About Joseph H. Downer
As a lawyer, Joe Downer concentrates on civil litigation, trial work, and worker's compensation. His consistent loyalty to his clients has earned him a membership with the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a prestigious group of fewer then 1% of U.S. lawyers who have won million and multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements. He credits his success to a passion for helping others. "I love what I do because you can really help those in need. There is nothing like a hug from a client or to see the smile on their face when you have gone the extra mile and achieved a good result for them, whether through trial or settlement." In addition to his career as a lawyer in Charlotte, Joe has also proudly built a family here. Although home is his favorite place to be, he loves to travel with his wife for 40 years, Elaine, and their daughter, Elizabeth. Awards and Honors Honors BV Peer Review Rating, Martindale-Hubbell
