You Will Be In Good Hands With Josh

Joshua McGuire: I would like to offer a very positive review of Josh McGuire, Esquire. Josh took on a complex estate matter for me, and did a terrific job. I have worked with other attorneys through the years, and Josh was the best. Incredibly smart, great strategist, and patient with his client –... me! I was particularly impressed with his ability to stay focused during depositions, and his willingness to research the issues in our case. A great guy, scrupulously honest, and willing to tell me (tactfully !) when I was wrong – you will be in good hands with Josh. BTW - Josh did not solicit my review in any way; I am prompted to write due to my genuine gratitude and confidence in Josh.

immense legal power with a down-to-earth approach

I brought what I thought was a straightforward eviction matter to t his attorney. Very quickly, it became more complicated than either of us had anticipated. Still, I felt like his only client. I am military, on assignment 8,000 miles away. He was very compassionate and professional with my young... adult child who is my proxy. ALWAYS diplomatic, tough when he needs to be and thinks outside the box when solving problems. Could not say enough good things about him! My prior career was in the criminal justice system so I know a lot of attorneys. I would put Josh McGuire in the top 5% of the 100 or so I have worked with. Great family lawyer!
