I met Josh. Being under unusual Court circumstances. And was in pretty deep. I hired Josh. Not only did he get me out of my situation promptly. But for a more than reasonable fee. He was referred to me, and will continue to refer him. Thank you Josh!
I was charged/framed for a serious crime, my family and I were at a loss as to how we would find a good lawyer. Everyone thought that I would go to prison. My family found Joshua B. Kutnick, and they hired him. Frankly, I was not certain that he would be able to win my case, yet I waited for the results. Prior to the trial date, he invested/worked as though he was a brother or father to me, within this cruel world I realized that humility still lives. On the day of trial, my nerves were wrecked. He went in and WOW! my case was dismissed, with no penalties. I was speechless, as was everyone else with the results. That was all due to the hard work and prowess of Joshua Kutnick, this honorable man has 18 years of experience under his belt. I normally don’t write lengthy reviews, however, I know that nobody’s absolutely perfect, everyone faces is accused once, if you’re charged, the most beneficial things you could have would be this lawyer. Thus, use him to your benefit. Do not assign a lawyer with a lack of background/experience who will only feed you empty promises, to get hold of your money, which will result in a bad outcome. Best of luck to you all.
Josh’s greatest ability is to analyze the strengths and weakness of both sides of a case, and to determine the best path that is in the client’s best interest. His personal style and courtroom acumen have been noted by many clients as his strongest traits. Clients remark that he is one way in his office, calm and comforting yet truthful and realistic. Yet he can be very different in the courtroom, where he can be equally savvy and tactful, aggressive when needed, and calm when appropriate. His ability to explain the details of law and the criminal justice system to his client sand their families.

Pragmatic thinker who always had my best interest in mind. When I was willing to fight he insisted on a different path which in fact led to the most positive and quickest outcome. Very smart person.

I recommend Joshua Kutnick 110%
I was blindsided by a criminal legal issue which severely traumatized me.. The best thing that happened was hiring Josh Kutnick as my defense counsel.
He was bright, attentive, symphathetic and aggressive on my behalf. I was VERY happy with the outcome. Thank you again Josh Kutnick!!

The best choice for great results
I hired josh to defend me against a gun charge that actually turned out to be a offense that carries 6-30years. During each court appearance I noticed that this attorney wasn't here to just take my money.. he was there to offer his undivided attention, time, experience, and mainly his genuine desire to get the best results for my case. Which is why I'm here today and not in prison for the remainder of my life. Joshua saved my life with his hard work and determination..so if your looking for a great attorney not just a lawyer.. trust me when I say that you would want this guy on your side..

Smart, Informative, and Direct-All the things you need in a great lawyer
Just like others, I needed to find representation for some charges, and Joshua was an absolute joy to work with. He made me feel incredibly comfortable by being completely open and honest with our options in terms of getting the charges removed. Without a doubt, I highly recommend this guy because he knows exactly what he is doing. He is not out there to scheme people, he is out there to help people and make their lives better-whch is hard to find in a lawyer in this city. So please, if you are looking for one of the best lawyers in the city, please give this guy a call. You will not regret it.

Defense Attorney Kutnick in high profile Illinois Eavesdropping Case
Kutnick's defense (serving probono) in the epic Illinois Eavesdropping Case involved a street artist/activist. Under the law facing 4-15 years in prison for a Class 1 Felony. The results were favorable and instrumental in the overturn of the Law and the client freed. I consulted with Josh in my involvement which was videotaping during the arrest. Josh handled the case with knowledge and dedication to the issues. I highly recommend him for his professionalism. He speaks in a way you can understand, honest, and supportive.

Bonnie and Clyde
Write a review about my attorney!!! We'll let me just say that Mr Kutnick is a very excellent attorney and one hell of a nice guy. I'd bet we would be really good friends if we were neighbors. Josh not only took on my case, but came to my wife's rescue when small town cops got over excited and got carried away with themselves. He always kept himself on a even keel, and never surgar coated the situation. Being a Chicago carpenter and my wife a laborer also from a Chicago union hall, Josh never talked down to us. Treated both of us just how he would want to be treated, and that really counts for something with me and my wife. Thank you very much, Bonnie and Clyde

LOOK NO FURTHER THIS IS YOUR GUY
I've had Josh represent me in several cases through out the years and he has never disappointed me. I've had cases ranging from possession to DUI and Josh is always the first one i call when any legal matters arise. Recently i caught my second DUI case and it was a long process but we went all the way to trial and Josh beat the charges. He also was there and beat the first DUI. Josh is very talented and is very knowledgeable in his profession. He always sticks to the fact and will tell you how it really is. His ability to analyze any situation and view different methods and approaches makes him great at his job. Thanks to Josh i have no DUI convictions on my record.

Superb lawyer
Joshua is an excellent attorney who is a professional in every sense. In a nutshell, Mr. Kutnick is a "lawyer's lawyer."

Class A lawyer
Josh defended me and helped me win, not once, but twice. He was attentive and respectful, not the typical stereotype of an attorney. I have nothing but positive feedback for Mr. Kutnick and I'd gladly refer him to family and friends.

We went to trail bench trail which he recommend and it was in all day trail he represented me and prepped me very well and was a beast in court against the states attorney and witness, now mind you ive never met Josh never was referred I found him online this man did so well and was there all the time was in contact with me threw the whole trail and case called me all the time made sure I was good and made sure I was ok and fought for me like a SPARTAN did in the movie 300. well I beat the felony hate crime which was a huge WIN! and was found guilty on battery but was a mr menor crime on the battery which i was still happy because the felony could of landed me 6 yrs in jail the mr menor isn't so bad so im very satisfied with the out come of the case and grateful to Josh for all his hard work and just being there and understanding this difficult case I would recommend my own family or anyone i know fighting a case to have this man represent you! Thank YOU JOSH! He also helped me in order protection case from same defendant against me in hate crime and he beat it and was denied and throw out!

Joshua Kutnick is THE DUI guy
In 2013 I was pulled over for a DUI. first time offense. Josh helped me through the process step by step. He answered my calls and got the job done. He got my suspension removed. He's a very easy lawyer to work with.
