion and purpose. It's not a job for Mr. McGinty, it's a calling.

Rafael received his bachelor’s degree in Sociology with a concentration in Criminal Justice from William Paterson University.  He went on to receive his law degree from Rutgers University – School of Law.  Throughout law school, Rafael cultivated his interest in serving the local area by partaking in community based endeavors as well as being an avid member and contributor to the law school’s Community Law Clinic.  In addition, Rafael was awarded a prestigious fellowship from a major law firm, and was the first 1st year law student to receive such honor.. Rafael was hired directly out of law school by a large New Jersey law firm where he honed his legal skills under the guidance of some of New Jersey’s best and brightest attorneys.  Not only did this experience expose Rafael to a variety of areas of law but it also familiarized him with the needs of corporate clients.  Rafael eventually moved onto a smaller firm, returning to his roots in community oriented legal matters.  Here, Rafael found his niche in personal injury law, serving local members of the community under the guidance of one of New Jersey’s premiere personal injury attorneys.  He was also able to refine his skills in family law and municipal court proceedings.  By starting his own firm Rafael hopes to merge his large firm and small firm experiences to bring together the best of both worlds in order to most effectively serve his clients.. Rafael strives to provide clients with services that are affordable and individualized.  He is passionate about helping people, viewing every client as an opportunity to lend a helping hand through the use of his multifaceted legal skill set.  Rafael is committed to fiercely advocating for every client’s personal rights and liberties while also ensuring that they feel welcomed into his office and respected under his representation.  A Latino, Rafael is fluent in Spanish and capable of communicating with and assisting the Hispanic community as well.

After finishing law school, Joel was a Judicial Clerk to the Honorable George F. Rohde, Jr., J.S.C. in the Superior Court of New Jersey’s Law Division, Criminal Part in Passaic County.

After completing his Clerkship, Joel spent nearly four years as an Assistant Prosecutor with the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office in Jersey City, New Jersey. During this time Joel was assigned to the office’s Trial, Juvenile and Appellate Units and received specialized instruction in Wire Taps, Identifications and Motions to Suppress. Joel spent this time gaining an understanding of law enforcement’s strategies in investigating and prosecuting crime.. Joel prosecuted a wide array of cases at the Adult and Juvenile levels. Some of Joel’s most notable Adult and Juvenile cases involved charges related toHomicide, Gun Offenses, Aggravated Sexual Assault, Trafficking Narcotics, Fraud and Aggravated Assault. Joel also appeared and argued a number of matters before the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division.. Joel is an avid boxing fan and recreational boxer in his personal life. Through his passion for boxing Joel has learned that there are going to be times when you take a shot to the chin and end up on the mat. However, Joel has also learned that the true champions are the ones that get up from the mat with a ferocious hunger and passion to win. Joel brings this same hunger and passion to win to all his courtroom battles. If you have been arrested, charged or think you may be charged with a crime let Joel fight for you. “A Champion shows who he is by what he does when he’s tested.  When a person gets up and says ‘I can still do it’ he’s a Champion”. -Evander Holyfield” [created_at] => 2024-08-17 12:34:00 [name_starts_letter] => 1 ) [87] => stdClass Object ( [id] => 703845 [lawyer_name] => Joseph McLee [lawyer_photo] => [firm_name] => Joseph McLee Law, LLC [address] => 134 Brunswick Street [phone] => Not Available [top_lawyer] => 0 [zip] => 07302 [issue_summary] => Real Estate [location_summary] => Hudson - South [ext] => [city] => Jersey City [street_name] => 134 Brunswick Street [client_rating] => 5 [client_rating_count] => 10 [client_reviews] => {"review_text":"issues found during the inspection.
