Stellar Family Law Attorney

For many years Josh has represented me in a number of post divorce issues particularly regarding custody concerns. I can’t emphasis how much his assistance has contributed to the well-being of my daughter who I have had primary custody of since 2011 at age 5. I cannot imagine a better outcome from... any other attorney, and I highly recommend his services.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Rogers was incredibly thorough and compassionate. He helped me navigate a very difficult event in my life. He answered all of my questions honestly and made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him.

Perfect lawyer for complicated divorce

In my complicated and highly emotional child custody battle Josh was the perfect lawyer. He prepared me for every scenario I might encounter and was able to help me keep a calm rational perspective. He advised me on how I could protect myself and my daughter even when I felt paralyzed. Highly recom...mend him because he is dependable, trustworthy and truly a good person through and through!

Wonderful Lawyer

Its sounds strange saying that any divorce is a good experience. But I can say that Mr Rogers was the reason it was as smooth as it was. For years I tried doing it on my own and trying to find ways to get it done. Josh was a God-send. His advice and experience got it done quickly and in a manner ...I could feel good about. Would definitely recommend him and would use him again.

It is rare in life for someone to come along that makes a lasting and permanent impact AND imprint in our lives. Josh Rogers is such a person. I had a very difficult child custody dispute as part of my divorce. Josh handled it with an uncommon level of professionalism and integrity. I wholehearte...dly recommend him to anyone seeking sage council. He achieved tangible results that I WILL NOT soon forget.
