Adoption

My adoption agency connected me with Vaughn. He was great to work with and made this adoption process easy and helpful. I was matched and we finalized in Nov. I definitely recommend him!

Adoption

After being in an adoption process for 2 years we were introduced to Vaughn and matched immediately. He we helpful in establishing communication between us and the birth mother and giving wisdom when needed. At the end of the process he helped us finalize with ease. He cares about his clients as well... as the birth parents who are involved in the process.

Smooth Adoption

After being on the adoption journey for two years we matched with a birth family and met Vaughn. His wisdom and demeanor gave us a lot of comfort in this “confusing and overwhelming” process. Vaughn was extremely helpful during the birth and the days when we were waiting to be able to leave. He made ...it quick and seamless in our eyes even though there was a lot going on to make it happen. Vaughn truly cares about all parties involved and seeks the best for them. We are so thankful to Vaughn for playing such a huge role in bringing our family together.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2015.

Reprimand issued in AR, 2015

updated on 06/23/2015

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
