On point and AMAZING

Although my situation my was over 15yrs old it still was a tough one. A class B Felony drug charge with penal codes that were sure to get me charged, however Mr. Stevens handled my case with great professionalism. He was on point when it came to defending my case and informing me of the next step. Mr.... Stevens made himself available to speak at any time and kept me up to date with everything, "no hidden surprises". Very trust worthy, and gives every effort to guide you through the process. Got my charges DISMISSED by NYC prosecutors office. I'm so grateful to of have such great professional services provided by Joshua Stevens, SUPERB criminal defense lawyer. The man has got SKILLS!!

Extreme Professional

In 40+ years I have never been in trouble with the law. In the blink of an eye that all changed. Being arrested and charged with a DWI was so scary. Calling Joshua Stevens was the best move I made that night. He answered all my questions in full detail. Calmed all my fears, and told me he would tak...e care of the entire situation. Joshua Stevens always went above and beyond what was expected of him. He was there at all my court appearances putting my fears at ease. Based on his talent and knowledge of the law, he not only pleaded my case down, BUT had the case DISMISSED!!!. Although I wish you are never in this situation, but if you are- CALL Joshua Stevens at let the extreme professional handle your case.

HE is an Angel~~~~~~

He is one of the Best attorney Anyone could ever asked for. He is Always there, if I need someone to Talk to.in my real life experience in USA i have never seen a good person like him until now. He Helped me Through some Really Hard times.This Man is Amazing He Helped So many, and He is just an Amaz...ing Friend/attorney. i have been dealing with him almost a year, he handle several cases for me in including family and immigration matter and still handling my criminal case where i falsely accused by someone.he dismissed my several cases last year in December where i was charged for felony.i worked with 6/7 attorneys before but Steven Joshua is completely different.In my experience most of the attorneys are greedy for money and they don't work properly but Steven he is very generous and honest person. he is professional but not commercial. he was in the court one-time and kept me all the updated .Stevens was always there to answer a phone call, reply back to a text, an email. he is very very hardworking and knowledgeable person and he knows how to work done. one thing i have observed on him....almost everybody knows him and respect him in court place (IE: queens, Manhattan, Brooklyn).he took my all cases seriously and fought for until good outcome. i wrote a bit big review for him but its not enough for him he is a too good person and extremely honest person he always treat me like a friend. if anyone looking for a criminal defense lawyer in NYC i strongly and highly recommend you can blindly hire him.his price is very very competitive than other attorneys like almost half. I wish him a very very good life and career..... Thanks Stevens Joshua for everyting ...Mohammad

Pragmatic and Professional attorney

Josh is an excellent attorney. Easy to talk to and doesnt beat around the bush, he had a desk appearance ticket settled without even my presence at court. If youre looking for a criminal defense attorney Josh is your man.

A POWERFUL, EFFECTIVE, AFFORDABLE ADVOCATE TO HAVE IN YOUR CORNER

I was arrested for serving a minor at the bar at which I work. I appeared on my own initially, and my case was postponed due to the court not being prepared. The notice to appear for a second time did not reach me and I missed my court date, resulting in a warrant. I THOUGHT MY LIFE WAS OVER!! I was ...then referred to Josh by a friend, and he was able to appear and have my case dismissed within 17 hours. He is knowledgeable, efficient, reliable and AFFORDABLE! This has been the most satisfying professional relationship, albeit short lived...I recommend Josh a thousand times over for anyone that is looking for a successful outcome in their case.

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."

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
