Cordell And Cordell - Attorney Review from Newark, New Jersey

I I feel I have been overcharged almost nothing going has been done in my case I guess at Cordell and Cordell they can't keep a lawyer I am on my 3rd attorney on the same case and actually had one befor them so it is my 4th. I have completely lost faith in their firm, and am now going to go ahead and Hire someone else making it my 5th attorney on a simple child custody case. Don't hire these people!

Cordell Cordell Virginia Beach Virginia - represent Women too - False Advertisers!

Called - sent me to operator in Missouri - Not even Local, have no employees local except for a lawyer that said he couldn't help me because he didn't have the required experience in helping only men...but then asked for a $15,000 retainer. You aren't local and you want 15K with no experience in only representing men - then they say THEY REPRESENT WOMEN TOO! What, you say mens rights but represent women against men - FALSE ADVERTISING - and this was admitted by the Managing Partner of Cordell Cordell Virginia Beach, Virginia in article...unbelievable how these sharks cheat men

I agree 100%!! Brandon Levitt with Cordell and Cordell did nothing to help me.

Constantly sided with the opposition and displayed no evidence of possessing a spine. Very poor representation.

Even after I fired him, he continued to charge me very high fees and even signed my divorce decree against my will.

Cordell Cordell

STAY AWAY!!!!!! Total incompetence. They are there to suck as much money from you as possible not to perform any worthwhile representation. THEY ARE A SCAM!!!!!! Six months and got absolutely nothing done in my favor and I was a victim of domestic violence. I am now homeless with no assets. You will get transferred from firm attorney to attorney multiple times and each time you will be billed for the transfer of your case. You will be billed for meetings that did not exist and for anything they do. Even if they misplace a file or document ...yes they will bill you for the time they spent looking for it. Recently hired another attorney who confirmed Cordell Cordell's unscrupulous practices and level of the scam. If your a man beware they are not there to help you they are there to assist your wife's attorney for gain. BEWARE!!!!!!!!! They are driven by greed and a policy that the since the man is generally the bread winner they have more money to fleece. They are ONLY there to take your money. If you need an attorney look elsewhere Cordell Cordell is not a practicing good faith legal firm THEY ARE A FRANCHISE of SCAMMERS!!!!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Homeless in NC.

This was the worst law firm I have ever dealt with they not only ruined my court date they gouge money out of me then quotes me the wrong price then triples the amount. I will never recommend these thieves. I fired him because I caught him in a lie. The man lied to us and I can prove it through my emails.

CORDELL & CORDELL - Taking advantage of men everywhere

I hired Cordell & Cordell believing they supported my interests as a father. Instead, they were charging me close to $1000/week just to push around paper between my wife's lawyer and the courts. When I asked for help determining how to pursue custody and financial matters, they seemed clueless. Never once did they take the lead. Instead, they let my wife's lawyer drive the whole process putting me on the defensive and losing everything I worked so hard for. For less than $1500 a new lawyer who knew what they were doing got it all back for me, but not until almost 3 years later. Cordell & Cordell is a shameful bunch of law school dropouts who spend all the money they steal from men on grand advertising and marketing to keep helpless dads rolling through the doors. I'm not alone. I have encountered tons of dads that were duped just like me. If you care about your kids or your financial well-being, find a lawyer you can trust, not Cordell and Cordell!

@>REVIEW544565 Ijust read your response and I guess you have not had to hire many lawyers per post divorce as I have- my divorce file is estimated to be about 16,000 pages and paying a team of attorneys 1000.00 a week is by no means much money at all, believe me I know how frustrating it is to be a Dad, the bread winner and then lose everything you have worked your whole life for and see it evaporate right in front of your eyes.

If your ex got the role "primary care giver" no lawyer is going to make you happy "family law" does not seem to feel that fathers are that important-

If you had the big issues with Cordell & Cordell you should have written the state bar and sought arbitration to see if you could get some retainer money back and not run your mouth online like some weak a-s bit-h and then you dont even have a username- I am a father of 3 great kids whose ex wife slapped a hocus pocus restraining order on for 10 years and has basically no relationship with the 3 things he loves the most consider yourself lucky.....

Hold on GUYS! It's getting better!

Joe Cordell is getting wise to the situation of some of the lawyers he has working for him. Got rid of a Ding-A Ling with initials of EHK out of Indianapolis recently. The guy is on his own but will never make it. I think if Joe Cordell does some house cleaning, his firm has a chance of his original vision....Helping Men through divorce.

Lets see what happens....

Guest

Money Pit of a Law Firm; same experience for me thousands of dollars in and nothing to show for it. Nice front porch but hold on to your check book. Their legal team approach is a farce!

Guest

So, we were looking into hiring these guys for a child support issue, but after reading these reviews, are having second thoughts. Anyone else you would recommend in the Raleigh area?

Guest

This is indeed the way CORDELL & CORDELL work. I think Joe Cordell would be a good attorney, but all the other staff under him are simply CLUELESS!

This same thing happened to me and I am screwed for LIFE! My representation gave it all away, barked like an attack dog on the phone, acted like a Lap Dog in court. Totally unreal and I personally believe the Judges see these attorneys as CUT RATE thieves too. Just my 2 cents!

Been There, DONE THAT! Just stay the H-E-L-L Away from CORDELL AND CORDELL ACROSS AMERICA!

Lawyer Service Review

The worst law office I have ever been to. They do not care about their clients. The lawyers are extremely unprofessional and though their website champions fathers rights they have no intrest in helping dads get their children. Don't waste your time or money on them.

Wow,,, I sure am Glad I came across all these complaints about Cordell & Cordell. I was about to recommend them to a friend.

That would have been something I would have regretted.

They spend a bunch on advertising but sound like a bunch of Crooks.

Thank You so very much!!

CROOKS!! OVERCHARGED, UNDER REPRESENTED, NO SOULS

DO NOT USE THIS FIRM!!!!!! THEY OVERCHARGE, OVER BILL, UNDER REPRESENT, AND LIE. THEY TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF MEN AND EMPTY THEIR POCKETS DURING A VERY SENSITIVE AND STRESSFUL TIME. THEY HAVE STATUS MEETINGS EVERY TWO WEEKS WITH TWO LAWYERS SO THEY CAN DOUBLE CHARGE YOU AND YOU ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THESE MEETINGS, NOR DO YOU GET THE INFORMATION.

MY LAWYER BULLIED ME INTO GIVING EVERYTHING THAT MY EX DEMANDED. I AM LEFT WITH NOTHING BUT A HUGE BILL FROM CORDELL (OVER $20,000), NO HOME, NO 401 K, NOT ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY MY MONTHLY BILLS BECAUSE MY EX GETS MOST OF MY CHECK (ALIMONY AND CHILD SUPPORT), AND I GOT STUCK WITH UNBELIEVABLE DEBT THAT MY EX ACCRUED FROM THE MARRIAGE. MICHELLE IN MT. LAUREL, NEW JERSEY BECAME DEFENSIVE AND RUDE WHEN I ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT MY BILL. SHE MADE SEVERAL MISTAKES THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS AND IF I AM CHARGED $265.00 AN HOUR, I EXPECT PERFECTION.

THEY PLAYED A GREAT SONG AND DANCE DURING THE CONSULT (WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR) AND A FEW WEEKS INTO THE PROCESS THINGS STARTED TO CHANGE. THESE PEOPLE ARE THIEVES AND THEY CERTAINLY DO NOT HAVE MENS BEST INTEREST. ALL THEY WANT IS THE MONEY AND THEY WILL KEEP THE CASE OPEN SO THEY CAN KEEP BILLING. I HOPE ONE DAY SOMEONE MARRYS HER AND SHE SUFFERS THE SAME FATE. WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND!! DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT HIRE THEM!!!!!

I had the same issue with this office and Mrs. Ferrari.

In the middle of my custody case that was about to go to trial. She became defensive would approached about the outrageous billing which sent me into a bad place financially and made me have to seek another attonery two short weeks before our trial.

I was pressured to settle and give up but lucklly I did not listen, I fired this firm and went to another attonery half of her price who won my case , I wouldn't have gotten that outcome with cordell!

Stay far away!

Yet another person Cordelled! They CANT escape God!

I have the same issue, very upset about this and the stories I am reading. Please email at dadripoff@***.com perhaps we can come together to work on this big problem.

Guest

Please we are currently going through the same thing. Over seven thousand dollars to set child support arrearage and cut off support for aged out children and haven't even been to court yet.

They have collected no evidence other than what we gave given them. They keep telling us to collect all the records they need.

what are we paying them for. Is there anything we can do?

Guest

I am now reserching complaints and there's alot and they are all the same. I am working on having them printed and investigated. I am hoping to make this very public.

I see alot of the same monetary ripoff evidence over and over.

Maybe US ATTORNEY eeds to get involved. I'm just sayin....

I'm not sure I understand your complaint in any way. If you're having a disagreement with them, you may want to file a complaint with the bar.

A Woman's Point Of View

My ex hired them when I filed for visitation modification. Attorney was not prepared. And again when Attorney General filed for Child Support. New attorney...same thing. She was not prepared. Had to delay hearing because...cough cough she didn't feel well. Only causing him more money. At hearing she put on a good show, but failed. And by the way....I didn't have one! So me against a high priced attorney and they failed. Something wrong with that picture. I know there are father's out there that truly are great dads and want what is best for their child. When all said and done I feel sorry that my ex used them. All the money he paid them could have been used for our child's college fund or vacation. Don't be blinded by them. What is in your child's best interest doesn't mean paying an "all for show" attorney that will set you up to fail.
