Hope to never use him again, but glad I did back then

In 2005, Carl was recommended to me by a close friend that is also an attorney. His advice was spot on, and I'm pleased with the representation I received from Carl. I was charged with 3 felony marijuana charges and one misdemeanor. Kansas also has a drug tax stamp, which they happily helped themselv...es to from my bank account. Carl was able to get them to drop all charges, minus one felony and got 2/3rds of the tax money returned to me. Probation, and an early release at that was the end of my communication with Mr Cornwell. I was able to expunge the felony myself 3 years later.

Carl Cornwell

Carl is an excellent lawyer. He handled two serious felony cases for me, one being drug related and one being a kidnapping charge. I really reccommend that you make sure you understand what is going on in your case. He is a great lawyer but is getting older and it feels as if sometimes he forgets to ...do things or maybe feels that it isn't needed. I ended up serving very little jail time and had to take a felony in the drug case, I feel a little more could have been done but regardless he did an effective job. I really recommend him on violent crimes more so than drug offenses. He is excellent in the court room as well and is liked by most every judge in Johnson County. Make sure your case is truly worth the money although he is not cheap, once again I highly recommend for violent crimes. He is a nice guy and has over thirty years experience.
