Joshua Reuven Katz

Not because he will not do anything to defend your case, the only noted effort is in calculating the minutes to bill you. Because he will drop the ball, not show up to represent you and repond to your calls and emails days or probably weeks after you reach out to him. Because he will screw you with ...the judge and opposing counsel if it serves his business relationships with them more than a win matters. He's a hack that charges you for screwing you over.

Do not fall into trap. He is the worst attorney you can ever encounter in your life. He is a s a money hungery attorney which is very common but he is one of the worst He is so cheap that his wife work as his own secretory, she has no clue about any thing other than collecting money and taking me...ssages. He would promptly return your calls and messages untill you pay the retainer, after that you will be lucky if he answer your call or email in couple of weeks. There is one thing he is extremely good at which is calculating the minutes for his invoice. I know that he will respond to my review by denying since he denied other reviews before, he will say i did not pay him which is not true, he had money left in the retainer but asked for more money before he continue to work on the case. If you decide to hire him after reading my review, please do not pay him a high retainer as he always requires since he knows that no one usually pay him after depleting the retainer and he will never refund you a penny if you fire him.

Josh had to come in and clean up a very nasty and hostile divorce. Josh was everything that a lawyer should be. He made himself available, answers his own phone. He’s knowledgeable and successful. However I didn’t hire him just for that, he’s on the inside, he works with and knows the magistrates. He... knew a lot of the opposing counsel to include mine. He litigates. He has confidence. If he tells you it’s going to happen it does. We’ve been through hell and the important part is he got me back in one piece, and that’s not an exaggeration.

I hired mr. Katz for several months. He was mostly professional, over promising, sometimes his work would be satisfactory He would answer 85% of his emails with three or more days of delay and sometimes jot answering them at all. I felt money was his main motivation. Sometimes he would do his own th...ing at court despite being asked to do what the clients ask him to do. I believe in his own way he cared but he would have too many clients to deliver the quality work that other clients are paying him for.

I had the misfortune of having Joshua R. Katz as my divorce attorney in what was a pretty simple case. Unfortunately, his greed, and carelessness turned a very simple case into a lengthy and unpleasant scenario. He never returned calls in a timely manner - had to wait months for him to contact me ba...ck. Divorce is a stressful enough life event - choosing the wrong attorney can leave a damaging effect on your life. Stay away if you're looking for someone who will "truly" be compassionate with your situation.
