LGBTQ RIGHTS

The lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community has fought and continues to fight diligently for civil rights in the court system - and LGBTQ+ adults and children need passionate and motivated representation for issues that come up at work, at home, in public and with friends and family.

Attorney Josh (Langdon) Hooser has been working hard on behalf of the LGBTQ community since he worked for the Human Rights Campaign prior to law school. Throughout his legal career he has used cutting-edge techniques and legal theories to get his clients the relief they and their families deserve.
