Joshua Glickman

Originally from Maryland, Joshua Glickman received his J.D. from Washington University School of Law in St. Louis, Missouri, and received his B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. While attending law school, Josh worked with the Commission on Safety and Abuse in America’s Prisons, a national, blue-ribbon prison commission co-chaired by former U.S. Attorney General Nicholas de B. Katzenbach and the Honorable John Gibbons, former Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, exploring effective methods to make correctional facilities safer for both prisoners and staff. As a result of this work and his interest in prisoners' rights, Josh was then awarded a Florida Bar Foundation Public Interest Law Fellowship at the Florida Justice Institute during law school. Prior to joining the Florida Justice Institute full-time, Josh also served in the U.S. House of Representatives, as a Legal Fellow for U.S. Congressman John Conyers, Jr. on the Committee on the Judiciary, Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security.
Josh currently works at the Florida Justice Institute, a private, not-for-profit, state-wide public interest litigation firm founded in 1978 that handles major, systemic litigation involving civil rights for individuals confined in Florida’s prisons and jails, housing and disability-related discrimination, as well as impact litigation and class actions for indigent populations.
Active in the Florida legal community, Josh is a member of the Southern District of Florida's Ad Hoc Committee on Rules and Procedure, is Vice-Chair of the Civil Rights Committee for the Public Interest Law Section of the Florida Bar, sits on the Civil Rights Committee of the Anti-Defamation League, and is the current President of the Miami Carolina Club. Josh has litigated cases in appellate, federal, state, and administrative courts throughout the state of Florida, and is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Courts for the Northern, Middle, and Southern Districts of Florida, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
