Great experience

Andy provided a 20 minute free consultation for me and made the most sense of any attorney I've talked with. He was efficient, and got right to the point of what I needed to do next. It involved advising me to retain an attorney in a different state, but he will definitely be the first on my list ...to call if I need to pursue litigation in Ohio.

Posted by Tyler Farner | January 05, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Third-Party Custody

I hired Mr. Korduboa in March 2023 to handle a custody case. A custody case involving a child that was not biologically mine, or my husbands that we had had in our care for 2 1/2 years, me and my husband provided for this child financially medically emotionally and physically. Her biological parents ...who were not together decided that they wanted their child back. biological parents went to court and obtained an emergency, temporary order of custody. When I hired Mr. Korduboa he told me that these cases were very hard to prove. That you needed to prove one thing in four different categories for each parent. He explained to me and my husband, how very hard and emotional this was going to be. he explained to us that this is not done. He explained to me and my husband that courts do not give children who are not yours biologically. He explained to us that we were asking a court to take away a biological parents constitutional rights to raise their child how they see fit . His staff was very helpful and answered any and all the questions me and my husband had. His staff is absolutely wonderful. His secretary literally called us with joy, and to congratulate us on what we had done. Mr. Korduboa obtained legal custody for me and my husband of this child. this had not been done in the surrounding areas in 30 years. In 30 years a court had not granted legal custody of a child to someone other than that child’s biological parents Mr. Kordouba is a bulldog of an attorney. He will fight for you all the way he gave me and my husband the best gift anyone could ever give us. He got us our child back. He got our Child back when it hadn’t been done in 30 years.. I will forever be in his debt.

A Must read review. Thank you

I was "wrongfully charged" with a crime in Medina Ohio and my Lawyer Andrew Korduba fought the prosecutors to reduce the charge. I only received probation. NO JAIL OR PRISON time. Contacting Andrew was super easy and convenient, he was available 24/7 and always had and answer to my question. However ...it may not always been the answer I wanted to hear or not. Be he was very honest with me, Not once did he lie to me or sugar coat anything. He was always directed and pointed me the direction I needed to go. He always told me and talked me through what was gonna happen before it happened. I recommend him to anyone. I have used Andrew now on different occasions. Mainly child support. But this particular event is when he really stepped up to the plate and help me out tremendously. Thank you Andrew for everything
