My client was WRONGFULLY ACCUSED of Rape, Kidnapping, Felonious Assault and Domestic Violence by a former girlfriend. The police didn't care that her story was not credible OR that she had FALSELY ACCU ... SED ANOTHER PERSON before and changed her story in trial on the witness stand.

OUTCOME: Full custody awarded father of three children
Mother was awarded custody of children in divorce over vehement objections by dad. Unfortunately, father's argument(s) fell on deaf ears with the court. His original divorce lawyer didn't get the job d ... one. Until finally, father hired attorney Korduba to help him in this high-conflict disaster of a case. After several more years of battle in and out of the courtroom, attorney Korduba finally convinced the court to grant full custody of a father's three minor children to him from an unstable and abusive mother. MEN REJOYCE! There is jusitice for father's in domestic relations court!!!
OUTCOME: Not Guilty on all counts!
Attorney Korduba was hired to defend and innocent man. These are the worst cases for an attorney because you simply CANNOT lose. Your client's life and freedom depend on your ability to show a jury t ... hat someone is lying and not telling the truth. A very tough thing to do. Dad was arrested and charged with a first-degree misdemeanor (facing 6 months in jail) for allegedly assulting his adult daughter during an argument. Dad argued that he never touched his daugther and that the false allegation was made to kick him out of the house so her mother would get the house in a divorce. The case went to Jury Trial. After a day-long trial, the jury came back NOT GUILTY in less than ten (10) minutes!!! Instead of asking the jury what he did right, attorney Korduba asked what he did wrong, or what he could have done better next time. Three jurors told attorney Korduba he was the best they had ever seen - right out of a movie or TV show. One juror told Korduba that if he was ever in trouble for anything, that he would want a lawyer like that representing him in court. "You were like a pitt-bull in there" pointing out all the flaws, lies and inconsistencies in the "victim's" testimony. We didn't believe her for a minute, they said. GREAT JOB.
OUTCOME: Over $50,000 recovered for injured victim
While out with friends one eveneing, a woman was assaulted and injured by a drunk woman at the bar. The drunk patron was not collectible and the bar did not want to pay for serving the drunk alcohol t ... hat night. She hired attorney Korduba to fight for her rights in court. Immediately after the lawsuit was filed, the bar owner settled via his insurnace carrier and the drunk woman also agreed to payout money to get out of jail and her criminal case. No one wanted the case and told the client she would never see any money out of her injury. Attorney Korduba made it happen and got 100% of the fair value of her case from the bar owner's insurance. Don't take "no" for an answer. FIGHT BACK. WIN.
OUTCOME: Settlment over 1.5 million for injured victim
A 75 year old mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who lived through both World Wars and the Great Depression was forever changed when she went in for Knee Replacement Surgery. She came out with ... permanent injury and paralysis that eventually resulted in amputation of the leg from the knee down almost two agonizing years later. This was one of the most clear-cut medical malpractice cases I had ever seen and an unfortunate example of our medical malpractice system today. The insurance company first argued that there was "no liability" for the injury and then claimed that if there was, the injury was not "permanent" and thus, "capped" at only $500,000 by Ohio law anyway. They also fought over who would pay her medical bills which were almost a million dollars too. A HUGE LAWSUIT was filed against not only the doctor's insurance, but the nurses' insurance, hosptial insurance and even product manufacturer for over two years before the case was finally settled for over one-and-a-half million dollars PLUS made them pay the medical bills too!!! No amount of money can/will EVER compensate the victim for this HORRIFFIC tragedy, but we would NOT let them inflict another financial hardhip upon this family. Through our firm resources, we were able to hold the negligent parties responsible for the harm they caused to this poor woman and family.
