This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I could Not Be Happier!

Recently, I found myself in a perilous legal situation that would have hampered my freedom and my ability to live my life in peace. To my great fortune, a friend suggested that I contact the Stracci Law Group. I reached out to them and was put in touch with attorney Josh Malher. I had never had any b...rushes with the law, so I was very apprehensive about the situation I was in. I had no idea of what was going to happen and how it would affect my future. Josh immediately set my mind at ease about charges I was facing, how I would be represented, and what the process would entail. He patiently and effectively answered each and every question I had and made me feel comfortable with continuing to ask any others. The outcome of my situation turned out to be better than I expected, relieving me of the enormous stress I was under. Should I ever have legal issues in the future, I will be calling Josh Malher for counsel without hesitation. I have full and complete confidence in his abilities as an attorney. But just as important, his manner of communicating with me was calming, and it demonstrated a level of empathy and caring about what I was going through that I doubt I'd find in most other attorneys. In conclusion, I found Josh Malher to be a very likeable person, and his legal acumen in handling my case was outstanding to say the least. My life is getting back to normal now, and I have Josh to thank for that!

Outstanding personal service

Joshua is just simply outstanding. Nervous, scared and unfamiliar with the whole justice system he calmed fears and anxiety, treated us like we were long time friends and his professionalism and law knowledge is second to none. You can just tell he is respected in the court system. Calls and commun...ication was prompt and courteous. He was always patient in discussions and delivered tremendous results for our family. You really can’t do any better than this guy.

Ticket was dismissed

My husband got a ticket in Indiana for using his cell phone while operating the commercial vehicle, even though he did not. For a commercial driver it's a big deal that's why we had to take care of it. I found lots of good reviews about Joshua Malher and decided to hire him to help us with this matte...r. I called his office and Josh called me back the very next day to ask about the details. He was very nice and answered to all of my inquiries. Whenever I had a question I would email him and he would respond within 15 min. In the end I have received a called from his assistant saying that my husbands ticket was dismissed! I could not be more happy with the way Josh handled this case. I highly recommend him.

  • 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.
