Excellent counsel for any criminal matter

I was recommended Josh by a friend who has had many successful dealings with him in the past. after my friend asked him to reach out he called me right away to see how he could help. the next day i was in his office and he immediately put me at ease about my case, explained all procedures, listened a...nd took notes. naturally i did a bunch of my own research into my case before coming to see him and any question i asked him he was right on the ball. knew it all !! He was on time to all of the hearings and had a great rapport with the court personnel - got me to the front of the line every time. to me he is a genuine guy and i always had the feeling he cared about my needs every step of the way. in the end he got me the best deal with the court that i could have hoped for AND got a second charge dismissed. couldn't have hoped for any better results. he was even very affordable and let me work out a payment system - it was easy! Now I'm entrusting him with another matter - a civil one and am confident he'll get me the result i want. thanks again Josh! G

Professional, responsive adn detail oriented

I have been working with Joshua for over five years. I conduct alcohol use disorder assessment for individuals Joshua represents in defense of DWI and DUI charges. Each person that I see who is represented by Joshua seems well informed about their case, each person indicates that Joshua keeps them we...ll informed regarding the process of adjudication and possible outcomes. I would recommend Joshua to friends and family without hesitation. My sense is that he takes pride in his work and cares about his clients.

Great lawyer!!

I was referred to Josh by a friend and that was the best choice I made. He did a great job and there for me throughout the entire process. He's very professional and a great guy. I was innocent and he never pressured me to take a deal. I was innocent and he never pressured me to take a deal. He g...ot me off Scott free and I thank him for everything he did. He really is a standup guy.

If you ever need an attorney hire Joshua Stevens!

Don’t hesitate, just call him immediately! He got my reckless driving case dismissed with no charges, fine, or points. He made an awful experience very seamless. He is the best and I highly recommend him!

Gun Case Dismissed

After being in the wrong place at the wrong time, I was facing felony charges for possession of a weapon alongside other charges. I hired Joshua and the case was dismissed with 5 MONTHS!!! Which is amazing, I knew people with similar cases who had to fight their changes for a year or more. I am a col...lege student and Joshua was able to get the charges dismissed and sealed leaving me with a peace of mind for when I begin my job search shortly.

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."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
