One of a Kind

After working with Corri this past year with my child custody case I've come to recognize her as the voice of reason in my life especially in moments when I am overwhelmed with emotion. She always takes the time to be completely honest about what my situation is and never offers false promises. Both ...which I believe are extremely important in a client/attorney relationship. Then her knowledge and understanding of the legal system makes her the BEST choice especially when you want someone who does not back down!! I love her unflinching honesty and devotion to my case every step of the way. She gave my case the same respect and attention as she does all her cases. Her strengths come from her incredible work ethic, great organizational abilities and acute attention to detail. She truly fights for the best outcome for her clients, I never felt as if she did not give it her everything. In addition, her communication with me during the process helped put my mind at ease and helped me see that she always sought the best possible option. I truly believe that her level of professionalism, honesty and unflinching commitment to her clients makes her one of a kind. I am lucky to have such an incredible woman on my side!

client's experience

I did consult with Corri Fetman a couple of times in the last 2 years. She is very professional, and she dedicates her time to her clients. Corri is well known in her field, and I would recommend her to my relatives and friends. She is honest, competent, and very diplomatic. I had an excellent exper...ience! She is phenomenal!!!

Extremely professional, analytical, uniquely strategic, ethical and respectful attorney!

After a previously unsuccessful approach to dissolving my marriage, I knew I needed a change and fast! I was referred to Ms. Fetman by a mutual, professional acquaintance. Corri Fetman was known for her results, but I was a little intimidated by her celebrity status, and worried that I would not be a...ble to afford her services. After our initial consult, I knew I had to retain her as my attorney. Corri completely explained the divorce process and the correct approach/strategy for my specific situation. She was non-judgmental and clearly not the stereo-typical stuffy, pompous lawyer personality. Corri may be known as ‘Barracuda Barbie’, but make no mistake, she is the real deal! I walked away from our initial meeting, knowing I was in the right hands. I personally work in Technology and as such am ‘type A’, but Corri Fetman is ‘type AAA’. She has an insane attention to detail, communicates consistently throughout the process, and drives successfully to a desired outcome. The divorce process is truly about strategy, inspecting and adapting to the opposing party’s actions. I learned so much from Corri throughout this process. As hard as it was, I had to relinquish control and put my trust in someone else to guide this course. With Corri, my trust was well-placed and I knew she had my back, every step of the way. Corri Fetman is extremely professional, highly analytical, uniquely strategic and above all, the most ethical and respectful attorney!

Child custody champ

I hired Corri to represent me in the midst of an awful and disheartening child custody battle. There was everything from false accusations to false testimonies that we were up against. Corri's strategy was concise and clear. This made a clear vision for me to see the outcome she predicted. The jud...ge awarded me the sole custodial parent and cleared me from all false accusations. I have referred to several friends and family members for a wide variety of legal services and will continue to do so. Thanks again Corri!!
