Strongway Inc

Hands down the best Lawyer in Arizona ! We had a very serious case and last minute i tried calling other lawyer's nobody could take the case due to the timing . I Called Barreda Law late in the evening and the owner answered my call and took the case and drove to the little town 200 miles away from h...is office not only that but he completely beat the case and made sure our family was reunited that same day ! Baredda Law is a newer company but i promise in a couple years they will be the Best Firm in Arizona Definitly recommend to anyone that needs help with any family issues Barreda Team treated us like their own family and that meant the world to us as we were in a very hard Situation but Michael and Joshua did a Amazing job and still stay in contact with my family even tho we live out of state !! These guys know the law and are definitely the team to hire for any needs they will get results and fight for you !!!

A+, 100%, Honor Roll - The Best

If you have a family court issue with minor children Barreda Law is HIGHLY recommended. I made the mistake of hiring a different counsel at the beginning of my case, long story short ended up wrongly losing part of my decision making. My case was not over, and I realized if I didn’t have the right co...unsel I was headed towards a terrible fate. BUT Josh and Karen showed up in their night and shining armor, got us back on track and ended up with WAY MORE than I could have imagined. Not only did he have to clean up the mess the previous counsel left me in, but also gave me peace of mind with a clear intention of how things would be handled moving forward. Josh and Karen are responsive, professional and on their game! Josh was amazing during trial and I can not elaborate enough how much DIFFERENT that trial went than the previous hearings I had to go through. Josh STANDS UP for you, is confident and does not put up with non-sense from opposing party when on the stand. Thanks to Barreda Law I feel I have my voice back, my power back but most of all, can move forward in life knowing all this is now behind me and it went in my favor thanks to Josh and Karen. Josh is the GOAT!! (Greatest of all time)

He fights for you like you are his own family

I can't even begin to express how grateful I am for Josh Barreda and his paralegal Karen. When I say he fights like you are family, I mean he takes the details of your case, your feelings, concerns, intentions and learns them like the they are his own. Josh has been my attorney through 2 differ...ent custody disputes years apart (same ex-husbsand and kid). The first time around, he dominated in court, and not only was I able to keep primary custody of my son, but the judge ruled that my ex-husband had to pay the cost of my attorney fees, SCORE! He reminded me all along that my request for attorney's fees was a stretch, it is not usually awarded in custody cases, but Josh got it done!! Fast forward a few years, and my ex-husband has filed another petition to modify custody, parenting time and child support. I immediately called Josh. The situation has been contentious and every time my ex-husband harassed me, my son, my family or my friends, I went right to Josh to let him know what's up. He always responds right away - I tell him I need a Josh Pep talk and he calms me down with his words, and gives me the confidence to keep fighting for what is best for my son. We just had our temporary orders hearing and Josh was a rock-star even though it was virtual and through a computer screen! He called out my ex-husband on every one of his lies and gave me the freedom and guidance to plead my case to the judge in a very small amount of time. We were supposed to get an answer that day, and when we did not, Josh did the right thing by prepping me for the worst case scenario. That is one great thing about him that I haven't found in other lawyers, he won't BS you and tell you what you want to hear - he will tell you his honest opinion based on the facts of the case and how he thought the trial went. So while we waited he stayed in touch with me with reassuring texts, but when the judgement came back in our favor, he texted and called me right away (like 6:45 in the morning) and celebrated right along with me. Those are two of the greatest relief moments of my life that I was able to have thanks to Josh. I just can't say enough about him. The correspondence with Karen Silva has been a breeze, she is so sweet and sends me reminders before things are due, and they write up these amazing documents with very clear & concise instructions when I've been hit with bizarre discovery requests. I was blown away with the way she wrote up my pre-trial statement and response, everything that they produced was written like they were my own words. They managed to capture all of my feelings and convictions into words so there is no doubt my point got across to the judge and opposing counsel. I will always and forever trust him to help me navigate any kind of legal situation that arises (hopefully this is the last one) because he has the perfect mix of talent and compassion. He's the best!!

Excellent, caring, compassionate, confident, efficient, talented lawyer!! Loved working with him every step of the way!

I am so thankful and VERY bless to have met Mr. Joshua A. Barreda! I called in to Cantor Law the day after I was served with notice to appear with a 2 week notice and they got me in for a free consult that day. The first man I met took the time to get to know my case along with my personality and tha...t is when they paired me with Joshua. At Cantor Law Group the they are more than “just a business” they care and take the time to help you through every bend in the road. I can not say enough about Joshua however, I felt like he was more than just my lawyer, he became a friend. Joshua cared about my case on a level I didn’t think was possible, when I would call in upset or crying over documents he was already waiting! He took the time to get to know ME to the point that he knew before he sent me the Respondents papers he knew to make sure he was available if I called (which I always did!). It never seemed to matter how many times I needed to call or email Mr. Barreda ALWAYS responded quickly with all the answers or reassurance I needed. He is confident but also realistic and never gives you false hope, he never mislead me. He was always professional and efficient, especially in trial! I appreciated him more than I think he truly knows. I loved being a client because of him along with the other staff there at the office. (I loved his paralegal Erica d’Entremont! I was very sad to hear she departed the firm to purse life with her family in another state, but so glad I was able to meet and work with her for the majority of my case) I will close with this, I am not your “typical” woman, I don’t dress fancy, I walked into their very beautiful downtown Phoenix high rise office, feeling very intimidated myself, with my worn out cowboy boots, jeans and grunt style t-shirts, but I NEVER felt judged or less important than someone who may walk in with a $3,000 suit. They are so friendly, kind, caring and attentive making it always a comfortable experience.
