Simply the BEST

I got myself stuck in a sticky situation driving someone else's car. I only had to go to court once which is where I met Josh for the first time. He sat WITH me instead of with all the attorneys up in the front and talked to me as an understanding friend rather than an attorney with a full schedule. ...My phone conversations were never cut short and I was always the one to hang up first. And at the end of the day, my case was DISMISSED. My case could have potentially gone to a jury trial, and Josh assured me he was more than ready and I had no reason to worry about those implications. I don't know where I would be today, possibly jail, if I never hired Josh and his team. He is by far the most professional person I have ever met in this field and while I hope to never have legal troubles such as this again, I will certainly not hesitate to call him or his firm the moment I need them. I can't thank you guys enough!

Josh Thacker

Josh Thacker has provided legal advice and services for me and several of my friends and family over the past five years. I found him to be honest, fair and intelligent. I have heard consistent feedback from others regarding Mr. Thacker's work for them. He is a pleasure to work with.

honest, intelligent, effective

I had gotten an (awful) speeding ticket during my first semester of college. I was so unaware of the legal actions involved and Mr. Thacker walked me through each step and ensured I understood and agreed to each choice of action. His recommendations got me a very favorable outcome. Overall, I had a g...reat client experience with a helpful and knowledgable attorney.

OUTSTANDING, ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING.

Through an unfortunate misunderstanding, a member of our immediate family unexpectedly had an urgent need for a criminal defense attorney. However, through a very FORTUNATE turn of events, we found Josh Thacker and his assistant, Bridget Plott. By nature, I am an extreme perfectionist, so I don’t giv...e out rave reviews lightly. Nevertheless, our experience with this firm was ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING! Every member of our family felt comfortable speaking with Josh about our situation. Josh came across as knowledgeable and experienced, yet very humble and easy to be frank with, even on subjects that should have been embarrassing. Our situation ended up being resolved much more quickly and smoothly than how it could have gone, and we felt guided in such a way that, although it was still an incredibly stressful time in our lives, the professional service and care we received had us feeling that our legal representation was the one area where we didn’t have any concern whatsoever. To top it all off, during the first week after we had hired Josh, a highly unusual and sudden change in the nature of our case put us into a different category of representation. Without my having even considered the possibility, Josh came to us to lower his fee and provide a partial refund. While I am sure our situation is atypical, and the monetary value of our partial refund should not be a contributing factor for any decision to hire him, this act speaks volumes about his ethics. How can it be that a criminal defense attorney has such superb skill, experience, professionalism, compassion, AND strong ethics?! It may not be typical, but that is Josh, and that is why I have titled my review of him as OUTSTANDING.

Criminal defense lawyer | Dec 16

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"There are few attorneys who can live up to the ideals and expectations clients have and deserve, but Josh is one of those rare few. Whether negotiating with the prosecutor, speaking with officers, or fighting for his clients in trial, Josh is always giving 100% for his clients. When the chips are down, Josh is the type of attorney that you want in your corner."

Walter Moore

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 02

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Josh is by far one one of the best lawyers in Georgia. He specialized in Criminal Law and is not one of those attorneys that settles a client's case with the district attorney. He brings everything to the table. He vigorously represents his clients. He uses every aspect of the law to the client's advantage and dominates the Courtroom. I am a criminal defense attorney myself. As an up and coming attorney myself, I will go to several Courts and look at their calendars to find out when he has a trial. Then, I arrange my day around his cases in order to watch him in action. There are many excellent criminal defense attorneys in this area. Josh is one of the best. He is well respected throughout the judicial system. His results speak for himself. If a client decides to hire him, they will have the best representation. He goes above and beyond to achieve his client's goals. After opening my own firm, I look at his work to learn and grow. Josh Thacker is genuinely a sought after attorney."
