Joshua Is the best Attorney!!!

I hired Joshua as my attorney for a DUI case and he was so impressive and knowledgeable. He pin point all the wrong in the case and it was without a doubt dismissed. I am honored to have had hired such and amazing attorney who proved my innocence and was always on top of everything from beginning to ...the end. Thank you Josh and I will definitely give you a recommendation.

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.
