OUTSTANDING PROFESSIONAL!!!

Dealing with legal troubles is a stressful experience. I can’t imagine going through the last eight months without Josh’s support. He was able to get my charges reduced from a misdemeanor DUI to a traffic violation. I was able to keep my drivers license (and my job). Josh took it upon himself to go ...far beyond what I could've expected. He is service oriented, friendly and very professional. I felt fortunate at the outcome of my case. If you need a legal advocate, hire Josh Stevens. He will give you the best possible chance for a positive result.

saved me again

This is the second time Josh helped me out. Both times he got my charges dismissed. The first was marijuana possession and the second was assault. He also came to bail me out on short notice. He's very professional and explains everything for those who aren't familiar with the judicial system. I... can't think of anything else you could want in a lawyer.

The lawyer you want in your corner!

Josh Stevens went above and beyond for me and I am truly grateful. I was facing a legal issue that would leave me a criminal record. I work abroad and I need to have a clean record for my work clearance. He was able to make a plea with the D.A. and got me only a violation. I have never once been in t...rouble with the law. The intricate details of the whole legal system were truly foreign to me. If the court was like a symphony, Josh was Mozart. He was the conductor walking me through every step of the way. Even while I was back at work outside of United States, we would communicate via email or Face Time. Jos was professional, helpful and to the point throughout the whole ordeal. He has the experience, knowledge and determination to fight for the best deal possible. Josh is the lawyer you want in your corner. I would hire him again if needed.

Hard core, excellent, to the point, always has your back.. #1

I'm not excited as to why I had to meet Joshua, but I'm grateful that I did meet him. He always answered my calls. He was always on time and always there. He fought for me the entire time. He defended me even harder when things looked bad. I was first offered 5 to 8 years and Jushua got me time se...rved from when I was arrested and no probation. There is not enough space for me too write about his attitude and his fought for his clients. This is your guy.

Great Lawyer

I was facing a DUI for weed and that would leave me with a criminal record. I wanted to avoid getting a criminal record at all costs and I did not want to take any classes or have my license suspended. Josh Stevens did a great job of making a plea with the D.A. And got me a disorderly conduct with 3 ...days of community service done privately where I live in Nj. Josh is always there at court and reminds you the day before to let you know to go to court. I'm happy for Josh to get me a violation that would not stay on my record, and for giving me a reasonable price to defend me. I would hire again (if ever needed)

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Mr. Stevens on many cases and he is a very talented and well respected lawyer who really cares about his clients and getting the best results in every case. He is always courteous, prompt, and very well prepared for every court appearance. He always answers his phone or promptly returns his calls and that is what you would expect from a lawyer who understands that clients want to be able to reach their attorney with questions and concerns and not have to wait days for a return call. He has won complete dismissals on over a dozen cases that I referred to him or worked with him on and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a criminal lawyer in New York. His fees are often half of what other lawyers ask and that is one of the other reasons that I refer so many cases to him when I am unable to make the appearance."
