You’ll be in great hands with Josh!

Josh and his team truly make unenjoyable situations, such as my custody case, as easy of an experience as possible. He always answers any contact in a quick manner and will update you as the case proceeds so you’re not left guessing. He always gives you your list of options on what to do and provides... you with advice of what he thinks is best in his experience so you can make choices with his guidance. He absolutely put my children’s best interest first in my custody case and was understanding of how emotional and flustering of a time this can be on a parent. Any time I felt overwhelmed or frustrated he showed compassion and professionalism and made me feel at ease. He listens and absorbs your case fully before mapping out the best course of action. I couldn’t imagine a better practice to have handled my case. I would and will recommend Coffman Law to anyone in need of Josh’s services.

Outstanding Lawyer!!

I found Joshua in a very stressful time. I was going through a divorce and my previous lawyer was not helping me at all and made a mess of my case. Joshua and Nancy went to work immediately, Joshua told me the process and what to expect. Joshua answered all my questions and made it very easy to commu...nicate back and forth. Joshua lifted a weigh of my shoulders and worked for me, relieving a lot of stress. Joshua is very Law Enforcement friendly! I have a First Responder type schedule and Joshua made himself available and worked with me. One of my main problems in the divorce was the possession schedule due to my work schedule. Joshua suggested a modified possession order and it worked great! Now I spend more time with my daughter, more quality time!! and I don't have to ask for days off at work. Thank you Joshua and Nancy! this was the most important thing in my divorce and he made it happen. So if you have a First Responder type Schedule like me Mr. Coffman is the lawyer you are looking for. I am a very Satisfied Customer!!

BEST LAWYER IN TOWN!!!!

I shopped around for divorce lawyers before I found Mr. Coffman. I actually had hired a more expensive lawyer first and what a waste of money. Mr. Coffman is not only a great lawyer but a stand up guy as well. He could easily charge much more for his services - I think that is a true testament to his... character. He helped me through a difficult divorce case recently. He has expansive knowledge of family law and was always very honest with me (a great trait in any person, especially a lawyer). He got me everything I wanted and more, he also caught errors that the opposing side made that I don't think other lawyers would have taken the time to follow through with. He was very helpful in addressing my concerns regarding my situation; shared custody, support and the division of property. Mr. Coffman fully explained the laws that affected my case in a way I could easily understand. He was very communicative, and he was prompt to respond to questions and concerns I had along the way. I couldn't have imagined going through this process without him on my side, I am very grateful! I have already recommended him to a couple friends!

Amazing Lawyer!

Where do I begin describing what an amazing lawyer Joshua Coffman is? I was referred to him from one of his colleagues. My case was complicated and quite time consuming Josh didn’t hesitate taking my case on. My mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer and my custody battle was due to wanting to ...relocate due to her illness. During my case Josh was always responsive, kept me informed of all communications and procedures taking place during the process. My case went on for some time and Joshua continuously went above and beyond, a relocation case in Williamson County isn’t easy. He did everything in his power to fight for my cause. When my mother got worse he was able to negotiate time for my children to be out of state for an extended period of time to be by her side. He truly cared, even after my case was closed. I contacted him needing his help reviewing legal documents regarding my mother and drawing up additional paperwork for my custody arrangements, he was quick and responsive each time. Even met me at the court house to ensure all went well, even though he didn't have to. He truly cared about me and the outcome of the case. I honestly can't say enough good things with what he has done for me and my family. We still keep in contact as he likes to hear how my family and I are doing, something you don't get from many lawyers at all! I will never forget what Josh has done for me and my family and how hard he worked my case. He’s one of a kind!

Excellent Divorce/Custody Attorney!

About a year ago my now bipolar ex-wife brought a man home claiming that he was a massage therapist and that she needed his expertise to help her with a stressful job situation as a social worker. When I found the bedroom door locked and heard moaning coming from the bedroom I knew my marriage was o...ver. More importantly, I needed to quickly protect my 7 year old son from a stranger my now ex-wife had brought into our home. I immediately called Joshua Coffman. To make a long story short, within months of originally filing for divorce Joshua Coffman helped me obtain full custody of my now seven year old son, the family home, the only family car as well as all my hard earned 401-K money without having to split it with an adulteress. No divorce client in the United States could possibly have received a better divorce settlement as there is nothing else I could possible have wanted other than not wanting to have to file for divorce in the first place. I was very pleased with Joshua Coffman's legal services as I was very emotional during my first visit and remember crying intensely. After getting me a Kleenex box for my tears Joshua Coffman helped guide me through the complexity of divorce proceedings in a timely, sensible and methodical way. Additionally, Joshua Coffman was available after hours both by phone as well as via text messaging for all those unexpected problems that arise before as well as leading up to the final divorce decree hearing. Joshua Coffman regularly kept me up to date and usually responded to text messages within minutes as long as he was not in the courtroom at the time of the text message. Joshua Coffman is truly a life-saver, and he has incredible people skills in addition to an impeccable knowledge of Texas' legal system.
