Excellent Lawyer for Criminal Law (CDV)

Josh represented me in a criminal case back in 2021 that I was unfairly accused of some major felonies that could have ended with 85 years behind bars. Through his diligence and expertise he was able to get it plead down to a single misdemeanor with 3 years probation from 3 separate felony charge...s and 85 years. I highly recommend him for any domestic violence charges. He knows his stuff.

Divorce and custody

I was very pleased with the outcome of the divorce and custody hearing and pleased with mr. Raffini as my attorney.

Excellent attorney!!!

Josh Raffini is an excellent attorney, and I highly recommend him. He is very personable and has helped me with my will and estate planning. In addition, most recently he guided me through a property acquisition. He was very thorough and ensured that I was properly represented throughout the proce...ss. I have never felt this "at ease" with any other attorney I've used in the past - - so I've finally found the attorney who will represent me for the rest of my life!! I'm so happy to call him "my attorney".

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Very reliable, responsive and genuine.

First off, he did a wonderful job!! Previous to Mr. Raffini, I had another lawyer. I felt my case was falling through, but he turned it around. I ended up with a great outcome and I have him to thank. He was very responsive and gave all the details of what was to be expected and possible outcomes.... I definitely recommend him for representation and you won't be disappointed.

Avvo Rating

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.
