Cordell & Cordell - Divorce Attorney Office

"Cora was my attorney for my divorce. I didn't have the first clue of what to expect as I had never been divorced or even needed a lawyer before. Cora was always very professional, knowledgeable, incredibly understanding with my endless questions and truly cared about me and how I felt about every step of the process. I would recommend Cora in a heartbeat!!"

"My experience with Cordell and with Adam Onkels was a nightmare. After nearly $10k down the drain in only 8 weeks with nothing to show for it and no strategy going forward, I parted ways. My requested temporary order hearing was a disaster because Adam went in overconfident and way under prepared. He left out critical details in his arguments and was consistently flat footed against a superior opposing attorney. Even though he, himself, expressed absolute disbelief in the commissioners decisions, Cordell still took no responsibility that his actions contributed to the raw outcome that their client now has to live with. I have all of the communications, and am happy to share them with anyone interested."

"We had an unbelievably horrible experience. Our attorney, Heidi, did not file the paperwork that needed to be submitted to the court before our case, a costly mistake for us, as the other attorney objected and so the main reason we went to court, could not even be address. She was unprepared, we had to resubmit paperwork numerous times, as they were disorganized. We paid over $8000 and in the end, the representation was subpar at best. Our attorney did not do her job. If you are looking for a law firm my suggestion is to pass on Cordell & Cordell. You can find better representation with a smaller firm. Just FYI, when customer service called us, to inquire about our experience, we were told that although they wouldn’t be able to do anything with our bill, they appreciated our feedback. Honestly, the mistakes made in court will cost us greatly...a small discount on our bill can’t fix that!"

"I worked with Erica Gittings for a collaborative divorce and am thoroughly satisfied with the process. She was adept at guiding me through all steps and made excellent recommendations for local divorce coaches. she was informed, accessible and always thinking ahead. I feel like I received the best possible outcome for my family. her support team was seamless. she was recommended to me by a divorce lawyer in Chicago -- and I see why."

"My experience with Cordell & Cordell and attorney Erica Gittings was invaluable. What a tremendous job she and her firm did! Going through a divorce is challenging enough so to have the support and guidance I did from Erica was truly appreciated and literally made the process less painful. She kept me on pace and informed of every happening, whether good or bad. She explained in detail what was in front of us and gave me honest and credible answers and reasons to all questions I had as well. She listened to my concerns and always had a viable answer. I never once felt as though I was being left in the dark. Her expertise and manor was nothing less than superb! I am also certain if I had used another attorney my cost would have far exceeded what it was with Cordell. I am confident I made the right choice with attorney Erica Gittings and Cordell & Cordell. Thank you Erica!"
