You want Joshua as your attorney. He is extremely thorough, smart, tough, and ensures you know exactly what is at stake at all times. Because he is the most prepared you will also be the most prepared. He is YOUR advocate every step of the way. I am forever grateful for the results of my Collaborative Divorce and would recommend Joshua without hesitation. He truly cares about you and getting the best outcome possible.
I hired Joshua Lindsay to handle a change to my divorce’s permanent parenting plan. His professionalism and competency helped negotiate a positive result from a difficult situation. His ability to listen, communicate, and give realistic advice helped me trust the process.
I would not be where I am today without Joshua stepping up to the plate for me. My divorce is not a textbook case but he and his team have handled it with ease. I am unbelievably impressed with his follow-through! If he says he's going to do something, he does it! He and his team are always available when needed. Guys, not many attorneys contact you within hours after receiving an email, text or phone call. This guy is a class act! I am so impressed by his professionalism that I have referred him to friends, family and even my own personal clients.
Joshua made this process so much easier and took a lot of stress off me. He was so easy to reach and updated me frequently.
Divorce was new to me. As a father seeking custody of his three young girls, I didn’t know what to expect. I didn’t know where to turn. All I knew is that I had children that were at risk and I needed help. Fortunately, I was given Joshua’s name by someone I trusted deeply, and from the very first phone call it was clear I’d be in good hands with Joshua. His attentiveness, and attention to detail always made me feel like I was his only client. If I had a question or needed to talk and reached out, he was ALWAYS there for me. On average, his response time could be measured not in days or even hours but in MINUTES. Which is exactly what you want and need during such trying times. Quick, Clear, and Concise feedback. Always. At each step of the way, Joshua did an exceptional job of laying out each option available, and how each one could impact me as the father to my 3 young girls. His experience gave him the ability to keep me from being surprised along the way. He was great at managing my expectations throughout the process. An absolute necessity for anyone hoping to come out the other side in one piece. Given the stakes at hand, and long-term implications, I needed the best and I am 100% certain I had that in Joshua. I am forever grateful for the wonderful support and counsel I received from Joshua and all that he was able to do for me and my girls. He is the best. Period.
I hired Joshua Lindsey as my attorney in Collaborative Divorce. As no divorce is easy, Joshua did take the time to make sure I was well informed and that the process proceeded smoothly. I felt comfortable and in good. hands with Joshua, and felt he had my best interest and that of my family at the forefront of any negotiations. I would recommend him to anyone considering the path of divorce.
You want your divorce lawyer to be a great advisor and Joshua Lindsey is top notch. By following his careful advice, I made no mistakes during the arduous process and I was satisfied with my outcome. I was treated as a valuable client during the process and felt confident about his legal advice and knowledge from beginning to end.
Joshua was particularly adept at meeting my needs as a client. There were days when that just meant listening and days when that meant providing strategic legal advice. I was able to file for divorce and work through the collaborative process in four months with professionals that helped us keep our children the top priority, thanks to Joshua. This has been a very sad and difficult process for me with very young children and Joshua managed to help me purchase a house before the divorce was final as well as worked to negotiate a parenting plan and asset distribution that met my needs as a now single working mother. He kept me above the minutia and trivial arguments that slow the process down and I feel so very fortunate to have met him. Joshua told me that there is no winner in a divorce, that you can only win by moving forward - I'm able to move forward thanks to him.
Joshua is what you want in a divorce lawyer. He recognizes the importance and difficultly of a divorce both financially, and, more importantly, emotionally. Simply put, I would not have wanted anyone else.
Kind and empathetic through an emotional divorce.
