Joe W. Rose. We know the W stands for Wayne, but I could also see it standing for Win or Warrior. This man took my case when others said there was no chance. He stayed with it, stayed in my corner, when the ex employer used delay tactics and was difficult to contact and work with he fought and persisted. This guy has 20+ years of experience and he brings every bit of that to the table. Couldn't be happier with my choice in having Joe and his team represent me. Thank you Joe.

I met with Joe re a minor incident that easily could've been brushed aside. There was not a lot of time or money involved. Communication with Joe was immediate. He was on top of my case from start to finish. Probably one year and a half later I needed to contact Joe re the case. I emailed him and within one day he replied- on the weekend! Bottom line Joe is a lawyer that is available, he's hands on and no case is unimportant. He is not a typical lawyer.

I have to preface by saying I don't have that most experience with attorney interaction but from my limited dealings with attorneys I've concluded... Joe is the diamond in the rough! I met with Joe on a legal matter he was very candid about my situation which i very much appreciated, asked a lot of questions and is just generally a very personable guy. I haven't decided my next steps yet but if you're looking for an attorney who will actually listen to you and walk you through all your questions he's got my vote!

I hired Joe Rose because I realized, after working with a company for a year, that they were not paying me or anyone I worked with overtime. They were taking advantage of the fact that most of their employees were a little younger, and that we didn't really know the labor laws of California. I attempted to get this situation resolved by myself with Labor Comissions, but they pretty much laughed in my face because I didn't have "sufficient evidence". This is when I decided to hire an attorney with another coworker, and I am extremely grateful I had made that decision. We were up against one of the largest real estate investing companies in all of Sacramento, so I knew it wasn't going to be easy. Luckily, Joe took us in, consulted our situation, recommended we get as many other employees as we could involved, then went to work to get what was rightfully ours. Joe was very attentive, and kept us updated almost daily as to the standing and progression of our case. Joe was extremely confident that we had a good case, and continued to work away through every objection that was thrown at us. The people we were up against, being very affluent in the Sacramento area, had hired and fired a couple different lawyers, who kept coming up with different defenses that were completely absurd. Finally, because they knew we were going to win the case because of how strong it was, the defense decided to settle, and me along with all of my coworkers at the time were compensated for the amount of work that we had put in, and more for the fraud and lies that we had to prove before we got there. I would highly recommend Joe Rose if anyone is looking for a lawyer who will be attentive, considerate, and completely honest throughout your case. He was clearly in it for the passion of his work, not just to get money out of people. Again, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Thanks Joe for all of your help!!

You guys !! Want Mr.Rose to represent your case !! Not only did he walk me through it step by step, but reinsured me that I would not lose my license due to just allegations. As a only provider for my family of 4 this was very stressful for myself and my family. Please take my advice and obtain Rose law services. He will do everything in his power to help and reduce the stress on your life. Thank you once again Rose Law !!!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice review, Jay! It was a pleasure being your advocate through this process. And I am glad we got you through it unscathed - investigation closed with no action!

Mr. Rose was very professional and resolved my case as quickly as possible. He represented me to the board and we had a good outcome. There was no revocation, suspension, restriction, or years of probation on my RN license! God forbid I run across any more problems in the future but, if I do I would definitely hire Rose Law again. I would recommend Rose Law to anyone who needed a lawyer to fight the BRN.

Joe Rose was great to work with through the entire experience. I’m so glad I hired him to represent me in my case. He explained everything to me through the whole process and always quickly responded to all my questions. I always felt like he had my best interests at heart. Joe was always professional but compassionate as well. I’m so glad I hired Joe to represent me in my case.

Mr. Rose was recommended to me by a dear friend who unfortunately had to use him for an employment dispute -- he said I would not be disappointed, and I was not! Mr. Rose took on a large hospital company for me for wrongful termination without hesitation! He dealt with their nonsense shenanigans head-on and kept me up-to-date all along the way. Mr. Rose was kind enough to explain any legal 'talk' I didn't understand and even laughed at my corny jokes :-p In the end, we had a successful resolution to my case!! I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Rose to anyone looking for professional, no nonsense, experienced but friendly legal representation. Erin

I honestly don't know how to better convey my sentiment about the kind of service I have received from Joe Rose of Rose Law, since the first day I retained his services on a monthly subscription service basis, other than to say there was a huge gap in my risk mitigation of my business by not retaining such legal knowledge base, excellence, expertise, service, and personalized care. And when recommended by countless colleagues who already retained his services, I finally picked up the phone to discuss my small business legal needs, and I cannot express how glad I am that such a phone call took place. His service to me began even BEFORE I ever signed a contract as he heard by top of mind concerns and began to point me in the right direction. No sooner had I executed my agreement with him, I had countless customized documents uploaded to my unique company portal, and comments flowing in addressing the various real-time concerns I was facing. I am not exaggerating when I say that Joe's support from the start and to the present moment was as though Superman had swopped down from the sky to defend and rescue me. The communication, service, detail-orientation, documents, technology, availability, organization, resources, and the list goes on and on, have provided a confidence as a business owner that I have never before experienced, and are actively lending to immeasurable risk mitigation and peace of mind giving way to clarity of mind to focus on leading my enterprise. I cannot more highly recommend Joe Rose and Rose Law Group to anyone finding themselves in the same place of need. Make the call to discuss your needs with someone on their Team and you will NOT regret that investment of time and money -- the ROI is limitless!

Where to even begin... I sent in a questionnaire for Joe and received a response the same day. He reviewed my case and took time to look at all the documents I provided him even though it was an over the phone consultation I got all my questions answered. It was regarding an employment matter and he took the time to review my company’s MOU and guided me through the process. He was patient and answered all my questions. Hopefully we won’t have to get to the point where I would have to retain Joe but I am VERY confident in him if it would get to that point. THANK YOU!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave this note, Steven. I wish you the much success in getting justice in your legal matter. I would be happy to help you in the future, if needed.

Called about a business issue that actually was a family law issue. They called the next day and put me in the right direction. Explained things that were invaluable for my situation, gave me tools, and helped clear the fog of the situation. I highly recommend this firm, and would absolutely use them in the future.
Response from the owner:Best wishes on the new tools for dealing with those legal challenges, Cary! And thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience with us.
