Couldn't Have Asked For Better!

Paul handled what was a messy divorce to start with. From start to finish, finances and child custody went smoothly considering the circumstances. Paul was straight forward but encouraging and knows his profession to a "T". We went to trial and witnesses were called. The witnesses that were called to...ld me that Paul made them feel comfortable on the stand, even when nervous his smile and demeanor reassured and calmed them. His arguments showed his years in a successful practice. Things ended up what was best for our family and I would recommend Paul Cornnett to anyone.

Refreshingly Client-Focused

I engaged Paul's legal expertise to help me through a grueling divorce years ago from an emotionally-abusive spouse when my children were toddlers. With his guidance, I was granted sole legal custody of my children and primary placement. Most recently, Paul successfully represented my family in the ...termination of my ex-spouse's legal parental rights and the successful adoption of my children by my new spouse. Paul has been a rock - he's a fair, honest and non-judging advisor who knows our local court system and authorities inside and out. Worth every penny when I think of how life could have turned out for my children and me. I would recommend Paul to any parent/spouse dealing with complex end-of-marriage and custody issues.

Very professional and knowledgeable

Paul has been my attorney for many years. He has handled various legal issues for me through the years and recently helped me settle an estate. He will go out of his way to make things as easy as possible for you. While family member was in the hospital he even came there in order for us to sign s...ome forms to makes things easier for us. He and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable. His rates are fair and he always keeps you informed and returns all calls in a timely manner. I highly recommend Paul for any legal issues you might have.

Confident and very professional

Attorney Cornett was very helpful in a recent custody hearing we were involved in. Attorney Cornett gathered all the facts on the case and presented them in a very professional and knowledgeable way. He and his office staff always kept us up to date and informed on all happenings with our case. We fe...lt that he had the child in the custody hearing best interest at hand throughout the entire process. We are very thankful for the work Attorney Cornett provided to us and would highly recommend him.

Excellent at providing advice based upon prior experiences

Paul was very compassionate as he helped me through my divorce. His years of experience in the field was very encouraging as he advised me on the legal process and what I would be expecting. He provided me with sound advice and was there to explain anything that I had questions with. Paul was truly a...n extension of me during the divorce process.
