High conflict divorce with kids

I came into see Josh during my pending divorce. I was about half way through my case and in the middle of a mess. Everything in our divorce just kept going back and forth with every small issue, we weren’t making any progress, and I couldn’t seem to get things moved ahead. I felt so hopeless and d...rained. When I came in for consultation, just the simple straightforward manner in which josh explained how he would handle things, uncluttered my mind and instantly took some of the stress away. He was clear, to the point, logical, and extremely patient with all my questions. He took over my case and I started to see improvement immediately. Communication between attorneys improved, things were handled quickly and efficiently, some resolutions were actually made. We were still not able to settle, so Josh ended up doing a three day trial in my case. Again prepping for trial, Josh was so patient with me, answered all my questions, listened to all my concerns, gave me all my options, yet still give me direction on what he felt was best. Our case was high conflict and there was a lot riding on our trial. The kids being the most important thing. It’s not easy to pick an attorney and ultimately put your kids futures in their hands. I realized as the trial unfolded and I saw what it was actually like and what mattered to the judge, having Josh as my attorney was the best move that I made the whole divorce. While the other attorney was scattered, throwing out a ton of information quickly, repetitive and sticking on petty issues, Josh was extremely composed, well spoken, confident and clear. He presented my case in a way that set me apart from the drama and allowed the judge to hear and see the real issues. Josh was also extremely quick to respond to any allegations and cross examine the witnesses in a way that actually turned it in my favor. I walked away with exactly what I asked for, Josh got me the most important things to me in my divorce. Not only did I get what mattered most, but Josh also communicated and presented our concerns so effectively, the judge was able to address them in his final order, so that we weren’t left with a lot of open gaps to worry about later . Josh is an amazing attorney and he is genuinely a good person and having both of those on my side, during this extremely stressful process made all of the difference.

Knowledgeable and Compassionate

Josh Sheridan is the third lawyer who has helped me over the last 10 years with my divorce and post-divorce proceedings. After my first conversation with Josh I could tell this would be a different experience. Josh reviewed the most recent motion my ex-wife had filed and then he quickly and concise...ly explained what needed to be done and cited the case law he would use to argue my case. It was a great relief to know that I had someone in my corner with Josh's experience, knowledge and ability to communicate so clearly. But Josh's skills as an attorney pale in comparison to his heart for those he represents. At no point did I feel like his client, he made me feel like his friend. As I told him, for the first time in 10 years I finally felt like someone cared about everything I had been through and everything I was fighting for. I can't think of a place where it is more important to have the right attorney than family court; everything you've worked for, everything you value is literally at stake. Josh Sheridan is the right attorney.

Joshua is the best!

I hired attorney Joshua Sheridan to represent me in a divorce. He was easy to talk to and he was very down to earth. I like that in a professional. The process of easy - no hidden agendas and he wasn't trying to make it difficult. If you need some real down to earth lawyering with someone who is ea...sy to talk to, Josh is your man!

Very Pleased

Thank You Josh for helping me with my divorce and custody case. Josh listened to me a year ago when I wanted to know my rights as a mom and my options and a year later it was time to move forward and I hired Josh to my attorney. He was quick to move the process and didn't just sit back and let time... get the better of the case. He was great at giving his honest advise and making me see the reality of the case. He fought for my case and the best thing for my little one. I can't be happier with how he handled the case and I would definitely recommend him to anyone going thru a divorce

Helped with divorce AND to get $ from my home insurance!

Josh really helped me throughout the divorce. Always reachable and willing to answer all my questions. And when we talked about how my home owner’s insurance underpaid me on older hurricane damage claim he said he can help me get more money.

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Josh throughout my legal career. I have handled cases against him while I was a prosecutor and along side him in private practice. I routinely consult with him on legal matters due to his experience and expertise in multiple areas of law. He is knowledgeable, well respected within the legal community and a zealous advocate on behalf of his clients. I would recommend him without hesitation."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"If anyone is thinking about hiring or referring a client to Joshua Sheridan for criminal defense or for a domestic violence hearing, that’s probably a good idea. I called Josh when my client was in jail, criminally charged with domestic violence, and facing a domestic violence injunction. My client was out of jail the next day, Josh stayed in regular communication with both of us, the criminal charges were dropped, and Josh won a contested domestic violence injunction hearing by creating a timeline of events that called the veracity of the “victim’s” allegations into serious question. It is hard to imagine how anyone else could have possibly done any better. You have to love it when your client has his “best day in court.” Thanks Josh!"
