Every case is unique and depends on its specific facts, applicable law, and the parties involved. Some case details have been modified or withheld to comply with confidentiality requirements.

Most large plaintiff firms display aggregate numbers — $900 million recovered by hundreds of attorneys across thousands of cases over decades. That is an institutional number, not a personal one.
Every result listed here was achieved by Josh Hopkins personally — not a team, not a lead attorney overseeing associates. Josh investigated the case, handled the depositions, engaged the experts, and tried or settled the matter himself.
That is what board certification and 33 years of plaintiff-only practice delivers: a single attorney who is personally accountable for every case in his office.
