Josh Cooley, Attorney at Law, graduated from the The George Washington University Law Center in Washington, D.C. While in Law School, Josh fell in love with Alaska while interning at the Alaska Public Defender Office in Kenai.
Immediately after graduating, however, Josh set out to shape his litigation practice in one of the biggest and busiest markets in the country: Miami. In his first year, he received the Statewide Public Defender College Best Advocate Award. In less than five years, Josh moved from the Juvenile and Misdemeanor Crimes Divisions to being an "A" Felony Attorney handling only murder, attempted murder, and armed robbery with a firearm. Those first four years of Josh's practice helped shape him into the seasoned, aggressive, and strategic litigator that he is today.
Josh has conducted over 1,000 depositions and handled more than 50 jury trials as lead counsel. Josh now focuses his practice on getting full civil money justice for clients injured by the negligence and recklessness of others.

If I was facing a serious Felony Charge, I would want Josh Coley on the case. He is fearless and aggressive litigator and has a great mind for legal strategy. Highly recommend!

You get the best of both worlds with Josh. He isn't only tenacious, but smartly so. Rough and tumble when necessary, excellent negotiator when carrot gains more than the stick. Having represented co-defendants together and worked around one another for a few years now, I happily endorse Josh Cooley. He truly is a smart, zealous advocate that knows how to best advance his clients’ interests.

I've known Josh Cooley for a long time now and have always considered him to be one of the best, if not the best, attorney I've been fortunate enough to work with. I was his co-counsel on several jury trials and every time I was able to learn something new & invaluable from Josh Cooley. Though I have only seen Josh Cooley in court representing persons accused of criminal offenses, I would not hesitate to hire him myself for any legal matter - regardless of the area of law.
Jacob Scott, Criminal defense Attorney on May 15, 2016
Relationship: Friend
I've know Josh for many years, and I wouldn't want anyone else to represent me. From the time we worked in the same legal clinic in law school, he has been a tireless advocate for his clients. Josh doesn't let a difficult case, or personal inconvenience, or exhaustion slow him down. When you hire Josh, you will be the most important person he knows until he's seen you through to the end.

Having worked with him on a criminal trial, I know Mr. Cooley to be a fierce courtroom advocate with an unmatched work ethic. His cross-examination skills are truly exceptional. I endorse him wholeheartedly. If I needed a criminal lawyer in Alaska he'd be the first person I'd call.

I endorse this lawyer. First-rate legal mind. Exceptional and experienced trial lawyer. Josh is an unrelenting advocate for his clients that is well respected in the legal community.
