Please join us in congratulating Hone Maxwell LLP Managing Partner Josh Maxwell for his inaugural appearance on The Best Lawyers in America® annual list. The 2025 edition recognizes Josh for his tax law practice based on a methodology that includes thorough research and a peer survey of legal industry professionals worldwide.
The international tax law attorney, who is also a CPA, has an extensive background in accounting and finance that provides a strategic and knowledgeable foundation for his tax controversy, reporting, audit defense and collections issues work. The San Diego-based attorney prioritizes building relationships with partners and clients around the globe. Recognizing the value he and the team could bring to individuals and business in Asia and Mexico, he led the firm’s expansion into Tijuana in 2023 and Singapore earlier this year.
