Joe is a seasoned and accomplished litigator—and feared advocate—whose practice focuses primarily on complex litigation and defamation at the trial and appellate levels and advising clients facing high-profile reputational attacks.

As just one example, Joe represented Nicole Eramo in her successful defamation lawsuit against Rolling Stone magazine regarding the now-discredited viral article “A Rape on Campus” that falsely reported the purported cover-up of an alleged gang rape at the University of Virginia—and achieved a multi-million-dollar jury verdict for his client..

As just one example, Joe achieved a major, highly-publicized victory against The New York Times for former Governor Sarah Palin in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit arising out of a defamatory editorial.. Joe’s groundbreaking victories for his clients are also numerous outside of litigation. In fact, many of Joe’s biggest accomplishments are behind-the-scenes victories. Joe has kept untold clients out of the headlines, killing numerous false stories, exposés, and even books before they were published. And Joe has secured for clients many dozens of retractions and corrections from major media outlets, including the Associated Press, Huffington Post, Daily Mail, Slate, Yahoo! News, and the New York Daily News, among others.. Joe has also maintained an active pro bono practice, including having represented numerous religious institutions as amici in support of the successful petitioners in the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark religious freedom case, Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church & School v. EEOC, 565 U.S. 171 (2012). Joe also worked closely with the Legal Aid Society of the District of Columbia in launching the first legal clinic in Southwest DC offering free legal services.

I believe in direct communication and cooperation between the lawyer and client. A lawyer can’t be helpful if he or she talks at you or around you. So I'll ask lots of questions, I'll really listen to your answers, I’ll give you straight answers to your questions, and, together, we will craft an approach that gives us the best chance at achieving your goals. At every step in the process, we’ll watch for opportunities to settle issues. Bear in mind, however, that well prepared litigation is sometimes needed to create the environment for settlement..
