If you have but one choice for a divorce lawyer, it should be Josh Mathews and his team! I got slapped with divorce papers before I could turn around and catch my breath. I was hurt, anger, devastated but at 61, I wasn’t going to let this event define me. I search the internet, read the reviews, and looked at the results versus the hype. I picked Josh because the lion’s share of the reviews said he went the extra mile. I needed an advocate for my side. It wasn’t always easy Josh gives tough love. His frankness can seem harsh, but he explains why and goes into detail about the range of outcomes. His staff is exceptional. Particularly outstanding was Amber’s genuine concern, caring and commitment. She let me vent in daily emails, she called me on weekends if need be. Amber showed she cared. It was not some hyperbole of a slick ad like you see in another firm. It was honest, decent and although I didn’t always hear what I wanted, I heard what I needed. Josh has the money side of this mess, down to a science. I knew exactly what worse case, best case was and where I most likely would end up. In the end as one reads this, it is about results. Josh pulverized opposing counsel. He was prepared, organized and stayed on point. He clearly won the day. While the emotional toll isn’t something lawyers can help with, knowing I won’t continue to pay for something I didn’t really want (a divorce), I can go into another relationship with peace of mind. Kudos and many thanks to Josh and his team

Mr Mathews did a great job at trial. he was up against a lawyer that likes to use false evidence. Mr Mathews was fast at getting the true facts out to the court. i am very happy on the job he and his staff have done.

If you are looking for an attorney in the Kansas/Missouri area, I highly recommend Joshua A Matthews. I hired him for my child custody case. He was the BEST lawyer I have ever worked with. He was extremely detailed and aggressive. If you are someone who is honest and truthful with him, he will get you what you want and deserve. He did an outstanding job presenting the evidence I had and he is an excellent cross examiner. The end result, thanks to Josh, the judge ruled in my favor! I am forever grateful for him and his Team at The Matthews Group!

Today ended a year of motions sent by my ex husband and his attorney. I came out winning every single thing that was important to me. I had to hug this man multiple times today for seeing me through two trials, a pre trial, and a lengthy deposition. I had no legal experience and knew so little about the law going into all of these proceedings, but Joshua is so intelligent, so skilled, and so capable of thinking and reacting effectively that I didn't need to worry. I lost sleep for nothing. He had it all under control today.

Let me start by saying that I was very concerned about today's hearing. I have been an extremely patient person while going through this process with my husband the last couple of months. On numerous occasions my husband has done things to try to make me look like a bad parent or to embarrass me in the court, not to mention his attempts at getting reduced child support. Joshua was on his A game today and without hesitation shut down every unrealistic expectation my husband has had regarding parenting time, child support and our children. For the first time in months I actually feel some of the stress leaving my body and I feel good about moving forward with my divorce case. Joshua was the second attorney I had to hire after dealing with one who I could never get ahold of and who really could care less what happened to me and my children. Joshua Mathews is officially our family hero. We still have a way to go with this divorce case but I think I will be sleeping a little better at night now knowing I've got an attorney like this on my children's side. Thank you Mr Matthews!

I liked that the fee was a one-time fee. I knew the exact price and the exact length of representation up front instead of being billed for ridiculous hourly rates. I received a lot of prompt email responses from both Michelle and Devon, and Courtney was very knowledgeable and was available to speak on the phone if I had questions about my case. The turnaround on the initial paperwork was quick and although Josh wasn't immediately available by phone, I always got an email back within a day or so, and could schedule calls with him in advance. He treats you like a real person, not just a client. He knows exactly what to say in court and made my ex look unprepared. You won't be disappointed!

I was concerned because the reviews for the Mathews Group were either really good or really bad. I talked to them about that, and they said that because people are usually unhappy when dealing with divorce, they sometimes take that out on the lawyers. I gave them a chance, and I'm so glad that I did. I know my ex husband paid way more for his attorney than I did, and the Mathews group did everything they said they would and more. I talked to Michelle and Courtney almost every day, and they were always very up to date on my case. I would definitely recommend them.

Let me just start by saying I'm not a fun female to work with when my emotions are high. I'm combative and very angry! Joshua stood by my side through everything and I appreciate everything he's done for my family. I'm not going to say that I always liked what he had to say but it was honest and he steered me in the right directions. I sincerely appreciate everything you did for me today. It's been a rough and long road but I'm thankful it's coming to an end. I hope we never cross paths again but I'd be happy to refer a friend. Thank you!

My sister hired Mr. Mathews to represent her in her child custody matter. He is very professional and kindhearted. He took my sister under his wing and guided her through her whole case, taking time after hours to call and discuss with her matters pertaining to her case. He went above & beyond in representing her, to make her feel calm & reassured. Me. Mathews is not only a Lawyer, he proves he is an individual who understands your position, reassures his clients, makes his clients feel important, is not only professional but knows his practice. This is not just a career for him, it is about helping other people and their children live a happy content life together. I cannot thank him enough for his involvement in my sisters case on her behalf. If you are looking for a lawyer, Mr. Mathews would be your guy!

My ward wanted me to adopt her but the situation was complicated. Joshua Mathews met with all the kids and myself to discuss our situation. He showed just as much respect to the children & their input as he did in me, the adult. He agreed to take on our case knowing how difficult and time consuming it could become. Mr. Mathews has been very professional, attentive, understanding, and answers my questions/calls in a timely manner. His staff is very upbeat, polite, and professional. The kids love going by the office to drop off paperwork or for me to sign papers. As a parent I find it reassuring that an attorney's office can put the client and full family at ease during, what can be, a trying time. Yes, I would recommend this law practice!
