At Some Point You Have to Shut Up and Trust Your Attorney

If your in for the legal battle of yours and your children's life, at some point your going to have to live with your decision on the attorney you picked. You will be in too deep to turn back or change counsel and you will reach the jumping off point where you will have no choice but to trust your ...attorney and stop trying to steer his every decision. At some point you will have to step back and let him do the job you hired him to do. Without a doubt, Cory is the attorney you want talking to your Judge, GAL and the other attorney from the very beginning(not you!). I have been back to Court through the years with custody issues and Cory and Badesch Abramovitch and Natalie Darcy are a top notch firm that knows how to give their clients the best shot at an outcome they can be happy with. Cory has represented me for years(as a result of recurring issues) and the results he has delivered time and again are nothing less than the best. Don't believe those bad reviews, look no further than Cory and B&A. Hiring Cory and the money I've spent while legal battles aren't cheap was best decision I've ever made.

One of the best in the business! Cory gets my highest praise and my strongest recommendations!

Cory came into the picture after my case was already about 7 months into things. He helped get a pretty horrible situation under control from the very start. My original visitation order was VERY limited, 2 hours every other weekend. Cory was able to get a temporary visitation order put through ve...ry quickly which got me much more time with my daughter. From there he guided me through more than a year of fighting my case. His expertise made one of the most stressful periods of my life easier to deal with. My first attorney was an example of how bad a bad lawyer can be, but Cory showed me what proper representation is. My case is now complete, and I have Cory to thank for getting me joint custody, fair visitation, and stopping my daughter from being moved across the country. I could not be happier with the results. Words simply cannot express how grateful I am for all that he did for me and my family. Do not hesitate to hire this man if you are facing a family law case!

Visitation and Child Support for I. Mason

I've had various attorneys, and I was so discouraged and disappointed by what they accomplished, their follow up and lack of empathy left me bewildered. I felt like I had no true advocate. Cory helped me reestablish visitation, helped reduce my monthly payments, so that it was fair and in the best in...terest of my son. When meeting Cory, I feel that I secured an attorney that fought for my rights and helped me reestablish a connection with my son. So that I was no longer being a victim of personality conflicts when it came to visitation. He's a terrific lawyer and a wonderful human being. This man will fight for you. When we met, I was broken and afraid of the court system. Having him as my attorney, gives me all the confidence in the world.
