Great Attorney

I went to Cory for my divorce after he was highly recommended numerous times on a local Facebook page. He was really easy to talk to and both he and Mitzi were proactive in getting my case filed and always responded to me with updates very quickly and were always quick to reply when I needed them. ...Cory was able to resolve my case in a way that best suited my needs with as little pain points as possible. My situation had great potential to be a very volatile and stressful one, but Cory was able to help both sides come to an agreement without it erupting into a tumultuous court hearing. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

The absolute BEST!

Cory Ricci is the epitome of professional legal counsel and a Godsend for my son and I. He earned my trust completely by being available each time I needed him and by always offering highly educated, sound advice. Which, in turn, gave me priceless relief of any apprehension I endured throughout my ca...se. He went beyond all measure to make sure my case was strong in a court that seemed set in traditional ways before I entered its doors and presented a defense so overwhelming that it may very well have set a breakthrough precedent for other families who follow with my same situation. He is a gentleman with morals who treated me with respect and genuine care for my concerning predicament. Throughout our time preparing for trial, he left me with no doubt as to how he has represented past clients and knows no other way than to treat future clients the same. He made me feel safe and comfortable on the stand when I was terrified my voice couldn’t express what my heart was willing the judge to hear. His stance and line of questioning made my heart pour out all that needed to be said, with ease. Every line of work requires great ambition and dedication to become great. Cory exceeded my expectations not by only having both the ambition and dedication to be great. He exceeded them by sharing the gift of what he was born to do, and that is to seek justice and help hold accountable, the unjust. To say I highly recommend him would be an understatement. To all who need the best representation one could ask for, you absolutely cannot go wrong by having this man as your attorney. He doesn’t stop fighting for what is right. My son and I are living proof that you will not walk away disappointed of his representation. You will walk away knowing without a doubt that he poured everything he had in him into your case. I have never been so thankful.

Highly Recommend

Retained Cory to handle my unfortunate divorce... He was extremely professional. I never found myself having to call his office with any questions regarding this case, either himself or his assistant Mitzi were ON TOP of everything. They let me know in great detail what meant what and what to expect... throughout. Being new to this I was very scared going in but the entire staff made it much easier to deal with. Cory did EVERYTHING that I asked of him and at times he even advised me when to keep my mouth closed for my best interest which is something I've never been good at. Cory was very tenacious in the courtroom and made clear to the defendant he would not settle for less than what we came to court for. He went above and beyond in my opinion! Very personable, diligent, and organized. Also called after everything was done just to check on how life was moving forward. 10/10 recommend.

Best Lawyer Around

I first met Cory in 2020. I had a couple of consults over the phone with a bunch of lawyers in 2020. I need someone to represent me in a very high conflict divorce and custody battle. When I called Cory, I knew it would be a good match. He didn’t judge me for my past or look down on me for anything. ...He took on the year and a half mess of a divorce. If I had questions on a Sunday, at 8pm, it didn’t matter. Cory texted me back and would proceed to email the other party’s representation. He got the best outcome for me in that. In early 2022, I hired him again for a separate custody matter. Cory went above and beyond, again, and got the exact outcome I asked for. He is kind, understanding, and quite honestly funny and laid back. When it comes to court and being in front of a judge, he is tenacious, aggressive, and most importantly- extremely prepared. I will hire him for as long as he’ll represent me if I need another lawyer. He is a fabulous person and lawyer.

Cory is great!

We used Cory for a step parent adoption case after seeing his name recommended a lot on social media. He was the first lawyer I contacted and I knew it was a perfect fit after our first phone call. He explained everything very clearly and was quick to answer any questions I had. He even took my phone... call while on a vacation. Very nice guy, very knowledgeable too. Our process was very simple and it was a genuine pleasure getting to work with and meet Cory and his paralegal Mitzi. Thank you guys so much.
