Joshua James Price

Summer of 2020, months after the world shut down due to Covid-19, I experienced my first DUI. I am still humbled by the day, and my poor choice to get into my car and think that I was okay to drive. I will begin by saying that I am so grateful that I did not get hurt, or hurt someone else. I did ...not need to research a DUI attorney. I called a friend who I knew had gone through a very stressful, extreme case with his DUI. He turned to Josh Price, based off a referral from someone else, years earlier that we both know as well. I had remembered a few years back, how my friend spoke so highly of "his attorney." His case worked out amazing, and so I didn't even second guess my choice to reach out and get Josh Price's information. For a first time offense, I had a few factors with my case that were very stressful. My BAC was a .30, after the blood work came back. I had zero food on board that day, had only two cups of strong coffee and drank hard alcohol, which I never do. I struck a parked car, that thank God, nobody was even so much as sitting in. It was a residential area, and I panicked. I got turned around and realized I needed to stop and get parked. I was pulled over, and the rest was surreal. I reached out to Josh Price the next day, sad and embarrassed to try and remember the details, which I felt like I was in total shock doing so. Josh took my case on and from here, I will address my experience with how me and my case were both treated. From the beginning of my experience, I was not only treated so respectfully, and the professionalism was incredible. Both Josh, and Amanda, his paralegal, should get "tips" for their kind listening skills and almost therapist type virtues. They never once made me feel "judged," which was so appreciated. They guided me with suggestions and possible worst case scenarios, to least. With my case, my fear was the fact that I drove a short distance away from the car that I struck. I was so scared that things could escalate to a hit and run. Josh was firm, but down to earth. I had friends ask why I paid an attorney, and I believe they thought I got one, thinking I was going to get of of a DUI. This was so far from it! I wanted to make sure I did everything I needed to do right. It was covid, and I wanted to have nothing slip through the cracks so to speak. I did not think I was going to get out of a DUI. I made a poor choice, and the BAC was evidence, yet having Josh Price guide me through the whole process made things feel right. End result, I did everything with the time I had to wait, due to everything being pushed out due to covid. SMART meetings, MADD, and a number of other suggestions. Josh showed up on my behalf and was always quick to answer his phone personally, as Amanda did as well. He got the DMV to drop the hit and run, I got ordered to do a DUI program of course, but no alcohol monitoring orders, even with the high BAC. Both Josh and Amanda were available to answer any questions I had, and they educated me on so many levels of what I needed to be mindful of with moving forward with my life following this event. Two things stand out for me through this entire experience, which are the following; Josh has paperwork that you fill out when you become a client. The last question asks you, "what is your hope for the outcome of your case?" The other is MADD, my takeaway is that there really is no excuse to drink and drive. The answer to Josh's paperwork, to this day is still the same. I wanted the outcome to be for my highest good. I made a choice that the result was a DUI. It was humbling, and scary for me. I took it serious, and once again am so grateful nobody got hurt. MADD, again... in my case, I have the power of choice to remember there is no excuse to drink and drive. Thank you Josh and Ama

There are not enough words to express my gratitude towards Josh Price and his firm. First off, let me start by saying that I spent hours researching and speaking with different lawyers before I chose Mr. Price. While I was overall impressed with the level of response I received over the weekend from ...multiple lawyers wanting my business my gut instinct led me to choose Josh as the lawyer I wanted to defend me. Josh called me back over a weekend he was on vacation and spent quite a bit of time on the phone with me explaining the process and getting the details of my case. He, unlike other lawyers I had spoken with already had a game plan for how he was going to fight my case. As anyone fighting a DUI knows you are up against 2 fights. One with the courts and one with the DMV. Josh had a fire in his voice and I just knew that if anyone could find the best outcome for me it would be him. I would also like to mention that I was pulled over in Riverside but am a resident in San Diego. The city of Riverside is a different jurisdiction and in many cases a tougher fight than the City of San Diego when it comes to DUI’s. I was a little nervous at first choosing a lawyer outside the city of Riverside, concerned that he may not know how to navigate the system as well as San Diego but I was wrong and again so glad that I trusted my gut and chose Josh. Josh is not the cheapest lawyer you will find or the most expensive. His price is fair and well worth every penny. He was up front and clear with me regarding what was covered in the flat retainer fee I paid to him to fight my case and what fees were outside of that. My case took almost a year to resolve and Josh stayed in communication with me the entire time as he navigated me through the process. He and his firm were available day and night to answer my questions and help me through one of the most difficult times of my life. To provide some further context, this was a first offense DUI with .09% PAS & 08/.08 evidential breath. I had a squeaky clean driving record prior to this event. Josh went to court for me multiple times and was able to get the Prosecutor to agree to dismiss the DUI charges in exchange for a plea to alcohol related reckless driving (wet and reckless). My court case took about 3 months to resolve but we were still up against the DMV. The DMV battle took almost a year to resolve but Josh did not back down. He gathered all the evidence he needed to fight my DMV case and was able to win my DMV hearing saving my license! No license suspension, no IID, nothing! This has been a humbling experience and not a situation anyone wants to find themselves in but if you do find yourself in this unfortunate situation….CALL JOSH!! And next time CALL UBER!!!

Sad that I made a poor decision to drive when I felt I was OK to do so. If you value your career and the possible outcome after the shame and embarrassing situation you need the best in representation. I did my due diligence and “interviewed two other pseudo top dui attorneys”. I did the in person ...meet and greet and felt the persons I met with were the sort of people who only wanted a pay day and I was a “case”. I arrived at Joshua’s office. Nervous at first to discuss the details but within five minutes I knew I had met the person to best represent me. Let me very clear, Joshua and Amanda are a force to be reckoned with. I was given, from the beginning, a very clear and concise plan of attack of my defense. The phone calls and in person details of my case were handled with the utmost professionalism and attention to detail. I cannot express how much this team did for me. This was my first and will be my only dealings with a DUI. Joshua fought for my rights...he appeared multiple times in the process and with his guidance we decided to move forward and challenge the process of my blood work and with expert testimony...the criminal portion was dismissed....read that again...he brought an expert in front of the judge and was articulate and aggressive in the best possible way. He focused on my constitutional rights and proved in a court of law that I deserved my rights. I sat in the courtroom (for the first time in my life) with Joshua on my right side. He is a force to be reckoned with and I have already made mention to colleagues that should you need a power house in your corner this is the team. It’s not an easy thing to through with, getting arrested, going to jail for a night, waking up and going home and suffering the main and anguish you have made a stupid mistake. I only know that EVERY dollar I spent on my defense was worth it. There are no promises, however if I ever had to refer anyone on the legalities and having clear, concise and confidence on how to handle this..I would without a shadow of a doubt recommend his services. You will not get better representation but more importantly you will be treated with the utmost compassion and concern. I won my criminal component and we are awaiting a successful outcome with the DMV

Joshua Price and his assistant Amanda were a real blessing for me in a time of great difficulty. Mr. Price was always available to talk with me regarding my cases (4 prescription med DUIs within 6 months, including collisions), and advise me. He handled everything professionally and with great exper...tise and skill. I never had to go to court or to the DMV hearings and he or Amanda contacted me straight away to inform me the outcome - which was always favorable. I did not get a felony and did not have to go to jail (only home detention). Just DUI classes, pay a fine, and MADD class. He even reduced his fee since I was wracking up so many cases in a short period. (had an addiction issue) Joshua Price is not only an excellent attorney who delivers wondrous outcomes, but is super easy to talk with since he really cares about his clients. Highly recommend!

Mr. Price provides awesome legal advice, and puts more than enough effort to succeed. He knows how to navigate the system like no other and is fiercely competitive in court. As I saw first hand, he truly has a hunger to win, and is one of the top DUI lawyers in the state of CA. Brilliant lawyer! I wa...s charged with a first offense DUI where you blew a .08/.08 Breath and had a .08 blood test; Mr. Price was able to get the DUI charges completely dismissed and got a plea deal to a non-DUI offense with minimal fines and only a 12 hour class instead of a 36 hour class! Mr. Price won my DMV hearing so I did not have to face any license suspension or get an SR-22 for 3 years! Mr. Price had found 2 ways to win my DMV hearing: one where I would have to spend about $800 on witnesses and another where I had to spend no money and that is the way we won! It was like a game of chess with the DMV, but Mr. Price navigated the system like a pro and WON! I have to express my heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Price for all the care and concern he showed me, and for working tirelessly to ensure that the law worked in our favor. If it weren't for his analytical skills and knowledge, the matter would have gone the other way. I will never forget what he's done to make sure I was given a fair shake! I was overwhelmed when I heard the outcome of the court proceedings. I appreciate the fact that Mr. Price protected my interest and ensured my job security. I am beyond thankful for his service, and professionalism. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him to anyone facing the aforementioned charges!!!
