Josh did a great job and put in a ton of effort into my case. He really stood out from the other lawyers in the court house. If you’re questioning retaining him don’t.
Joshua was helpful and reassurance right from the start. I called him at 7pm on a Sunday night and he immediately answered my call. I told him the details of my case/charges and he helped put away a lot of my fears. He was able to resolve my case within two weeks and I got the best possible results from his as my lawyer. Everything went as planned/expected and he always answered my calls and addressed my concerns asap. He was truly an amazing person to have standing by my side and I was so fortunate to have him representing me. He was professional and well respected by everyone in court as well, I felt proud to have him as my lawyer. Thank you Joshua again and I STRONGLY recommend this gentleman as a lawyer.
Josh made the court process quick and easy. He got the best outcome for the situation I was put in and the communication of what I needed to do was clear. Highly recommended!!
Commend for professional approach and always top of the things.
Ive never hired or worked with a lawyer before. I think we can all agree it can be a little intimidating. Josh was the first and only lawyer I reached out to late Sunday night after reading 5 star review after 5 star review. He immediately called me first thing the next morning and answered all my questions right away. He was extremely attentive, understanding, knowledgable, and kept my parents and I in the loop every step of the way. He put our minds at ease and set out to do exactly as he said. I could go on forever with how wonderful Josh, his office, and the whole process was. If you find yourself in a legal pickle, dont hesitate to have Josh Macktaz on your side!!
I recently had a driving incident that required me to seek an attorney. It was my fault, but it was being blown out of proportion, and I needed help. I told Josh my side of the story, that there were circumstances that made it difficult to discern. It wasn't a cut and dry case. Josh took the time to look into it himself. He saw for himself what i was saying that no one believed. He then got the prosecutor to review the evidence that they weren't presented with, and as a result, the penalties were reduced to a level that was more suited to the offense. I can not thank him enough for all his time and effort. I would suggest him in any criminal case.
He did a good job and kept good communication throughout the whole process,would hire again 100%
Josh did a great job he made me feel very comfortable in a not so good situation. He help my boyfriend and when i ran into my situation I didn't hesitate to give him a call back to help me and he didn't disappoint thank you again josh Priscilla
Mr. Macktaz is an excellent defense attorney. He is extremely experienced, very knowledgeable and detail orientated. We got the best possible outcome for our case. I would have no hesitation in recommending Josh.
Where do I start? Most likely, you’re in need of a lawyer and reading reviews to find someone who can help. Well, look no further because….Mistakes happen to good people! I was in need of legal advice and a few friends said, “CALL MACKTAZ!” Fortunately I never needed to seek legal advice until a recent arrest. I explained my situation to Joshua Macktaz via email and within 24hours i receive a call from him. NOT a paralegal or an associate. It was him! I explained the unfortunate circumstances again in which He listened and executed with a plan! Everything he mentioned from DAY 1 was accurate! HE was able to have my case dismissed AND expunged!!!! I remember telling Joshua that after speaking with him the very first time that i felt a sense of relief. Anyone can tell you anything they want over the phone but, believe me, he did EVERYTHING he said he was going to do! You can just tell by the way he carries himself in the courtroom. He is CONFIDENT AND DEDICATED! If you’re reading this and looking for the best Criminal Lawyer in Rhode Island. This is your guy! MACKTAZ!!!!
It was a pleasure working with Joshua. He did everything he promised me that he would do plus a little more. He was very quick with his responses and explained everything thoroughly since day 1. If it’s your first time in a situation and you’re not sure who to call, Josh is your guy.
Josh made the court processes as quick and painless as possible. My expectations and tasks were clearly laid out, and he was always quick to reply with any further instructions. The outcome of my case was great and turned out even better than expected. Highly recommend!
We hired Josh immediately after speaking to him on the phone. I knew that he was going to do a good job. We had great results from the process, and he made the experience very easy. This gentleman cares, and knows his law. Look no further. Thank you Josh.
Joshua handled my case with utmost professionalism and secured the best possible outcome for me. He took the time to help me understand my options, making the entire process much easier. I couldn't have asked for more and would definitely recommend his services!
Mr. Macktaz responded quickly to emails and calls, and was extremely friendly and helpful. As a young driver, he helped me out a lot while also being very respectful and not talking down to me.
Josh was fantastic to work with. From the first inquiry call, he was extremely informative, professional, and was able to ease all my concerns and confusion. I highly recommend.
Solid man did everything he said he would no complaints
I cannot recommend Joshua highly enough! From the initial consultation to the very end, I knew I was in incredibly competent hands. Joshua’s deep understanding of Rhode Island law is evident—he knows it like the back of his hand. But what really sets him apart is how much he truly cares. He listened to my concerns, provided thoughtful advice, and made me feel confident throughout the entire process. If you need a lawyer who is highly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested, Joshua is the best person for the job!
Very quick response to be my legal counsel I felt like I was in good hands. And we got the results we wanted definitely recommend Joshua
Mr. Macktaz was extremely helpful. Great communicator and helps get the job done efficiently and smoothly. Highly recommend.
Josh handled a criminal matter for me which potentially could've jepardized my licensing for my current career. I couldn't have asked for better representation. Josh was in constant communication with me, always keeping me informed of the case status . He always returned my calls and emails expeditiously, which is unheard of in the legal world. Josh took the necessary time to meet with me and go over the facts of the case and explain procedurally what would take place. Josh was able to obtain the desired outcome that I was hoping for, which saved me the cost of two years of graduate school and a license. His years as a prosecutor and in private practice were evident in his professional demeanor both in and outside the courtroom. I would wholeheartedly recommend Josh to anyone seeking the highest quality of legal representation .
Josh was knowledgeable, quick to respond, reasonably priced, and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. All of my concerns were addressed, charges were dropped, and I was more than happy to make a small donation to the humane society in lieu of any penalties. Thanks again for all your time and help!!!
Josh Macktaz is the man!!! Very professional and communicative during the entire process. He’s very well respected within the court rooms of RI and it’s obvious it’s because of his many years of experience and great rapport. Helped turn around a pretty heavy situation, can’t thank him enough.
Joshua Mactaz took my call, after reviewing my case in an email sent to him. He was honest thorough, and concise. He advised me not to waste my time appealing my case since he thought it was all but hopeless based on his experience. Many other attorneys would have gone for the money and told me God knows what. Joshua is like a good, honest mechanic. When you bring your car in, he doesn't tell you you need a Johnson rod. He tells you that it's something that you can attend to yourself and so why waste money. If and when I need representation in his part of the world, I will not hesitate to call him again.
Josh has been a calming voice through some very troubling times. Completely professional and on top of his game. I would recommend him to anyone. His card is in my wallet at all times. -Ken
Mr. Macktaz was absolutely phenomenal. Very professional, fast results, and would 100% recommend.
Josh was great! He was professional, informative, and reassuring through the whole process. Highly recommend his services if/when needed.
Josh recently assisted me in a difficult matter. His experience and guidance was extremely valuable for me to navigate it to the best possible outcome. Throughout the process he clearly communicated everything I needed to know. I’d recommend Josh in any matter to assist to avoid an unfavorable result.
Josh was hands down the most communicative person I have ever dealt with on a professional basis in my life! His extensive knowledge of the situation and the system involved provided us with everything we needed to know to achieve the best results possible. The most impressive qualities about Josh were his abilities to bring both compassionate understanding and hard realities to the table to come up with best plan of action.
Mr. Macktaz is an extremely responsive and professional lawyer. When it came to my case he was already on top of the situation and I had full confidence in his skills: between a practicing lawyer and a former prosecutor of over 31 years experience I was confident in his experience and he fought to seek justice and clear me from the charges set against me. As I did nothing criminal he saw that nothing criminal occurred either. In my high opinion I sought for the best lawyer and I truly feel that Mr. Joshua Macktaz, Esq. is the best lawyer. He made a worrisome situation more at ease and I was never misled. I strongly recommend Mr. Macktaz if you are in need of a good lawyer. He’s definitely worth the price and I appreciate the service he provided me.

S. Josh Macktaz is by far without a doubt, the best choice for your criminal defense attorney. We were referred to him by a family member that had a great deal of success with Josh as his lawyer. Now, not ever having the need for a lawyer for any reason in our lives… this was a very upsetting and distressing and emotional situation.

His professionalism and ability to explain everything about what is ahead of us is unparalleled. He detailed the entire process and gave us his word that everything would work out in our best interest and as good of an outcome as we can expect. He was right!!!

Precision, professionalism and most important…results
I just wanted to send you a huge THANK YOU for taking care of my case with precision, professionalism, and most important…results. Not being from RI, I didn’t have the network that I have here in Massachusetts/Boston area so I felt a bit lost. Actually, very lost. Though referred to you by an acquaintance, I felt at ease working with you right out the gate. (Not an easy thing for me) Life has been amazing after getting through that ordeal and I have to give you credit for making things just a bit easier to get to this point. Thank you very much for what you did for me. I wanted to send just so you know I really appreciate the work you performed on my behalf.
