About Joshua
Biography
My areas of concentration are Family Law, Personal Injury, and Veteran's rights/benefits.
If you are looking for an attorney who knows the law and will treat you with the respect and care you deserve I am your man.
The client is number one and I believe in developing a close relationship with her/him. People come to lawyers during the most difficult times of their lives and they count on their attorney to not just have legal expertise but to be their champion and ally. A client is never a file to me; a client is always a real person whom I will do everything I can to serve. Through meticulous attention to detail and a thorough knowledge of the law I am able to better get what my client deserves
As a twenty year veteran of the US Navy integrity, honesty, and service is ingrained in my very being. I will always be honest with you and you will know you can always count on me.
I have extensive training in litigation and received a concentration in Family Law with honors from Quinnipiac University School of Law. I am also a Connecticut certified Guardian Ad Litem
