My name is William Anderson and Joe Is my Attorney, but more importantly he became my friend. Joe I don't know how too thank you. Attorney Hennessy took me through a serious situation that i created myself. I found myself locked up with warrants in 4 different counties and little hope of getting home soon. Joe took my case's and got me released at the first court appearance in Plymouth county. He then followed me all over the state too resolve the rest of my legal issues. Joe's courtroom skills and knowledge of the law are in a class of there own. He completely out classed the prosecution in 4 different courts. Attorney Hennessy is now my friend as I have resolved all my legal issue's. I will continue to keep him on speed dial and I will be forever grateful too him.

To Whom It May Concern, I...

To Whom It May Concern,



I recently contacted your office for help with a 11 year old case from when I lived in Sherborn, MA. I sent an email and was called back within a few hours by Joe Henneessey, I explained the problem I had and he said he would look into it and call me back. Well, he did just that, two days later he called me, exlpained what I needed to do, and I made plans to fly to Boston. I arrived at the bus stop in Frammingham and Mr. Henneessey was there to pick me up, he took me all around the places need to resolve this legal matter and by 2:30 that afternoon, I was on my way back to the airport, matter resolved. Mr. henneessey stood beside me the whole time, stayed in contact with me about everyday, He is very professional and I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks Joe for all your help, you were great..

Its true, I wasn't a number to him. He took the time to visit me in jail while I awaited my case. He even stopped by just to say hi and to check on me to see how I was holding up. He never gave up when the case looked bad, and he never gloated when it looked great. He stood by me and treated me and my family with respect at all times. I had many attorneys in the past that did treat me like a number and never cared about the other side of the case- my family. They never showed the compassion that he showed and because of that I am grateful. I highly recommend him.

Joe Hennessey took the time to review my charges and saw that my case was beatable. My court appointed attorney wanted me to plead guilty but Joe saw there were problems with the search and suggested we file a motion to suppress the evidence. His advice was correct and all of the evidence was suppressed as a result of an illegal search. Joe saved me from going to jail when my previous attorney wanted me to take a 1 year sentence. My wife, children and I thank you.

Top Lawyer Criminal Matter

Mr. Joseph Hennessey is representing my daughter's ongoing case After four months of talking to lawyers about her case I found Mr. Hennessey. Reading about all his experience in law enforcement I spoke to him, he immediately met with my daughter. Legal defenders take on a great responsibility with your life in thier hands, Mr. Hennessey goes above and beyond the call of duty when he takes on a case. He is extremely competent and treats all involved with the utmost respect and digitiy at a time that is one of the most difficult in your life. A trait sorely missed, but one Mr. Hennessey has shown over and over a trait that sets him apart from all others in his profession that I have experienced in the last ten months. My family has complete confidence in his law abilities and knowledge. Mr. Hennessey gives us hope in knowing how hard he has and continues to work on her case. If you are ever in need for a compassionate, experienced, and trustworthy lawyer that is on your side I highly recommend your first call to be to Mr. Joseph Hennessey

My family owes you a enormous graditude for all you have done and continue to do for our family.

Family Law

I want to let everyone and anyone know what an exceptional attorney Joseph Hennessey is in the Family Law arena. Attorney Hennessey has been my attorney in a very serious family law matter regarding my son. It has been a very long bitter battle. Attorney Hennessey has stuck by me the entire time. He knows the laws, he researches everything, if he doesn't know it he will find it and he will apply all his knowledge to your case. He is very smart and well versed in the legal field. He will serve you in the best, fastest and nicest manner possible. He keeps you informed and does not let you fall to the waste side as most attorney's do on a daily basis. He will fight for your rights in the fairest way possible and he never comes up short. He is not just a lawyer, but someone who will go above the attorney role. He will support you and look out for your well being too. There were many ways I felt defeated. Joe never let me quit. He taught me to be positive at all times and look at the big picture. It worked. We always seem to prevail. Joe has not just become my attorney, but a trusted and dear friend. Attorney Hennessey was referred to me by my friends and they are also very happy with his services.



Trust in Attorney Hennessey you will be happy you did.



Thanks for all you do Joe!



If you need a reference I will not hesitate to give you one.

If you need the services of an excellent and experienced attorney in criminal,landlord/tenant issues or with immigration,you should not worry your head but find attorney Joe Hennessey.Attorney Joe will listen to you attentively,give you hope and assurance and the next thing you can be sure of is that the case is handled quickly and successful.Since i met Attorney Joe, i have stopped dealing with any attorney in town except him. He is different from all attorneys i have dealt with in my life.His work is very excellent but the fees surprisely very low compared to other attorneys in town.Just give him a call if you have any legal issues, and you will experience things yourself.

Excellent Attorney

If you are caught up in a criminal matter or are potentially facing one, then hire Attorney Hennessey. In addition to his trial experience and vast knowledge of the criminal law, the years spent on the force as a police officer clearly gives him valueable insight in advocating for his clients. An individual's liberty can easily be taken away even when he is innocent. So finding the right Attorney with experience and knowledge of the criminal area is key. Attorney Hennessey demonstrates this zealously on behalf of all his clients in the criminal justice system.
