Joshua Daniel Sherman

I was referred to Sherman law almost a year into a contentious divorce. My original attorney was not attentive, not responsive, and lackluster. After requesting a second retainer (for what appeared to be no work to date) I reached out to Sherman Law for assistance. Within an hour of meeting with... Josh, I knew I needed a new attorney. IT WAS THE BEST THING I COULD HAVE DONE. Josh and his team (Jess, Bri, and Nancy) were a stark contrast to my original attorney. Josh maintained an appropriate level of communication, but was always mindful of my time. Josh did a good job prioritizing complex distractions with relevant issues, and dealt with necessary issues swiftly and decisively. In my case, I had counsel who represented my ex that did not negotiate in good faith. My ex had an unrealistic (and grossly unfair) alimony request that could only be viewed as emotional and spiteful. Josh used logic and experience to come up with a "gut feel" of what is fair. Subsequently, MESP recommended something similar to what Josh thought would be fair and expected. Unfortunately, my ex did not accept the MESP recommendation, and did not negotiate past her initial request. As a result, we were forced to prep for trial. Josh was VERY thorough and logical when it came to prepping for trial. Josh tried to negotiate with the adversary several times without avail. Additionally, Josh had to respond to several baseless (yet disparaging) motions filed by my ex. Josh was never phased by the senseless ordeal, and responded only with irrefutable fact and exhibits. My ex ended up settling for something VERY comparable to the MESP recommendation on the second day of trial. It was good to see that Josh identified the "snake in the grass" early on, and was able to accurately predict a fair outcome as evidenced by both the MESP recommendation, and what was actually settled in the end. I highly recommend Sherman Law for any family law needs... I'm just glad I found them before my ex did.
