Josh Wood is the founding attorney of Wood Injury Law, a personal injury law firm based in Mesa, Arizona. With more than 20 years of legal and law enforcement experience, Josh has dedicated his career to representing individuals and families who have been seriously injured due to the negligence of others.
Josh is a graduate of the University of Nevada-Las Vegas, where he earned his law degree. Before opening his own practice, Josh gained invaluable experience on both sides of the legal system. He served as a law enforcement officer with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, where he developed a deep understanding of accident investigation, evidence collection, and the real-world impact that serious injuries have on victims and their families.
After his time in law enforcement, Josh transitioned into the legal field and worked as a defense attorney for one of the nation's largest auto insurance companies. This experience gave him direct insight into how insurance carriers evaluate claims, minimize payouts, and use delay tactics to pressure injured people into accepting less than they deserve. That inside knowledge now works in favor of every client Josh represents.
Josh left the insurance defense world because he wanted to help the people who needed it most. He saw firsthand how insurance companies treated accident victims, and he made the decision to fight for injured individuals rather than against them. Today, he brings that same determination and insider knowledge to every personal injury case he handles.

Choosing the right personal injury attorney can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case. Here is what sets Josh Wood apart from other attorneys in the Mesa, Arizona area:
Insurance Industry Insider Knowledge. Most personal injury attorneys have never worked for an insurance company. Josh has. He spent years as a defense attorney for one of the largest auto insurers in the country. He knows exactly how adjusters evaluate claims, what triggers them to increase or decrease settlement offers, and what tactics they use to delay and deny legitimate claims. When Josh negotiates on your behalf, the insurance company knows they are dealing with someone who understands their playbook.
Law Enforcement Background. Josh’s years with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department gave him hands-on experience with accident scenes, evidence documentation, and witness interviews. He understands what makes a strong case from an investigative standpoint, and he applies that knowledge to build the most compelling case possible for each client.
Personalized Attention to Every Case. At Wood Injury Law, clients work directly with Josh. He does not hand cases off to paralegals or junior associates. When you call the office, Josh is the one who knows the details of your case, returns your calls, and makes the strategic decisions that affect your recovery. This one-on-one approach means each client receives the focused attention their case deserves.
No Fee Unless You Win. Josh handles all personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means there is no upfront cost and no hourly billing. You pay nothing unless Josh successfully recovers compensation for your injuries. This arrangement ensures that high-quality legal representation is accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation.
Aggressive Representation When It Matters. While Josh believes in honest and transparent communication with clients, he does not take a passive approach to dealing with insurance companies or at-fault parties. He prepares every case as if it will go to trial, which puts him in the strongest possible negotiating position. Insurance companies know the difference between attorneys who are willing to go to court and those who are not — and they adjust their settlement offers accordingly.
