Had an excellent experience!

It was my first time working with Mr Brownstein. He was very professional and got everything done that I needed him to. He was courteous and tried not to run up my bill by being conscious of time, etc. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great attorney.

Excellent attorney

Josh is an exceptional attorney with a deep knowledge base. He is an excellent communicator and provides very helpful legal guidance. I hired Josh to advise me and eventually file a lawsuit against a neighbor.

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.
