I hired them to represent me and in a years time had 4 lawyers . The prior 3 all left firm for reasons enhancing their careers , from each lawyer assigned, all had interacted to gather documents and information pertinent to case. Meanwhile from all the interactions between each lawyer leaving they have to get up to speed with my case as new lawyer. To sum it up, had to pay balance of 6100$ or given 10 day notice to withdrawal from case if not paid in full. In December my third appointed attorney left and wasn't assigned a n... read more

I needed a lawyer to represent me for a custody case. After meeting with a lawyer I decided to hire him just to find out I got a young lawyer who wanted to side with my ex-wife. He never truly represented me or communicated with me. Finally before my hearing date he decides to drop me. These guys are also thrives they've charged me way over the time they spent in the case with no representation for me.

Made a bad experience worse. Did not follow through on anything that was promised. Would not recommend.

Was quoted at 2,000$ for a child support hearing but my total bill was over 20,000$ 10xs my quote . On there billing portal you can see they were changing Me thousands to read and review documents and emails it was obscene like I would send a copy of paystub and be charged 450$ to review it. Shannon Howley was my lawyer and she was terrible. My child support has now nearly doubled and ive wasted thousands of dollars on this firm complete waste of my money. In hindsight I should have never hired cordell and cordell it was a ... read more

In my opinion it's nothing more than a scam to rob people to drain money out of there bank account, I had such a terrible experience with Cordell and Cordell. I wish I had not gone with what they advertise (Dad's or Men's rights, lol ) forget about rights you won't even get basic service. I contacted Cordell and Cordell to report about my dissatisfaction and I didn't even received a basic expected customer service from them. I felt like my attorney from Cordell and Cordell was doing nothing more than copying opposite councel... read more

Truely they deserve a 0 star. This firm is a crooked as they get. Want to spend 10s of thousands of dollars and have nothing done? Tell everyone you know to NEVER use this firm, unless you want to be broke and lose your case.

Would constantly pressure for arguments with opposing attorney for more income and come away nothing. This is a parasitic attorney that threatened twice to drop me days before our court case and avoided any accountability with last second threats of withdrawal. I was represented by the Milwaukee Office by two separate attorneys and got nothing but harassment by corporate. After firing them for a 2nd time and $15k later, my GAL suggested long ago to fire and self represent and wish I listened. Thank you Laura Stack and Kyle ... read more

I am an indigent military veteran. I am in Madison, WI. I hired Cordell & Cordell to help. I told them to assign the cheapest attorney they have. They assigned 2 attorneys to my case without my permission and charged me for both. They charged me over $3000 for one hearing during a 7 day period. They charged me $300 for copies of documents I provided to them myself.

Hi All! Please take two minutes to save yourself THOUSANDS!! This is a review about the service and representation received from Cordell & Cordell. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! I retained this law firm's representation and it was far worse that I ever could have imagined. Now, I completely understand that divorce is a tedious and expensive process; however, the representation received for the price billed is preposterous. I retained the services of Sanders Patton. I am more concerned about who is more at fault, the State Bar for al... read more
