Best decision I made!

I worked with Cortney for my very challenging case, and to say that I would not be where I'm at today without her support throughout the process is an understatement. Facing every issue that could come up in a divorce, she helped me navigate the process to lead to a favorable outcome. The prompt resp...onses to any question I had was reassuring and the advice throughout the processes was great. Highly recommend!

Highly Recommend Cortney Whitehouse

I worked with Cortney for about 8 months. She was very fast at responding to any questions or concerns and clarified things well to help me understand the process. She was very realistic about the expectations and guided me on the things I needed to do to achieve the outcome I was seeking. In the ...end she helped me get exactly what I wanted with my parenting time issue. I would recommend her to anyone needing a family lawyer and will use her in the future if needed.

Cortney's review

Cortney was very professional with my divorce. She was very knowledgeable with any issues that came up and she delt with any problems right away. She didn't drag things out, she handled things promptly and she let me know what I needed to do along the way to keep things moving along smoothly. Her f...ees were very reasonable and affordable. I would recommend Cortney to anyone that needs an attorney that's going to fight for you.

I was very pleased with the job Cortney did in representing me in my divorce. She was responsive to all questions and concerns I had. She gave me very good advice about the options available to me. She got me a very fair result. It was nice to find a divorce lawyer with integrity!

Delighted!!

Cortney was very steady and professional through the whole process. Displayed great organizational skills, extremely knowledgeable, and never kept me in the lurch when it mattered. When it did matter, the responses were always focused on the law and unwavering despite the emotional roller coaster o...f divorce. I love my kids dearly and it was very important for me as my boys' father to have a positive and full 50% presence in their life to establish the foundation they need from their father and Cortney navigated the legal channels for me to get there and always on the high road which I deeply respect.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
