    Joshua Moger

    Joshua Moger regularly represents clients in high net worth and ultra high net worth divorce matters, including entrepreneurs, private equity principals, high-level professionals and executives, and their spouses.

    • Joshua Moger is really bright, good at the law and a very credible guy.

    • He's had exposure to lots of cases with complex, technical money issues, like venture capital carries and complex bonus structures. He's really financially literate, he knows what he's doing and is really hard-working. Lots of solicitors palm everything off to counsel, but Josh deals with complex stuff himself.

    • I like Joshua Moger because he's a fighter: he will battle to the end for a client but he's also down-to-earth, and clients like that. He's got a never-say-die attitude and he relishes the adversity.
