"I’m writing this review to express my appreciation and respect for a man who has helped me through a tough time. Mr. Renk’s professionalism and positive presence in court does not take away from the kindness and realness he displays while working outside of the court room with you. He delivers his service in a way that does not feel rushed or forced but is sincere without a doubt. I’ve had a few experiences with lawyers and I can tell you confidently that it has been my privilege to work with such a fine gentleman. Thank you so much for all your care Joel. If you’re reading this, know that you’ve come across a gem of a lawyer and he does not disappoint."

"I met Joel Renk in law school 28 years ago. I was a single mom of 3, working night shift in an emergency room and was in law school. Joel took time out of his busy schedule to help me study for exams throughout school. He is an intelligent, professional and successful criminal defense attorney. I highly recommend him if you need a criminal defense attorney."
