Excellent Attorney

Josh did an amazing job helping me with my criminal case. I am extremely happy with how everything ended, I couldn't be more thankful. I would 100% recommend Josh! He is an excellent attorney, he's straightforward and honest with you. He definitely will fight for you. He goes above and beyond. He's s...uper supportive, knowledgeable, encouraging and professional. Couldn't have asked for a better lawyer!

Great guidance, value, outcome, and help

I retained Josh to represent me in an important case back in 2017. The court process took quite a while and I needed additional assistance filing motions even once everything was concluded. Josh helped me navigate through a difficult legal process, he recognized that I had made a mistake but helped m...e in staying motivated to not let it define me or alter the course of my life any more than possible. When it was all said and done I was very pleased with sentencing and restitution, Josh was able to get me 1/3 of jail time that the prosecution was seeking. He helped me in working through payment issues (I moved to a different county), transferring jail time and getting work release in my county, probation, one PV, and community service. Looking back now 4 years later, I am nearing completion on the case and have managed to maintain my life and improve my living situation, career, and be there for my wife and children. Josh worked hard and believed in me and helped me through a major hurdle and because of his work I was able to not let my life be de-railed and instead of living a criminal life I am a valued member of my small Idaho community. Thanks for everything Josh you are a great lawyer and guy!

DUI

I’m so very glad I went to Josh for my DUI, he has been an exponential help. I really don’t know what I would have done without him, from looking at having my driving privileges taken for a year to 7 months, and possibly having the SR22 insurance and interlock dropped in a few months. Very personable... and professional. Thank you Josh!

Worth Every Cent!

I was lost and tried to file documents and handle my case on my own but it was overwhelming. After reaching out to some friends from my work they highly recommended Josh and I am glad I got in contact with him. After our first meet up, I felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. H...e went above and beyond for me and I am very grateful.

"I have had many cases with Josh as opposing counsel. I have always been impressed by his abilities, depth of knowledge, and experience in family law. What I like most about working with Josh is that he is always working to find the best outcome for his clients and never takes unnecessary actions or files frivolous motions which rack up attorney's fees. But when necessary he is not afraid to take a case to trial and will fight hard, but fair, for his clients. I couldn't recommend Joshua highly enough for anyone with family law needs in Idaho."
