I consulted with Joshua about family law as it relates to my specific situation. He is knowledgeable, articulate, and focused on addressing the issue at hand. He also listens well and understands the human and emotional side of any conversation about family law - highly recommended.

I had the privilege to work with Josh for my child support modification case and I can confidently say I’d recommend him for anyone who is in need of excellent attorney. The quality of his representation was stellar - far more than I had anticipated. He is not only well-polished and seasoned attorney but very empathetic and approachable, which is the missing attribute among many attorneys. My case had several complications, however Josh never once exhibited any signs of impatience nor concerns. Having someone like him represent me gave me a huge sense of relief knowing he has my back.

I have worked with a number of family law attorneys in the Seattle Area over the past few years on a variety of matters, with mixed results. I contacted Josh Wheeler based on his reviews on Avvo, and he did not disappoint! He helped me with a child support modification, and also advised me on some other family law matters, one of which was very emotional and "sticky". Josh has a calm, friendly and non-judgmental demeanor that is very reassuring. Additionally, and most importantly, he clearly understands and can explain the letter of the law. He counseled reason and good sense on my part in moving forward. He clearly outlined my options and the pros and cons of each path, as well as what he advised to be the most prudent way forward. As most of us know, family conflicts can be very emotional and it can be hard to make a good decision based upon emotion. This is where Josh's counsel and well thought out advice was invaluable to me. Thanks to him, the immediate situation was resolved in the best way possible, and my family and I were able to move on, with peace of mind. I would hire him again in a heartbeat, and would certainly recommend him to others.

Josh was the ideal attorney to get me (and my children) through one of the the most difficult periods of my life. He always had his eye out for what mattered most to me, and was extremely honest with his situational assessments. Rather than get sucked into the opposing party's attempts to escalate the conflict, he helped keep things calm and focused on my goals.

Joshua is an excellent human being, he gives perfect advise to his clients. My experience with Joshua has been really good. He fights for his clients and what he believes in.He is someone who goes out of his way to make his client feel comfortable and understand their problem. I am so so grateful that i found him on avvo. He has truly helped me with my case. I feel blessed to have him as my attorney. Don't think. If you are fighting a legal battle just hire him.

I reached out to Mr Wheeler when my divorce process took an unexpected left turn. I was looking for a sanity check that I wasn't heading in the wrong direction. Mr Wheeler Provided guidance on how to handle the situation. Assurance that I had options to better my position if needed and offered his services where it made sense. I'm grateful for Mr Wheelers time. He will be first on my call list if something should happen in the future and the first I will recommend to friends and family.

Joshua generously spoke to me regarding my questions on marriage, birth certificates, child support, prenuptial agreements, and divorce. He outlined key practical advice that helped me with handling my current situation and planning my future.

I have been around for about 50 years now and as we all know, every once in a while you may need a lawyer. Generally, contacting a lawyer means something is not going good, and is not a fun journey... I was recommended by a very close Lawyer friend of over 20 years to Josh. Due to Covid we had many calls via phone. Its funny, if you cant see the person you are speaking with, we generally assign a perception of what they may look like, or at least I do.. I reached out to Josh to help with marriage issues in 2020 (shocker). We had many conversations and I was very impressed with the discovery work that Josh did during our calls. What I mean is; many lawyers take a case by taking sides with their clients, while this makes the client feel good, it does not always uncover all of the facts. Josh took the time to discover the person I am and the person my wife is. We discussed the situation we were in and talked about not only the history of events that led me to call him, but also discussions of moral concern. I really appreciated his ability to get a clear understanding of our situation. We have a young child and being a child of a divorce myself, it can really be hard on a child in the middle of a marriage dispute. Every situation is different as is every person. I really enjoyed working with Joshua, his insight into our problem and ability to adapt and give me many options really helped during this hard time. Trust me... my situation was an odd one. Our story has a happy ending and thanks to Josh we are all together. My story of Josh ends with the tag line at the top. Moral Compass: used in reference to a person's ability to judge what is right and wrong and act accordingly. Joshua has a very accurate Moral Compass. OH, almost forgot, I stated before about the perception of what someone looks like when you have never seen them in person or on a video call. I still think Josh sounds like a 6ft+ older guy with a long beard who may or may not smoke tobacco out of a pipe on occasion. And maybe a bit overweight... Wow, was I wrong :)

Josh is an excellent divorce attorney. My situation was very complicated and he pointed out my many options on several occasions. It didn’t help that my ex was difficult. He streamlined the process for me and was very compassionate when dealing with the difficulties of a very long marriage. At the beginning of the process, I explained to Josh, that I wanted an inexpensive and relatively friendly divorce, and he honored my requests. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a family law attorney.

Josh is a great lawyer! He represents me in my child custody case. He is very knowledgeable and has worked smart to help me achieve what’s best for my situation. I will continue to recommend him to others and use him when needed.

Josh and I had a phone consultation and he proved to be extremely knowledgable and compassionate. I wanted to know what my legal options were and he laid out several courses of action for me to take, as well as informed me of certain laws pertaining to my situation. He brainstormed with me and made me feel like my situation was important and deserving of attention. It's clear he works hard for his clients to ensure their ideal outcome. I was very impressed by his wealth of knowledge and moreover how seriously he took what was a free consultation - with dedication like that, I would highly recommend him!
