Posted by Mary | November 14, 2015 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Fantastic

Joshua is both compassionate and resourceful. I initially engaged him to ensure that documents for a guardianship filing were thorough and professional. When the situation suddenly became more complex, Joshua used his probate expertise to obtain a unique ruling (within 24 hours) which relieved anguis...h and re-inspired confidence in the judicial system. I would recommend Joshua Goode to anyone who wants high caliber legal representation from an attorney who is sincere and remarkably fair.

His enthusiasm for his client's best interest is outstanding. He is a professional in every way and I would highly recommend h...im.

"Josh is an excellent lawyer with the rare combination of extensive experience in the private sector and as a public servant. He served Hamilton County first as a Probate Court Magistrate, where he decided every type of probate matter, often during the most difficult of circumstances for the parties. He now uses this invaluable experience to serve his clients in private practice. If you need a probate lawyer in the Cincinnati area, call Josh. He will take care of you."

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.
