Outside of his legal work, Joshua remains an active voice in professional and volunteer circles, blending his varied experiences to make a positive impact both in and out of the courtroom.

Joshua’s approach to law reflects Ontario’s evolving legal landscape, where tradition meets innovation. In a diverse and multicultural society, Family and Criminal Law demand more than just advocacy, they require adaptability and a focus on equitable outcomes.
