J+M Law Celebrates a Legacy of Excellence, New Chapter for Partners

Joyce + McFarland LLP proudly celebrates 15 years of providing clients with top notch legal services. Since Jeff and John formed the firm on November 1, 2008 – in middle of the Great Recession – they remained focused on efficiently achieving optimal results for the firm’s clients, and this milestone stands as a testament to their enduring success.

And now we are turning the page to a new chapter. The founding partners have mutually decided to transition into new and separate ventures. Beginning on January 1, 2024, Jeff Joyce will transition his practice to The Joyce Law Firm and John H. McFarland will transition his practice to John McFarland Lawyers PLLC dba JM Lawyers.

To our clients, thank you for letting us represent you. Nothing happens without you. To all the great people we got to work with, know how much we appreciate all you did to make the firm what it was. We assure our clients, colleagues, and vendors that this transition will be smooth. Providing top-notch legal services remains our sole commitment, and the legacy of Joyce +McFarland will endure through the continued dedication of our talented team.
