Attorney Joseph Michael Dickerson and his team of professionals deliver legal solutions for your life and business. Since 1995, Mr. Dickerson has helped hundreds of families and business owners protect everything they have worked so hard for. Will the attorney you hire make a difference when handling your estate planning, real estate, or business transaction needs? If all you are looking for is a quick signature on the bottom of a document, probably not. But if you need to make sure handling your legal papers or dispute today will help you eliminate problems in years to come, there is no question the right attorney can make a difference. Many people only think of hiring a lawyer when something needs to be fixed. I see things differently. I am attorney Joseph Michael Dickerson of Laredo, Texas. Colleagues tell me I'm a different kind of lawyer. I like building things rather than breaking things apart. Since graduating from St. Mary's University School of Law in San Antonio in 1995, I have always focused my career on helping people prevent problems now, so they don't have to fix them later.

Call me today for a free initial consultation and discover why over 12,000 people since 1992 have trusted and turned to me to consult, represent, or otherwise advise and assist them in their legal matters.

The Law Office of Aniello D. Cerreto, Esq. puts clients first. Learn the benefit of my vast experience.
