The Best

Mrs. Cox took her time to listen and become familiar with my case. She was professional and caring. I feel a sense of optimism and calm that about my long family law case that I haven't felt in years. I would recommend her to anyone faced with a difficult court case.

Excellent Attorney Excellent Team of Professionals

I met with a few divorce attorneys before my employer recommended Loriann Cox. Unlike the other attorneys I met with, Lorie made me feel like she cared about me, my family, and my future. During our first meeting, she took the time to explain different divorce options and what I should expect from ea...ch. When the time came to file for the divorce, Lorie, Natoria and Kelly guided me through each step of the divorce process. My divorce was not simple with a lot of unusual problems. Lorie tried to avoid the cost and stress of a trial with mediation and settlement. She always told me when she did not agree with me and cared about spending my legal fees wisely which I found was rare. She is very skilled in explaining the legal matters in simple terms that you can understand. With every matter that arose throughout the divorce, Lorie and her team handled it promptly, professionally, and with integrity. When an issue arose that required swift action because of a closing date, Lorie worked through the evening to find a solution to the matter. I trusted that she always had my best interest at heart. Lorie and her team’s exceptional knowledge of the law and finances, along with their compassion and concern for my future made me feel that I had the best representation during one of the most stressful times of my life. I would highly recommend Loriann Cox and her firm to anyone who needs legal assistance with a divorce.

Great divorce lawyer!

Ms Cox was my second lawyer. The first lawyer was absolutely useless. He made me waste a lot of time and charged me for stuff he didn't even worked on. However, Ms Cox has been an amazing lawyer. She was always in charge of teh situation. She informed me throughout the process and I got my divorce on...ly after 3 months of hiring her. My husband was trying to drag his feet- and he managed to do this for a year with the first lawyer. Ms Cox did everything right including filing Motion to contempt to get him moving. She was also a great emotional support. I would recommend this great lawyer to everybody when it comes to divorce. She really made this process a lot easier...

Excellent Consul

She did want I wanted and worked with me to find the best way to protect me. Very easy to work with kept me informed and gave me good solid consul. Was understanding when I did not take her advice. I would have been so much better off if I did, but I tried to get back with my wife anyway . Does no...t overbill.

Filed a lien against me the day before court

This attorney represented me in my divorce and sent me an invoice on the 8th February, then filed a lien on the 9th February without consulting with me. We went to court and spoke and "hugged each other" goodbye on the 10th February and not once in our multiple conversations did she mention that she ...was worried about payment and had filed a lien against me. I paid on the 11th February and was horrified to receive a hard copy of the lien in the mail on 2/15/16 with no explanation. I had to rush and consult with another attorney to get this situation resolved. Dismissal of lien was filed on the 16th February !!!!! That is 5 days after payment was received! She is quick to file against you and takes her time correcting the situation. I felt this attorney caused a lot of unnecessary additional stress and I would not hire her.

Although this review is not an accurate version of events, I am sorry that you were offended by our office's policy and procedures regarding unpaid legal fees. These policies are necessary to ensure that our law firm and staff are able to give the best attention and services to our clients. I was glad to hear that you were happy with our legal services, as my staff and I worked very hard to assist you, including taking time during weekends and after hours to address matters for you. I do wish you and your family the very best. -Lorie Cox, Esquire
