Best Criminal Defense!

My journey was a very long one to say the least. However, working with Rakesh allowed me time to see the light at the end of my darkest tunnel. I’ll plea the 5th with the details but imagine doing a 5k run towards the trooper fund and loosing over 14lbs of weight in the process. It was the most expen...sive workout plan ever lol (I can find the humor at my own expense now that it’s over). The odds were not in my favor at the start line but with Rakesh’s support I was able to finish the race breathing freely. He advised me in the right direction, remained blunt with the facts, and reassured me to the end. To my disbelief he was able to work out every one of my “multiple misunderstandings” and if it wasn’t for his credible knowledge of the law and court processes, this may not have been otherwise possible. Although we had our moments, at the end of it all I cannot thank him enough for his hard work and time devoted to my case and for ultimately keeping my reputation intact! I highly recommend his services to anyone who’s found themselves under deep water! Rakesh, I sincerely appreciate everything you’ve done to improve my future potential! I can finally move forward with my life at ease! You are my hero! I hope to see you in the sunshine!

Great Lawyer!

Mr Joshi represented me in a DWI case in Rotterdam. He got the charges reduced in a very professional manner. I would recommend him to anyone needing a lawyer. Besides him being an excellent attorney, he has a very pleasant personality.

I put my life in his hands and he delivered!

When I found myself in a terrible predicament, attorney Rakesh Joshi was there to help. Facing extraordinary circumstances, I didn't have many resources to defend myself against the legal system and the charges placed on me. After hiring Mr. Joshi things turned around, immediately. He did everythi...ng he said he would. Having someone on your side who really understands law and takes the time to develop a real defense strategy is critical. He worked my case as if I was a family member or loved one. The day we met, I was locked in jail out of town and away from anyone that could help me. From the start attorney Rakesh Joshi treated me with respect and dignity. We spoke about his philosophy and approach on law. At that moment I knew for sure that he was the best person to defend me in court. More than a lawyer, a man passionate about the freedoms, equality, and justice of all people. Joshi genuinely cares and represents what our justice system is supposed to do for its people. I won my case and more importantly got my life back thanks to the passionate work of attorney Rakesh Joshi. Several other overpriced lawyers declined to take my case or wanted more money, but my attorney made me and justice the priority. If you are in need of criminal defense this is the person you should be talking to. If you need representation, do yourself a favor and make the call.
