Josh has frequently served as "counsel to the profession" or trial counsel to other law firms and lawyers.

On several occasions Josh has represented lawyers or doctors involved in disciplinary proceedings and, if uninsured, in malpractice cases. Josh has been appointed by the Chief Administrative Judge of the New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan to serve on the Court's Malpractice Case Management Committee. He serves on the Board of Directors of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association and has also been designated as a mediator in many malpractice cases involving uninsured or bankrupt hospitals, helping plaintiffs and defendants reach amicable settlements on cases which languished for many years before mediation.
