About Joshua
Joshua Hood practices law across three western states. He is licensed in Texas, Nevada and Oregon. His career has combined regional mobility with steady legal work in offices that serve widely varied clients.
He began his higher education close to home, attending Umpqua Community College. He went on to study at Southern Oregon University and later attended Valparaiso University School of Law. Those stops reflect a path from local community college classrooms to a law school classroom in the Midwest.
Hood holds admission to practice in multiple state bars. That status allows him to accept matters that arise under the laws of Texas, Nevada and Oregon. Over time he has built a practice that moves with the jurisdictional needs of his clients rather than staying confined to a single state court system.
He has worked in different legal settings and now lists Hurley Re, P.C. as his office. At that firm he works alongside colleagues who handle a range of civil and regulatory matters. His practice involves preparing filings, arguing matters in court and counseling clients about obligations and risks that vary from state to state. He has experience managing cases that require attention to differing procedural rules and substantive law among the three states where he is admitted.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in approach and pragmatic in planning. He tends to break complex problems into discrete steps, then addresses each step on its own terms. That approach suits work that spans multiple jurisdictions where timelines and rules often diverge.
Clients who come to him typically need a lawyer who can work across borders within the United States and explain practical consequences clearly. He spends time mapping out which state’s law applies and where filings must occur. He also assists in preparing documents for use in courts or administrative agencies in the states where he is licensed.
Outside of direct case work his background includes the classroom and local legal communities tied to the places he studied. That mix informs a practice that blends regional knowledge with courtroom and administrative experience. He currently practices at Hurley Re, P.C., handling legal matters arising under the laws of Texas, Nevada and Oregon.
