"Being honest from my own experience I would never hire him again or recommend him to anybody. He was more interested in his profile and getting favorism from the prosecutor side than actually looking out for what I wanted. He gave me false advice, me taking Joshi advice caused me to get more jail time than I would have if I would have just stuck to what I planned . He would not let me voice my opinion . I tell people again and again to not hire him. His staff were nice but had to follow along with what Joshi was saying. Joshi is crooked and overly boast about his work when he couldn’t even give me honest legal advice. He wanted to help the prosecutor get convictions, not actually help or win my case then boast that he’s the best lawyer in the town when he’s not. It makes me sick. But this is a game most lawyers play in the system so I try not be upset at the situation but he’s definitely not the most honest lawyer. If you have a criminal case, hire someone else. He made me sign a “death” deal when I believe he knew in his heart he could of did more, but like I said he was looking for status and favor with the state and it end up costing me a lot . This is not a sincere man. He will look out for what he wants and his profile before your best interest. I would of been far more better off hiring someone else. Oh also not to mention, he is a creep! He only seen me in person a handful of times but when he did he was creepy, he pulled money out in front of me, would show me his “workout results”, made me extremely uncomfortable. I wondered with a serious situation like mine, how can his mind go that way he was supposed to be helping me. Sick boastful man from what I’ve seen. He only cares about himself. He would not let me voice my opinion he had already had it put out in his mind what he wanted before we ever had a conversation and that was to side with the prosecutors. He did not care about my case. I was young and native but if I had any advice now it would be run from this man."
