This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

I give him 6 out of 5 stars!

I have consulted with Joshua Curtis several times over the years since I've known him about various real estate matters. He is always a great listener, wise, kind, responsive and explains things well to me. He's helped me through some difficult situations. Now that I'm seeking a lawyer for a mat...ter that is not his field, I'm realizing how rare it is to find a lawyer like him. He's full of integrity and treats his clients well. I highly recommend him!

Responsive and knowledgeable

Great phone consultation with Joshua, I had a complicated property issue, he spoke with me as long as I needed, answered all my questions and didn’t feel rushed. He is an expert in his field of practice.

No Communication

Josh Curtis came as a recommended probate attorney from a trusted source, but...his communication was "really over-the-top" bad. I never got any responses to emails or voice mails I left. To get any information on overdue status I had to call the front desk to ask the receptionist to get some help. A... very uncomplicated probate took over a year and a half to finally wrap up. He was kind, and apologetic about it, but then kept up the same 'no communication' going forward. The 1 star rating is for his effort to rectify his admitted mistakes by lowering his charges.

Prompt Response and Logical Advice

I contacted Joshua for advice on a problem stemming from a property I am currently renting. He replied within the hour of my communication via e-mail and we set a phone conference the following morning. We discussed my options and he provided me with sound-logical advice and recommended a course of... action to diffuse an escalating situation. It was obvious that he took the time to thoroughly review my correspondence and we worked towards a consensus moving forward that has hopefully resolved the matter. He provided me with a sense of security by acknowledging my interpretation of the law, and provided me concise explanations to help me understand my rights under the law. We concluded our conversation with Joshua assuring me that if the situation was not rectified, he would further pursue the matter and intercede on my behalf if it became necessary. He is extremely energetic and works to covey the law to his clients in a way that is easy to understand. He worked through the issue in a logical way and I believe he provided me with the best possible advice in handling my unique situation. I feel confident in moving forward now that I have a sense of security that someone of his ability and enthusiasm is on my side. I have no doubt I will seek his counsel in the future for any situation that falls in his area of expertise. I highly recommend contacting him if you're looking for an attorney that is invested in his clients best interests and empathetic to their particular siuation and concerns.

Great Probate Lawyer

I came to attorney Curtis 2 years ago for help in handling my daughter's estate. He was very competent & helpful. Josh carefully guided me through all the steps and actions needed to properly handle her estate. He made the whole process much easier during a very stressful time. I now strongly recom...mend him to anyone needing a good probate/estate planning lawyer. I've also heard from some of his clients that he is an equally good business & real estate lawyer.
