HE IS ONE OF THE BEST

I met Josh 12 years ago in a very trying time in my life. He could not of made the process any easier.. I have sent numerous friends to him and getting ready to use him again... He is the best in my books...

My Divorce Case

Josh was a great attorney for my divorce. He was very warm, compassionate and always knew when I just needed a hug. This was a very stressful and emotional time in my life and I am so thankful for his handling of my case. He just knew what to do.

Great Lawyer!

Josh was a great divorce lawyer, picked up where my previous lawyer slacked and really took care of business. Josh and his staff are very helpful, supportive, and always responded quickly to any questions I had. I highly recommend him for anyone going through a divorce.

Outstanding!

I have never met a lawyer that I liked until I met Josh. He and his staff (Rosa), walked me through the whole process holding my hand. They made me feel as they were fighting my case like I was family. Very knowledgeable. I will NEVER use anyone but Josh Northam!...

Gets the job done

I've not used him but a friend has, my observation of him in the courtroom convinced me he is who I would call if a lawyer was needed. He was always top of his game.

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.
