Best in Mid-Cities

My experience with Josh was excellent, from initial consultation to final court date. He was thorough in explaining exactly what to expect through the entire case, and answered every question I had with knowledge and certainty. Definitely made my first experience with needing an attorney as painless ...as possible.

"Superior" Legal Services

Atty: Josh Marcum was recommeded to me and from our initial consultation I knew He was the Atty for me. His expertise, experience, and professionalism were constant source of comfort, reassurance, and confidence, to me as we navigated thru the legal system together. His previous role as a Defense A...tty was also very beneficial; as it provided insight that I found to be invaluable for my endeavor. I highly recommend him to any and all who find themselves in need of legal services. Do not settle... get "Superior" Legal Services

Above and Beyond

Josh Marcum is absolutely amazing. He is punctual, effective, diligent, and understanding. He was very kind and very easy to talk to. Instead of just letting me know how it was gonna be like my previous attorney he heard my desired outcome, fought for it, and achieved it. I asked for less community s...ervice time and he got it, I asked for a dismissal and he got it. Like all good things it took a little time, but it was all very worth it when I got call from Josh saying it was over and done. 5 out of 5 stars all the way.

Josh Marcum with the save!

Any time anyone needs to reach out to an attorney, it's a frightening experience. It generally means that you have seen better days. Josh made our family feel calm and confident in his services. From the moment we walked into his office, we were rest assured that all would be okay. Josh is a figh...ter! He has a great rapport with his clients. He is professional, yet one feels like they have known him for years. I would recommend Josh Marcum to anyone that ask for a recommendation for a lawyer.

  • 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.
