Hire Josh Webb !
I was unfortunate to have been arrested for a potential damaging charge of a DUI and losing my job. A friend recommended Josh Webb and said he would be the best attorney to help me through this experience and he was right! Not only did he get me the best out come in my case, he had also had my charge expunged from my record. I can't thank Mr. Webb enough for his class, professionalism, and friendship.

High Fives...
At first meeting Mr. Webb I was nervous as I have never hired a lawyer before as I have not had the need to. I got lucky to say the least with Mr. Josh Webb. A friend referred him to me and told me about his personal experience in the courtroom, out of courtroom, etc. with Mr. Webb and everything is as easy going as it can possibly be in a very serious situation I put myself in. Mr. Webb relieved most of my apprehension right away as I can tell when someone is good at their job, and he is. In and out of courtroom is how Mr. Webb likes to roll, just don't be late and he won't tax you like I think he should, maybe. Very professional and I haven't seen or heard about anything he can not handle. Would highly recommend Mr. Josh Webb to anyone I know in much confidence. Stay out of trouble or hire this kind of lawyer!

Outstanding Lawyer
I hired Mr Webb to deal with a potential criminal situation and he was outstanding. He went above and beyond to research my situation and keep me informed. He was extremely fair with his rates as well. If you need need someone you can trust and are not sure where to turn Mr. Webb is your guy. If you might be in a bind there is no need to look any further. Great Attorney!

Worst criminal attorney in Santa Barbara
We recently hired Josh to defend a relative in a criminal issue. After taking a huge chunk of money, and even at one point asking for, and getting more, he ended up doing next to nothing, including only meeting 2 times for less than 30min with the client over a very long period of time. Was a horror story. After consulting with other attorneys we found out most of what he had advised was not based in reality or correct. Something VERY off here.

Worst Lawyer in Santa Barbara
I am not sure if the personal problems he had back in 2009 that resulted in the American Bar Association slapping his hand are again at play but this lawyer has ghosted us after getting paid, basically just did nothing. Would never recommend him. I don't believe this behavior would allow most attorneys to continue practicing if it was discovered by the ABA.

"I endorse this lawyer. I have heard nothing but positive and wonderful accolades for this attorney. I admire the zeal and passion other attorneys have utilized in support of Attorney Webb. Its a rare situation when peers in the legal profession so compliment another. From that stand point alone, I would endorse Attorney Webb as worthy of a client's consideration."

"I have had the honor of knowing Joshua since law school where he was admired by his classmates for his outstanding skills. He then worked on honing those skills for years as a prosecutor where he became a seasoned trial attorney. Currently, he is using his experience as a former prosecutor to help those in need of a top-notch advocate. He is an expert on the inner workings of our legal system and constitently receives outstanding results for his clients. If one is ever in need of a great lawyer they should call Joshua. They will be glad they did."
