Excellent attorney!

Josh is a great attorney. He was always there to answer our questions or to offer a helpful word of advise. I would recommend Joshua R Driskell to anyone needing an attorney.

Josh was the easiest person to work with. We would highly recommend him to our friends & family! He made sure everything was explained throughout the time he was representing us & he always made us feel comfortable. There wasn't a single time that he didn't responded quickly to a message or e-mail we... sent him. We're extremely grateful Josh was our attorney, he made sure we got what we deserved & he fought to make sure that happened!

Excellent!!

Mr. Driskell handled my personal financial matter with ease, professionalism and quickness. Before retaining Joshua as council, I spoke with several other attorneys and they did not exhibit the knowledge and skill that he possesses. Everything that transpired happened exactly as he said it would, lea...ving me very pleased!

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.
