Best custody lawyer!!!!

So my 8 year old moved to Florida 7 years ago. And my sons mom only let me have him a few months a year. But thanks to Joshua I now to get to see my son alot more even after court when my sons mom potentially violated the newly enforced custody order he went out of his way to inform her to comply! He... has been our sons biggest advocate and he treated us like family. My wife and I will 10000% be keeping him as our family lawyer. I would highly recommend him he is very big on father rights.

Look elsewhere

I agree with what another poster mentioned. Initially Josh promises that he will do everything in his power to win your case, but unfortunately, its more talk than action. Once hired, he is not very responsive nor listens to client concerns. I hired him to be represented in a child support enforcem...ent case/discovery of assets. I had several requests at our initial consult and months later, it was as if Josh did not listen at all during our meeting. I specifically requested a different judge and other clear cut requests. Joshua pretty much repeated the work my previous lawyer did. Court dates were changed and I wasn't made aware. I would email him and he wouldn't get back with me in a timely matter. Most recently he called me 2 days before a court hearing to discuss issues that should have been discussed weeks prior. If you're a single parent with limited income, I would avoid at all costs. I paid him $500 to be represented and also did a lot of research on my own. Its almost a year later and there has been no progress on my case. He also withdrew from my case recently, due to me complaing to the bar assocation about his neglect on my case. So I am out $500 and in the same position I was a year ago.

Amazing lawyer

He helped me with my case involving grandparent visitations, he was nice, and aggressive on the case, he was always available when I needed him and very professional. He is like a rock, very straight forward and don't sugar-coat anything. I HIGHLY recommend him for any thing you need.. Plan on usi...ng him again in the future soon. Thanks ....

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
