Rating:
5 / 4.65
Joshua Coffman has been practicing law for more than 15 years, 13 of which have been dedicated exclusively to providing legal advocacy and counsel to individuals facing divorce and child custody proceedings. Today, Joshua’s practice focuses on handling divorce and paternity cases in Central Florida for professionals, business owners, and their spouses.. Joshua is an experienced litigator and trial attorney. In 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017, Joshua was selected as a Super Lawyer Rising Star by Thomas Reuters, an honor bestowed upon less than 2.5% of attorneys under the age of 40. In 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023, Joshua was recognized as a Florida Super Lawyer by the same organization, an honor only 5% of attorneys in Florida receive.. Joshua is also a member of the elite Central Florida Family Law Inn of Court, a group of local attorneys, judges, magistrates, and other divorce and custody professionals working together to improve the practice of family law in and around Orlando, Florida.. To his clients, Joshua is a problem-solver and a peacemaker. He is a good listener, extraordinarily perceptive into the psychological dynamics at play in a divorce and/or child custody case, and he is the consummate teacher who always seeks to help his clients understand the law and how it applies to their particular case, both from a substantive and procedural standpoint.. Other distinctions include the following:. - Joshua has conducted several jury trials in complex paternity cases.- Joshua has handled a number of family law appeals, including pushing a novel legal theory on behalf of a Former Husband who had let a life insurance policy he was required to maintain lapse resulting in a favorable settlement for his client.- Joshua represented a former NFL player in a highly contentious divorce case wherein his client went from having no time-sharing with his kids to an almost 50/50 split with the other parent.- Licensed in Florida and Texas, and recognized by Thomas Reuters in both jurisdictions, Joshua has represented several clients in inter-jurisdictional cases (“cases involving two jurisdictions”).- Joshua once “escaped” from Alcatraz. Yes, you read that right. We are unsure of how this distinguishes him as a lawyer, but he enjoys talking about the time he and his father swam in the frigid waters of San Francisco Bay from Alcatraz to Aquatic Park. Believe it or not, it CAN be done!. Joshua grew up in Orlando, Florida. He loves spending time with his family, trying new local restaurants, squeezing in a swim, bike or run workout, and reading biographies and other historical works.. Awards:.

I have been practicing in Central Florida for over 35 years as both a former trial attorney and, since 1995, exclusively as a family law lawyer. Over the last decade, I have focused my energies and efforts on my collaborative law and mediation practice. I possess an ability to see the big picture and to assist in finding creative solutions where they may not be readily apparent. In protecting the rights and safety of children, I am tenacious, and my personality and style are such that I often bring a calming influence to contentious situations. My consistent goal is to guide clients to outcomes that preserve, and even enhance, family relationships, while minimizing damage to children. At The Aikin Family Law Group our culture is such that we treat all of our clients with respect, compassion and caring, from the front desk to the corner office. We value empowering clients to be able to focus on global resolutions tailored to their family’s needs.. I have been instrumental in the expansion and acceptance of collaborative law practice in Central Florida over the last decade and serve as the President of The Collaborative Family Law Group of Central Florida, an organization of collaboratively-trained attorneys, mental health professionals and financial professionals, numbering 110 members strong. I am passionate in my belief that divorce and related issues are better handled out of the courtroom setting, ideally around a table with the guidance and expertise of both attorneys, a mental health neutral and a financial neutral. Direct, open and transparent communication results in greater efficiency and clarity, allowing for more informed decision-making and more lasting agreements.. Mediation adds another dimension to my practice and allows me to bring to bear the skills to resolve legal disputes such as child custody and timesharing, child support and modifications, contested and uncontested divorce, equitable distribution, domestic abuse, alimony/spousal support, relocation and other Family Law issues. My reputation is one of tackling the hardest cases with complex issues and complicated family dynamics and working the cases as needed between the formal mediations sessions, as may be required for resolution. My extensive community contacts help access resources to guide cases to conclusion.. I am AV rated by Martindale-Hubbell, the highest peer review rating, and have been voted by my peers as a “Super Lawyer” every year since 2007. I am a member of the Florida Bar Association and the Orange County Bar Association, having chaired various committees and served as Secretary to the OCBA. I am a founding member of the American Inns of Court, #123, and a founding member and former counselor to the Central Florida Family Law Inn of Court. Both organizations were created to enhance professionalism and to provide education and mentorship opportunities. I am also a founding board member and current President of The Collaborative Family Law Group of Central Florida. Most recently, I was selected as a Florida Trend magazine Legal Elite attorney in the Marital and Family Law area, one of only 39 attorneys to receive the recognition in the State of Florida.. I am married and I enjoy a blended family of four children and two grandchildren with a third grandchild on the way.

She is a board member on the prestigious Central Florida Family Inn of Court and a member of the Orange County Bar Association.. The secret to her success is no secret at all. Lorna’s practice focuses on one area and one only: Family law matters, many of which can be extremely complex.
