Todd Parker
Todd Parker is a highly skilled attorney based in Columbus, Ohio, with over a decade plus of experience specializing in family law and criminal defense. Todd earned his undergraduate degree from The Ohio State University and completed his legal education at Capital Law School, where he graduated with honors.
After an accomplished sales career, Todd pursued his passion for family law, receiving invaluable mentorship from accomplished domestic attorney, Ralph Kerns. Drawing on his business expertise and legal training, Todd spent over a decade running a successful law practice in Ohio, where he specialized in delivering strategic, results-oriented legal counsel. His years of sales experience transferred seamlessly from the boardroom to the courtroom, making him a successful litigator and negotiator, achieving the best possible outcome for his client. He is known for his negotiating skills, which are instrumental when obtaining a favorable agreement that his clients want and deserve. As a solo practitioner, Todd handled complex divorce cases and contentious custody battles with the careful attention, tact, and assertiveness that each case required.
He is an expert at navigating the most challenging divorce and family law cases. Todd has tackled everything from high-net-worth divorces where people own multiple businesses, to difficult child custody cases involving issues such as grandparents’ rights. There truly isn’t a type of family law case that he has not taken on and been successful with. In other words, ‘he has seen it all.’ Todd approaches these cases intending to get you what you want while spending the least amount of money possible. Very often divorce lawyers will use circular talk or carry issues out to drive up their bills — Todd and the team here at the Joslyn Law Firm take a different approach. We understand that this is not the first time the court has ever dealt with a child custody or a divorce issue. There’s a repetition in these cases, and many times it’s important to try to resolve your case sooner rather than later.

Recognizing the powerful alignment of their values and vision, Todd and the Joslyn Law Firm are joining forces to provide clients with unparalleled legal representation, offering a unique blend of expertise, strategy, and dedication to achieving the best possible outcomes.
Todd understands that family law requires more than just legal expertise—it demands compassion, empathy, and a personalized approach.

This empathy drives his dedication to helping clients through some of life’s most difficult moments. He knows firsthand the importance of relationships and the complexities that arise when they falter. He aims to guide clients through emotionally charged situations with care and clarity, whether it’s a custody dispute, divorce, dissolution, or contempt proceedings. His clients frequently describe him as caring, approachable, and tenacious in his advocacy.
What sets Todd apart is his hands-on approach. He handles every aspect of his client’s cases, ensuring they receive the full benefit of his attention and expertise.

A proud lifelong resident of Columbus, Todd is deeply connected to the community and values its diversity and vibrancy. Outside of his practice, he’s been an active volunteer in youth sports and school programs and remains committed to the well-being of families both in and out of the courtroom. When he’s not in the courtroom, Todd also enjoys fishing along Florida’s Gulf Coast and spending time with his family and their menagerie of rescue pets.
