Joshua Hodges

Josh Hodges is not a typical lawyer, and his path to practicing law was anything but typical. Soon after high school, Josh worked full-time in factories while attending classes at Miami Hamilton, often surviving on very little sleep. He graduated with honors and understands firsthand what it means to work hard through difficult seasons of life. That perspective matters when clients come to him during some of the hardest moments they will ever face. After earning his law degree Summa Cum Laude from Salmon P. Chase College of Law, where he served as Student Bar Association President and National Treasurer of the NLLSA, Josh was recruited to one of the largest law firms in the Midwest, where he worked on high-stakes civil litigation representing major corporations and governmental entities. That experience gave him valuable insight into how insurance companies and corporate defense teams approach serious injury claims. Josh later returned home to Hamilton, Ohio, where he lives and serves the community he cares deeply about. Today, as a Partner at Kruger & Hodges Hometown Injury Lawyers, Josh handles serious personal injury cases throughout Ohio, including trucking accidents, wrongful death claims, and catastrophic injury cases. Unlike many high-volume firms, Josh intentionally keeps his caseload limited so clients receive direct attention and personalized representation. His team recovered more than $10 million for injured Ohioans in 2025 alone. Beyond the courtroom, Josh mentors lawyers across the country and highlights local businesses and community leaders through his social media platform, @TheHometownLawyer. He lives in Hamilton with his wife, son, and daughter and remains deeply committed to the people and communities he serves.
