Josh is an excellent attorney, and I am glad that I chose to seek assistance from his firm. Both Josh and his Associate Ben helped make an overwhelming situation feel managable. They were available and easy to talk to, and handled sensitive issues with the utmost tact and professionalism. They are extremely knowledgeable in the field of labor and employment law, and demonstrated a genuine respect for the personal, human concerns underlying my legal issue. Both of these gentleman far exceeded my expectations in working with an attorney. I would highly recommend Mr. Erlich's firm to anyone needing legal assistance in this area.

I highly recommend Josh. He did an excellent job for me and really demonstrated highly skilled expertise and superior knowledge in this area of law. I was distraught at my situation and did not know what to do. When I spoke with Josh, I knew I had found a good lawyer; and he proved this many times over as we went through the legal process. I absolutely give Josh the highest rating possible recommend him without reservation. He is a man of integrity and demonstrates this in his dealings and practice. I am so glad to have met him and been represented by him.

Josh was very helpful, getting me a consult set up within the time frame I needed. He reviewed the entire retirement package I asked him to help me with. He explained the legal issues with each part of the package I'd highlighted to ask questions about. Josh even pointed out one section which I'd overlooked and he explained in layman's terms what it meant and why it was important. After my consult with Josh, and based on his recommendation I was much more comfortable signing the agreement. I'm glad I went to see him for assistance.

I was in a horrible place when my previous attorney left his practice, and my case after nine years of litigation. No other attorney would help me and I searched for months for someone who would pick up where he left off, finally being lucky enough to find Josh. Not only did he find a solution to my case within a month, which my previous attorney couldn't do in nine years, but he even stuck around after finding that my previous attorney had put a lean against the settlement that none of us had known about. Not only is Mr. Erlich wonderful at what he does, but he is a genuinely good person. I would recommend him and his firm to anyone in need of an attorney. I was assaulted by a police officer, so not only was my case an incredibly hard case to fight, it is an extremely hard case to win, and if it wasn't for Mr. Erlich I would probably never be able to get the help I need in fixing the physical and emotional damage it caused, but I am, all thanks to the Erlich Law Office. Thanks again Josh, you really are an amazing attorney and a wonderful person!

As a first-timer at seeking legal consultation, I was very anxious and nervous about how I would be treated, especially since I wasn't sure whether I even had a case. I had tried going to the state for info and advice, I had tried researching on the Internet, I had exhausted all options and I had exhausted myself in the process. So I called the Erlich Law Office. I was touched by how immediately responsive they were to my issue, helping me right away over the phone. Throughout my dealings with them, I found both Mr. Erlich and Mr. Owen to be empathetic and patient. They never made me feel like I was wasting their time and they treated my issue like it actually mattered. They are professional and compassionate. You couldn't ask for a better combination!

I came across this firm purely because of it's close location by my house and I ended up being SO HAPPY that I simply lucked into finding such a good lawyer, so I figured I should write reviews! Joshua was really professional and empathetic right from our first meeting. It wasn't a great situation to be in, but it was so reassuring having somebody to explain my options and all the really confusing aspects of employment law relating to my issue, and also help me understand what to expect next in the process. He checked in with me frequently, his fee was reasonable, and I felt like he worked really hard for my cause. I don't have any other experience with lawyers, but I know who I would contact first if I ever had another issue. Joshua and his partner James were a huge help to me.

I would highly recommend against going here for a consult and recommend saving your money. I went in with specific goals and hoping to leave feeling more confident and with a set plan to move forward, and left feeling very confused and uncertain how to proceed. I met with Josh and a colleague and for 350 dollars, got less questions firmly answered and also did not feel like my time there was very valued. For instance, in the middle of the meeting a call went through that interrupted the session, and his colleague's phone rang twice. Furthermore, I felt very rushed to end early when he made a statement like "we still have some time but I think that's it" and we started a few minutes late/ended a few minutes early. I think it's important to value client's time and as a whole-I would avoid this law office if you want to feel: valued, heard, and confident about your case. 350 dollars may not be a lot for Josh, but it's a lot of money to most people.

I trusted he was looking out for my best interest and while on retainer he arrived to meeings too timid. He arrived at one important meeting without any documents. I believe he was over his head in the case and should have told me. It turned out I am still being tormented, out the money and there were times he was too trustworthy of a court attorney who is now in the public eye for corruption. He believed what they were saying and I guess now he knows they were lying. He should have spoken for me, instead he would tell me the lawyer on the other side was trustworthy. Turns out not only the opposing attorney;,
