About

I am a former prosecutor who has handled thousands of cases.  I have appeared in front of numerous judges and understand the system from both sides of the aisle.  You are going to want someone you trust in this process so you can navigate the best possible outcome for your case.  Let me help you find that route that allows you to continue on with life.  When I was ten, my family of seven set out from Colorado to see various places along the east coast.  There was no GPS back then and my dad entrusted me with the map. During that trip I would study the map at nearly every mile marker and route out a plan.  I learned the map key for the type of roads and their speed limits, typical rush hour times, found mileages, gas stations and more. As the miles rolled on my dad would lean over and ask about options as an accident was seen, or a pit stop was needed.  I was quickly able to give him options and he decided which way to go.  As we concluded the trip he thanked me for getting us to our destination.Upon becoming a defense attorney, friends, family or other acquaintances seemed to come out of nowhere to ask me about my profession.  They tersely asked, "How is it that you can defend someone who is guilty?"  My responses have varied only slightly over the years, but they always revolve around one main issue- NAVIGATION.  I was a deputy district attorney for many years and was able to handle thousands of criminal cases, which varied widely and the people who were charged came from all walks of life.  But, as I met with these people they always had questions about the judicial process.  I found that it did not matter whether you were pulled over for a speeding ticket or charged with first degree murder, every person did not know exactly what was going to happen next or what they should do.  They needed something similar to what my dad needed, a navigator.  Whether that is preserving innocence or providing mitigation due to an uncharacteristic mistake, I am here to help guide you through the process and make sure you are not taken advantage of.

Mr. Lindley was a great resource and help to my case. He took the time to explain the process and was knowledgeable of the law. I recommend his services and expertise!

I moved out of state and discovered i had some previous charges that i was unaware of, I contacted Mr.Lindley about them as a consultation at first and we spoke a bit about the matters at hand and i decided to go ahead and have him represent me. (and I was not disappointed!!!) He was extremely professional and kept me VERY well informed about my case and any and all specifics related to it. He was very prompt in returning my calls and e-mails. If i had to go through anything like this again, i would ABSOLUTELY have Mr.Lindley represent me again. with full support, I fully recommend him to everyone, friends, family, everyone. All the driving issues I've encountered throughout this endeavor and he had answers for me every step of the way and was very quick, to the point and just down right as professional as they come.

I was facing lufe changing felony charges. I sought out Joshua based on onserving him in action in the courtroom. im extrememy pleased with his professionalism and RESULTS. He was able to get my case dropped through staying on top of every detail in the process. He advised at every step which was comforting to my inexperience with the justice system. I highly recommend Joshua. He listens and advocates for your rights.

Having previously been free of any criminal record my entire life, I had recently gotten into some legal trouble, as a result of a verbal dispute with my then live in, separated wife. The cops were eventually called by an unknown party and long story short, I was subsequently arrested for a level 3 misdemeanor charge of harrassment. This charge had threatened to ruin any chance of a meaningful career for me and also would have stripped me of my 2nd Amendment Rights for life! I am a 35 year old Army veteran and had NEVER been arrested. I decided to hire the best lawyer I could possibly find. I came across the James Newby Law Firm in Colorado Springs on Google and saw they had stellar reviews. I called their firm and consulted with Joshua Lindley. He immediately put my mind at ease and I KNEW he was The ONE! All throughout the following months and subsequent legal proceedings, I knew Joshua Lindley was in my corner, fighting for me. We maintained good contact through phone and emails and I was confident I would beat these baseless charges with Joshua on my side. Mr. Lindley eventually negotiated what is called a PPIR ( pre-plea investigative report) which allowed me to meet with counselors are tell MY side of the story. Well, this turned out to be a very positive outcome because the PPIR report came back favorably and at my next court date, I got ALL my charges dropped and sealed! It was a great day and the best outcome possible. I now am free to own and operate firearms again and can legally say I was never arrested. I would highly recommend Joshua Lindley, as he is a competent, capable, reliable, honest attorney!

Outstanding representation and person. He not only did an outstanding job in my case and explained everything to me but was a great guy to talk to during the whole process. Always kept me up to date and was in continuous communication regarding my claim.

Josh was absolutely amazing from the very beginning. The moment I left his office after our first encounter I felt a huge waited had been lifted off of me. I have been on probation for 3 years, I only wish I had met him earlier in this process and I feel like it would have been completely different for me. He returned calls and emails promptly, and made me have hope for the first time in that 3 years. Went to court he did exactly as he said he would and I was done, finally. If you ever need a criminal attorney he is the absolute best hands down!! He cares a lot and is truly interested in you as a person not what you may have done!! He is honest, reliable, very friendly and will not over charge you like unfortunately some do!! I would recommend him to anyone at anytime. I obviously plan to stay out of anything like that again, but if something were to ever happen I would definitely be using him again!! Thank you Josh you are the best!!!!!!!!!
