Hire Him

He was great, stayed on top of everything needed for my appeal/hearing. He represented my friend as well and won both of our cases.

Disappointed

I hired Joshua to help with my Social Security case but had to end the relationship due to repeated unprofessional behavior, including removing me from his own support group without explanation. Disappointed in how he treats people seeking help.

I had to end this attorney client relationship because she would not listen. She would also text questions in the middle of the night including weekends and if I did not answer she would continue to harass. She did not respect my private time.

Great Attorney

Phenomenal in handling my case with proficiency. He kept me informed on every aspect of my case. We won which was the main thing for me ! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a very dependable lawyer to represent them. He gathered all medical documentation and went to extreme lengths to mak...e sure all the i's were dotted and t's were crossed. Even when frustration ensued upon me with the other party. He stepped in and handled everything making sure that I understood he had everything covered from the beginning to the end. He handled my case with care & efficiency. I would again say I'd recommend him to anyone that wants a top rated attorney to handle their case.

Great lawyer!

Josh was amazing! He heard me out from the start, and actually looked at my case when other lawyers turned me down for being "too young". I'm lgbtq and he was respectful and kind to me throughout the entire process. He was clear with what we still needed. He worked very well with my memory issues nev...er minded telling me what we needed. He made the whole process a breeze for me and I had been doing it alone for so long. It was an amazing weight that got lifted. He made sure to talk to me as much as I needed to be prepared and less anxious. 10/10 recommend.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"As a fellow practitioner, I am aware of both the legal expertise and the high level of services provided on behalf of clients by Attorney Joshua Ben. The services provided by Josh are above average, when compared to other practitioners. Josh is also a self-starter, and a very assertive advocate on behalf of his clients. Josh does not need to be prodded with respect to the interests of his clients, and he serves his clients extremely well. I am also impressed that Josh is an attorney who is well prepared, and whose position is supported by thorough legal research, which produces a clear and impressive case before the Court, and which is readily apparent to judges and other fact finders who must make decisions regarding the cases presented by him on behalf of his clients. I strongly recommend Josh as a high quality practitioner, with not just legal, sense, but good common sense, in providing services in the areas where he practices."
