How do I write a significant review that comes through to you all when you are in your time of…read moreneed? A truly dark time that revisits when you've gone through a horrible divorce and it continues as times as your children get older? Last night, I that dark time return in a Notice of Hearing filing which was received down to the wire from the court date. The filing looked "wrong" yet you must respond for court as they don't accept excuses. In the dark night, I email out to Daniel what to do?!!! First thing in the early morning, what do I see?!! An email response from Daniel. And in his normal, calm manner he tells me what I can do - step-by-step. I can do this now because Daniel is there for me and with me. Divorce is hard enough as it is but I've been on this road for a way long time due to kids being involved. When it's a bad divorce, it carries through because you share kids. You need an attorney in family law who is calm and stable enough to guide you when the darkness hits. I am so blessed Daniel is there for me. I can do this because he's there to guide me.

Luckily I was assigned with Mae Villanueva Mediation (MVM). I received professional and critical attention to my case. I never knew services like these existed.

Josh is a true professional…read more He responded in a timely manner. He listened empathetically and gave me insight into the concerns that I brought to him. His questions as well as his responses to my questions conveyed a deep understanding of the invisible nuances that exist in families while also conveying a clear path forward for our particular needs. I found this to be profoundly important. Of all of the people that I consulted, Josh left me with the most confidence. The straightforward simplicity of what services he offers and the value that you get is also a big deal, especially when you're already stressed out. I hope that no family ever needs help sorting through hardships, but if you do, definitely give Family Solutions a try.

From the moment I reached out, his response was impressively fast--within 10 minutes! He reviewed all of the extensive documentation I had submitted in advance and offered a free consultation that was not only informative but incredibly validating. Josh took the time to listen with empathy and offer insights with clarity. His professionalism and kindness were matched only by his precision and attention to detail. Although he acknowledged that my case--due to its complexity and contentious nature--might fall outside the scope of his mediation-focused practice, he provided excellent feedback on how well I had already organized my declarations. He was honest, supportive, and encouraged me to continue advocating for myself as I seek representation better suited for a high-conflict litigation scenario involving false narratives and abuse of legal process. Josh is clearly deeply experienced in working with couples pursuing amicable divorce resolutions, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled mediator or attorney for a fair, affordable family law settlement. Even though he may not be the right fit for my specific case, I left our consultation feeling far more empowered, informed, and supported. Family Solutions is lucky to have him--and so are the clients he serves.
