Joshua Embden is a New York City personal injury attorney and Associate at Leav & Steinberg LLP, representing individuals seriously injured by the negligence of others.
Joshua’s practice includes car accidents, premises liability, construction accidents, and other complex personal injury cases throughout New York City. His career reflects the firm’s commitment to developing talented trial advocates from within: he first joined Leav & Steinberg as a paralegal, working alongside attorneys and clients at every stage of litigation and developing a deep understanding of case strategy, client advocacy, and securing results for injured New Yorkers.
After two years of law school, Joshua pursued bar admission through New York’s law office study program (22 NYCRR § 520.4), clerking under name partner Edward Steinberg. This rigorous apprenticeship let him train directly under the firm’s most experienced trial attorneys, gaining real-world litigation experience most lawyers don’t see until years into practice.
After his admission to the New York bar, Joshua returned to Leav & Steinberg as an Associate Attorney. Having worked both the legal and litigation-support sides of a case, he provides thorough, practical, and compassionate representation grounded in communication, preparation, and attention to detail. A fluent Spanish speaker, Joshua advocates directly for Spanish-speaking injury victims and their families across New York.
