Attentive and Thorough
In a consultation about a moving violation, Josh was attentive to the issues of the case, and got back to me promptly with a citation of the relevant law. Should I ever need help with a similar issue, he is the first person I will call.

Amazing!
Mr. Goldberg is intelligent, empathetic, and professional. I hired him for a speeding ticket that could have put my career at risk.

Joshua B Goldberg's Lawyer Endorsements
"Josh has been a trusted colleague for more than 20 years and he literally wrote the book on PA Driver Sanctions. http://www.gogoldberg.com/PADriverSanctions.php For moving violations, DUIs and other criminal matters, Josh is your man."
"Attorney Goldberg and I worked together on a criminal law/Orphan's Court matter in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for a mutual client. Attorney Goldberg was an integral part of the team over the approximate 18 months of the representation. Ultimately, Attorney Goldberg provided appellate case law to another lawyer on the team which was the turning point in securing the result the client was seeking. I would recommend Attorney Goldberg and would seek his counsel and work with him again."
"I have known Josh Goldberg as a fellow attorney for over 10 years. Throughout that time, Josh has shown that he treats each client's case as a unique personal challenge. Josh is set apart from the crowd not just because of the way he stands up for the unjustly accused. Josh is unique for his desire to expose the ways in which our criminal laws are biased against individuals and in favor of a criminal justice system that seeks quick and easy convictions. If you or somebody you know is at risk of becoming a victim of the process, or simply need somebody to stand up and make sure you are treated equally under the law, contact Josh Goldberg."
"Josh is a lawyer who is always tirelessly looking for that hidden weakness in the opponent's case to help get you a surprisingly good result."
"I endorse Joshua Goldberg for his excellent work in the field of criminal defense. No one will work harder for you. Atty. Mark Mack"
"I have known Josh since 2008. He has sought out the best legal training in the country when it comes to defending those charged with Driving Under the Influence and matters related to DUI. I have attended several national continuing legal education seminars and know Josh have the very best legal education in this area of the law. He puts that knowledge to use and this benefits his clients because of it."
"Mr. Goldberg is an excellent lawyer. I have seen first hand how hard he works for his clients. I would not hesitate to refer cases to him as I know they would be handled well."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I have had the pleasure of knowing Josh for several years now as we have taken many DUI courses throughout the country together. I would endorse and recommend Josh without reservation to anyone looking for an attorney who is aggressive, knowledgeable and gets results."
