Way better lawyers out there!

Mr. Townsend was a terrible divorce lawyer. He never returns emails. He submitted our divorce papers and they were denied and tried to charge us more money for his incompetence. We decided to go with another lawyer. That lawyer charged us $740 to fix Mr. Townsends mistakes. Hire him as your lawyer if... you want someone that does not return calls or emails. Oh...and by the way. I have a coworker that used him as well. Says the same thing.

Messy divorce

If I hadn't of had Josh as my attorney I would of been broke from my ex-wife . She tried to work me over by taking more than 50 50 custody , and tried to combine both my incomes from my part time job and main job. She didn't get but my main job income used for child support and I kept 50 50 custod...y. My kids and Myself aren't going to be starving and cold when they were with me trying to pay my bills to live and pay child support. I don't mind paying child support what so ever but being fair was all I wanted. JOSH TOWNSEND is by far the only attorney I would recommend. He is cursed with memory and can recall my kids names birthdays and my case after 7 years past. We were in court again battling recently and he helped me again with a support modification after some discoveries where found we kept the modification fair and reasonable. Thank God for Josh he's a great attorney.

Wonderful Attorney

I hired Josh back in 2010 to deal with the crazy amount of spousal support I had been paying. He has been knowledgable and courteous throughout the entire process. I would recommend him to anyone with a divorce issue.

The worst Lawyer I have ever experienced

I hired Joshua Townsend for my divorce and he was the worst choice I could have ever picked. He filled me full of BS the hole time before trial and when it came to trial he backed out of everything he states " well we don't really have a way to win this so you need to settle to these obscene amounts ...of assets and alimony ( which he clearly stated they would have no chance of alimony... Lies) . he took my money a hole year and in the end I lost more than I had and have to go back to trial with a another lawyer to fight for my rights that should have been defended in the first place... Definitely avoid
