They helped me fight a case for 5 years the outcome wasn’t fully what I expected but it wasn’t because of them but more so cause of the company I was suing. Josh and his office staff always had time to answer any of my questions or address any of my concerns via phone or email. I appreciate all the help and would recommend to anyone looking to sue.

Josh Fiedman and his team made navigating the hellish nitemare of the Workmans Comp program much easier. It was actually oddly delightful to be able to work along side professionals and see first hand how the system operated. We were able to come to a fair conclusion promptly without much delay. Now I am back on my way with a full recovery on the horizon. Thank you Josh for all the guidance. If I am ever in a situation that requires your expertise again I will surely be in touch.
Cheers,

The Friedman's have been overseeing my workman's comp case for 10 years, in which I suffered a permanent injury.
I cannot express enough gratitude for their continued management of my case against a very large and powerful corporation of which I have no doubt that I would have been treated very differently, had I not chosen to have professional and expert representation.
They will also help refer you to a legitimate doctor that actually will take on a workman's comp case and perform the necessary surgeries should you need them as I did.
Bless you Mr Lester and Joshua Friedman.

In August 2016, After interviewing several other worker comp attorneys, I chose Atty Joshua Friedman and have been blessed. Joshua made me feel comfortable from the beginning, answered my questions. He is kind, knowledgeable and efficient. He is still my attorney and keeps me informed. I'm very thankful to him. His office staff are also helpful and knowledgeable, especially Tammy. If someone doesn't know the answer I get a call back. As far as the unkind name calling made to Lester Friedman I will say I have spoken to him twice in the past briefly and he came across as kind, knowledgeable

Mr. Lester Friedman and his son Josh, rescued me from another firm called Peyman Rhamana, and things started moving, got me to the right doctors, and I received the surgeries I needed. Always returned emails, and phone calls. I was actually referred to them from a workers comp attorney on the "other side" who said, "I hate to see these guys in court, because they're good." My case didn't go to court, and I received a nice settlement for my injury. It did take a while, but that is my understanding for most workers comp injuries.

A YELP review seems insufficient as a way to say thank you to Lester Friedman. He has been so kind and caring to me and to my family that I really want to take time to recommend his service to others. He handled a workman's compensation case for my cousin who has a lot of issues. He was compassionate and caring and went way out of his way for my cousin at a time when my cousin had no one else to turn to. And he won this case and helped my cousin financially tremendously. But more important than the financial impact of his work, to me, has been the heart and humanity he showed throughout this

Mr. Friedman was incredibly helpful to me. After sustaining a hand injury at work and being put on workers comp, I didn't know any of my legal options. Fortunately, I didn't have to take my case to court or do any litigation, but Mr. Friedman was an fantastic advisor. He was patient with me, letting me know I had options to the kind of medical care I received. As a result, I am in with an amazing hand specialist at a state of the art physical therapy center. He also promptly returned all of my phone calls and never made me feel rushed. He had a confidence in his tone and demeanor that

I would give this law firm a zero star if I could. Called Mr. Friedman for a consult regarding an injury that I was worried about.
I didn't want to give him all the information over the phone because this was my first conversation with him.
Mr. Friedman quickly told me that he couldn't help me and hung up the phone.
Go elsewhere if you want an attorney who actually cares.
