A Message From Joe

Dear Friend:

On November 4th, our community will be asked to decide who should be our next judge at the 35th District Court.  I am both humbled and honored to have the opportunity to earn your vote. 

Over the last 11 years, I have built a thriving "Main Street USA" law practice in downtown Plymouth.  I have represented community residents in many different legal matters in courts throughout Michigan.  I have extensive experience practicing at the 35th District Court.  I have represented more local residents at the 35th District Court over the last 11 years than any other candidate.  I am the only candidate to have an advanced law degree.  I have focused my practice to specific areas of law to help me serve you as your district judge.

I'm not your typical politician.  My campaign is based upon the friendly relationships that I have developed with community residents throughout my years of practice and community involvement, not partisan politics.  I am a firm believer in maintaining a fair, impartial and non-partisan judiciary, just like the way our founders intended.  A judge should not be closely affiliated with or mainly supported by one political party or the other.  This is the exact reason that judicial elections are on the non-partisan ballot.   

Our next judge must be educated, hard working, and committed to making our community the best place to live.  I live and work in our community and have volunteered much of my time for the betterment of the Plymouth, Canton and Northville communities. 

A judge should use common sense in attempting to reach a fair and impartial decision.  We need a judge that is personable and compassionate, yet committed to the safety of our citizens.

As your next judge, I will work tirelessly to achieve these goals.  I kindly ask for your vote on August 5th.  Thank you.
