Awesome plea
Attorney elbaz was my attorney in an armed robbery case. He was able to get my charged drop down to robbery and get me a plea of probation with no jail time . I’m beyond happy and relieved to not have this case hanging over my head .

Would absolutely recommend!
I can't recommend Joshua enough. He was extremely responsive, worked tirelessly to fight for me and my case - even through the holidays. I would absolutely recommend using him or his firm. I'm very happy with the results he was able to achieve on my behalf.
Joshua Harris Elbaz's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have know Joshua Elbaz since law school and even then it was very apparent that he would become a fantastic criminal defense attorney. Joshua is sharp, tenacious, and most importantly he treats his clients with a level of care and respect that one should hope to find in an excellent legal advocate. Joshua is the kind of person that you want standing by your side when the stakes couldn't be higher. Judges trust him, prosecutors respect him, and ultimately clients will find that they are better off when they have Joshua in their corner. Joshua is the real deal."
"I've known Josh for many years now. I am so confident in his abilities as a defense advocate that I literally referred him to a member of my family. If you're in trouble with the law, there's only one attorney to call.. that's Josh Elbaz of Elbaz and Stimpson Attorney at law!"
