Review Joshua Strickland

Very Professional

Posted by

I have used Josh's services to buy another business and renegotiate a lease. In both instances Josh was very professional offering sage advice in a timely manner. He was able to help me negotiate fair deals in both endeavors. Josh operates ethically but is not afraid to get tough when it is necessary. Josh is an excellent attorney with morals.

I Josh is an excellent transactional attorney.He gets matters done promptly and exhibits a thorough knowledge and understanding of his clients requirements and best interests.

Brian Bly, Litigation Attorney on Nov 6, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse Josh Strickland. Josh is a well-known lawyer in Lake County and Cuyahoga County who is involved in a number of local business and community groups. I opposed Josh in a recent case, and he was very competent and thorough. He was able to negotiate a very fair settlement for his client. I know that the next time I find myself involved in a case with Josh, that I will be dealing with someone who is reasonable and professional.
