Adoption

Vaughn helped us with the adoption of our baby girl. He is a very busy man, but he was always available to us when we needed his help. Highly recommend him.

Adoption Review

I can not tell you how much we appreciated Vaughn -Michael H during our adoption process ! He answered all our questions throughout the process and was always available every step of the way. He made us feel at ease during the most stressful possible time. I cannot recommend him enough!

Adoption Peace

Our adoption was a little chaotic from the time we were matched, but Vaughn gave us peace and helped us navigate the obstacles. He kept us informed and answered our questions timely. He is knowledgeable and fair.

Couldn't have asked for better!

With the help of Mr. Cordes, my husband and I adopted a beautiful baby boy in May of 2021. We had so many questions and so many fears as we had already gone through a failed adoption a year prior while working with another attorney. Vaughn quietly yet confidently calmed all our fears. He was extre...mely knowledgeable and helped us with everything we needed. No question was too small. He always took time for us and responded quickly to any questions that we had. He was wonderful to work with. He helped tremendously in coordinating things with the hospital at the time of the birth - which wasn't easy given restrictions placed by COVID. He's even followed up with us since we have been home with our son. Our adoption was final just 10 days after our son's birth which is phenomenal! Overall, we can't say enough good things about Vaughn. If we choose to adopt again, we will definitely be contacting Vaughn. He was a joy to work with!

Adoption Review

Vaughn Cordes helped my husband and I with the adoption of our little boy in May 2016. He matched us very quickly with the birth mother, (1 day) and was very helpful and patient throughout the whole process. Vaughn procured us a quick adoption court hearing, and we left Arkansas with our legal son ...in 10 days. Vaughn has a heart of gold, and I know he cares deeply for the people involved....the birth parents, the child and the adoptive family. We are so grateful for Vaughn, and we highly recommend him to anyone who needs an adoption attorney.

Professional misconduct

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.
