Look no further!

I was accused of something very serious and knew I needed to hire an attorney who had experience in military law. I did my research, I spoke with quite a few attorneys and then I talked to Mr. Traeger. Immediately I knew he was the right lawyer for me. Mr. Traeger was very knowledgeable, respectf...ul and insightful with every aspect of my case which spanned over 2 years. If he did not answer his phone he would call me back within a day or two. He took my needs, my rights, and my career seriously. He asked questions about my family and made me feel at ease as much as possible throughout the lowest point in my life. Mr. Traeger informed me of everything that was going on with my case, what to expect and how we would handle every situation. He fought tirelessly and with a purpose throughout every stage of the process. If you ever find yourself needing an experienced, knowledgeable and confident lawyer that will fight for your best interest, you need to hire Mr. Traeger. My family and I thank you for for everything you have done for us.

Josh Traeger review

Josh Traeger was very thorough in his representation of me. In retrospect I wished I would’ve hired him earlier in the process. He was a tenacious defender of my legal rights, and particularly so in his trial defense. He was always accessible and it felt like he took a personal interest in my well-be...ing. I would whole heartedly recommend him as a defense attorney.

Look No Further

Within the first few minutes after having spoken to Josh, he had notified all parties and agencies involved that his firm will be representing me and that all matters pertaining must go through him. During this long and trying process, Josh's support for my family and I emotionally and professionall...y was second to none in our time of need and was always a phone call away. His genuine caring and concern gave us peace of mind not to be confused with his ferocity in the courtroom and/or the negotiation table. I have not regretted for one second my choice to have Josh by my side in battle and trust me, I have interviewed and researched many other attorneys around the country. If you want the best, Look No Further.

Kind & Knowledgeable, Highly Recommended

Joshua is very knowledgeable and compassionate. He helped me with a very delicate, military legal issue and due to his experience and expertise in military law my outcome was favorable. Joshua was always available to speak with me anytime and I always felt that he prioritized me and my case. I am ver...y grateful to have had Joshua as my attorney and recommend him wholeheartedly!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Josh is a bull dog in the courtroom. He will fight for you until there is no fight left in him. I trust him completely and would not hesitate to recommend him. He is a worthy opponent as well, I don't ever want to see him on the other side of the aisle again."
