Posted by Ron | May 07, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Knowledgable and compassionate

Fakiha's knowledge, courtroom abilities and pre-trial preparation helped me get kids custody as well as a just and equitable division. She was instrumental in being able to communicate to the court my side of the story with facts and witnesses where required. There are no winners in family court but ...she did a great job in representing and fighting my case. Anyone going through a difficult time can always connect with Fakiha and get consultation and make a decision on their own to retain her services. I can highly recommend her based on my experience.

Posted by Hameed | June 16, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent experience, confident, dedicated and friendly

I was blessed to be acquainted with Ms. Khan and referred to her via a counseling session at Cordell & Cordell regarding my divorce case. I am fully satisfied with her level of knowledge, professionalism, involvement, and passion for helping me out, all at a reasonable price. I highly recommend her... for all family-related matters!
