Joshua T. Keleske

Joshua T. Keleske, P.L. was formed  to fulfill Joshua’s dream of following in the footsteps of his late grandfather, Earle L. Christ, an attorney and sole practitioner in Joshua’s hometown for more than 50 years. Joshua’s grandfather was instrumental in teaching him old-fashioned professionalism and a commitment to providing skilled legal counsel by example. The lessons Joshua learned from his grandfather serve as the foundation of how he practices law today. The approach can best be summed up by advice that his grandfather gave Joshua when he was admitted to the Bar:

“Put your clients first and everything else will take care of itself.”

Joshua can counsel you through your estate planning and corporate transactions with the confidence and expertise clients seek.  With more than ten years of real world experience, he knows how to bring many time- and money-saving solutions to your planning concerns.

Joshua was born in Racine, Wisconsin, and attended Marquette University, where he earned his Baccalaureate Degree in Business Administration, cum laude, and his Master of Business Administration and Law Degree, summa cum laude. After starting his legal career in Milwaukee with the firm of Foley & Lardner, Joshua moved to Florida with his family in 2001, where he managed a small firm in Hyde Park.

Joshua is a member of The Florida Bar and the State Bar of Wisconsin. He is active in the Hillsborough County Bar Association and the Tampa Bay Estate Planning Council, presently serving as on its Board of Directors.  Joshua is Board Certified in Wills, Trusts and Estates by The Florida Bar, and has received an AV Preeminent peer review rating by Martindale-Hubbell, which is the highest peer review rating available to any individual lawyer.

Joshua is also involved in numerous charitable and civic organizations, including participating the Knights of Columbus through his parish, St. Paul’s Catholic Church, and serving on the Board of Directors of Cornerstone Family Ministries and the Planned Giving Council of the Tampa Bay Research Institute.
