Highly knowledgeable. Excellent prices moves quickly and is all around out her clients not just in it for money.

I highly recommend her she's not only very professional but very kind hearted and all around fabulous she's gotten me full custody of my childrenx2 even with me being a male. I've used her for 3cases and won all hands down. Look no further trust me. She moves quickly and gets things done. I'd give he...r 50 stars if there was an option. My kids even think the world of her. She's that great trust me. You will not be disappointed.

Horrible and unprofessional :(

Corinne has been by far a horrible experience. My first time ever needing an attorney and I hope to never need one again if this is the experience. Originally she presented herself to be someone who genuinely wanted to help me but turned out being someone who most likely just wanted the $2500 retaine...r. She was never available for me when she said she would be. She never kept her word. She had an excuse for every mess up. She missed my court hearing. This was all in just a about a little over a month time frame of me hiring her. I would not ever recommend to anyone. Five months later she has yet to withdraw herself from my case and stopped communicating with me as well. She does not even deserve one star honestly :(

Brilliance in Action

If you are a foster parent and you have been wronged by the system, then we highly recommend Kokensparger and Ryan to represent you. It took use nearly 3 months to find out who were the best family lawyers who had expertise in this area. The State Bar gave us names, but when we contacted them they s...aid that they were not the experts. They also gave us names, who in turn gave us other names, who then finally led us to Ms. Ryan and Mr. Kokensparger. This is a firm you can count on to do what's right for you. Ms. Ryan shined throughout the 12 day hearing in front of a hearing officer. Her skill and professionalism were abundantly in evidence. It took many months for the Hearing Officer to make her recommendation due to the hundreds of pages of transcripts and exhibits. Her decision was IN OUR FAVOR, and we give credit to Ms. Ryan's handling of the evidence and her superior knowledge of the law and rules to which ODJFS is subject. We are still awaiting a final decision from ODJFS...

Genuine and professional

Corinne Ryan has been my attorney for several years. In that time she has been able to help me when others couldn't. She jumped into my case and righted an unimaginable wrong that needed speedy maneuvering. She poses the ability to navigate the courts and law, all the while placing my family's needs ...paramount. She has not only represented my family's best interests, but has unparalleled understanding of how to assist a women suffering from the most severe victimization by those closest to them. I will, and have, recommend friends to hire her as their counsel.
