Cordell & Cordell, Houston TX

Kara and her team are very communicative and responsive. They acknowledge and truly hear when you tell them what you want to accomplish in hiring them. They maintained professionalism, understanding, and confidence.

After shelling out thousands of dollars my case was dismissed before the judge even heard the merits of the case. My legal "expert" failed to include the basic language required on my perition and picked it apart in minutes and threw the whole case out. Save your money! *edit - after speaking with customer service they have made no effort to right their mistakes. They are just after your money

Kara Garcia was a Godsend. I was in the middle of a divorce when a situation arose that needed immediate action. Kara guided me and her actions and recommendations extinguished a potentially unsafe situation for my children. I highly recommenf Kara Garcia and Cordell and Cordell

I fell for the advertisement. Poor value, poor quality, poor preparation. I got the Shaft by wife’s nobody attorney! Radio off when advertisement comes on! Makes me sick!

Cordell & Cordell DO provide sound legal advice. But, after paying their retainer and literally canceling my services less than an hour after enrolling, I was billed for the form letter of welcome that was emailed to me, a 20 minute conversation with my attorney in which I explained that I wanted my services put on hold completely and the exiting letter I was emailed (again, a form letter I believe.) culminating in almost $500.00 in legal fees. Again, they DO give sound advice, but these guys will nickel and dime you to death. If you have money to waste, go for it. If you are a single father with a limited income (most of which that goes to trying to make your kids lives the best you can) don't bother. It isn't worth it.

Reply: Thank you for your reply. As my case is complete, reviewing my case would only benefit you. Your firm should attempt to be proactive instead of retroactive when it comes to open communication and, actually, listen to the client. You are hired to advocate for your clients not just to profit off the situation.

Hired them to represent me against false claims. Had proof against allegations, testimony from Amicus and therapist along with messages from the kids, recordings, etc. No proof was provided to substantiate claims. In the end, I lost time (went from Thursday through Sunday) to standard (extended). I was constantly told that my requests were not standard (like keeping my every weekend schedule). They want to fit every situation into a standard box. This is easier than actually fighting for what is right. The outcome could have been worse so I guess my attorney did something positive. Based on my experience, I would certainly NOT recommend this firm. My attorney came off strong but ended up presenting no evidence in my defense.

Cordell and Cordell are exceptional at getting the father's a fair shake in divorce court. They have a number of programs to assist father in dealing with a system that is more or less stacked against them. I give them my highest recommendation.

I've never been to Houston. Phillip paid y'all over the phone to correct his child support deduction knowing his 1st born is legally 24yrs old. He not only presented his case w/ out his daddy n daughter backing him up, he has never lied to any court of law n he never argued to the judge. His ex wife rebuked every thing n demanded Spousal support n denied having any daughters n told the judge off coz she thinks she owns the world since God took her daddy when she was 10yrs old. She's simply a man hater; revenge on any1 who tells her she's wrong n she doesn't think she ows any1 any explanation coz she thinks shes higher than Queen Elizabeth 2nd.

Thank y'all for winning his child support case. He has 3 n a half yrs left to pay which I wanted it to go to the adult child or to TX but got told by 3 different ppl that 1) I'm not the actual mother, 2) the 24yr old told ever1 that she doesn't want the remaining left which I think her being 10% down syndrome coz her mother had her late is a major key factor in her brain, n 3) TX apparently don't see that the adult kid (s) depending on what he/she tells TX it goes directly to the adult kid (s) or keep paying the mother til judge says finished. Each child support case is different coz of the many different circumstances that may or may not have taken place during the whole separation n divorce is they see is the daddy missed these payments, I'm just glad that it's less than 50yrs of payments left.

I feel like I'm in a financial polygamy marriage coz I'm a mom, housewife; homemaker so I must share my income w/ an ex wife that enjoyed calling me romantic names n I'm straight. I'm just happy that Phillip has 3 n a half yrs left of child support left coz being in debt isn't good.

My experience with this law firm was horrible from the beginning. My first lawyer went on maternity leave and did not tell me. After I finally called about the lack on movement on my case I got a new lawyer that was more expensive than the first. He was very slow to work on my case. He only seemed to work on it after I called and bugged him. My uncontested divorce took 2 years and cost me $16000. Please do yourself a favor and look for a firm that will fight for you and not just roll over because it is EASIER!

Some of the worst attorneys for fathers nation wide. I had a divorce using them and I did more work that the attorney. If you are looking for an attorney go elsewhere, this holds true to every person who I have takes to who had them as an attorney. The odds are stacked against you in the courts as it is but to have lawyers who don't fight for you and who you have to constantly try and get in touch with. Pay attention to the bad reviews they are not wrong.

Mysti Dennis is a blessing to my family. We are truly grateful. She answered every question I had with honesty and intelligence. She told me everything that would happen exactly as it happened, from begging to end. Even when I had doubts about the process of my case, I decided to put all of my trust in Mysti and I am glad I had the fortitude to overcome my fear and do exactly as she said. On any occasion Mysti was not available, Angie Gnuyen was just as helpful.
We thank God for Mysti and I remain in awe of how this whole process worked out. I am no longer afraid. Thank you Cordell & Cordell.

Great views. Very expensive. $40 for 2 people to take their car up. No bathroom facilities. It's a one trip adventure. Shame it's privately owned. Pricey!

Gentlemen, if you are unlucky enough to need a divorce, Cordell & Cordell are THE attorneys to have on your side. Admittedly expensive but better to pay more for expert legal help than to give up your hard earned dollars to a greedy spouse. My wife had Alzheimer's and her daughter talked her into divorcing me, so I was actually fighting against two people. Cordell & Cordell's attorneys went to bat for me and hit a grand slam, and I am extremely grateful to them for their help.
