BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE
I was referred to Scott from a colleague. I initially completed a consultation to see what my options were in preparation of a possible custody battle. I was very pleased with his professionalism and knowledge. I wanted to pursue full custody but did not think I had a chance at all with Texas being pro-woman in most situations and experience from a previous custody battle in another county. Scott was very confident in pursuing full custody and ensuring that my rights as a father would be enforced. I walked out of my consultation feeling great but decided to go against his recommendation to file for custody before my children’s mother decided to do so. A couple months later, I was served with custody paperwork from the AG. I again consulted with Scott thinking that I did not have a chance at full custody and that I just wanted my rights enforced as a father. Scott again reassured me that I should push for full custody and that he would do his very best to ensure that if I didn’t get full custody that he would push for me having more rights to my children than just a standard possession order. I never doubted his judgement and agreed. Scott took care of the counter petition, ensured that my rights as a father were enforced so that I was able to see my children in the due process before court, and helped guide me through the entire process. We started with trying to hire an amicus attorney to avoid a trial but couldn’t reach a mutual agreement. Instead, we were forced to hire a home study. Scott provided me with homework to help him with my case that was paramount in the final decision. I provided Scott and Kendall with tons of detailed documentation that were later used in court to assist. This same documentation was provided to the home study along with the home study’s requested documentation. The home study ruled in my favor! Once in court, Scott ensured that the right evidence was shown during the trial. The judge ruled in my favor and granted me full custody of my children! I do not think this would have been the case if I would have hired a different attorney. Scott and Kendall are an amazing team and they are highly recommended!

Made the absolute best out of a bad situation
Scott and Kendall make best legal team that you could want front and center defending you. My case lasted almost a year and a half, and during that time they listened to everything I had to say, made me feel heard, and treated me like family. Their hard work and dedicated efforts got me everything and more when it came time for the verdict. You can’t go wrong with Scott Cornuaud.

Exceptional experience
I hired Scott to help with a custody battle after being served. Scott took care of the counter petition, and helped guide me through the process. We started the route with an amicus hoping to avoid a trial, however we were not able to reach a mutual agreement. I had a ton of documentation and notes saved in case this custody issue ended back up in court. Scott and Kendall were able to sift through those notes and consolidate them into a list of facts that mattered the most before going to trial. Scott made sure the right evidence was shown during the trial, proving all of my claims to the court. The final ruling granted everything I asked for. You can't always gauge how a trial will go. Even if the ruling had not granted what I had asked, I would not have held that against Scott or Kendall. I believe they did a great job organizing the evidence presented, and then fighting for what's right at the legal level. I hope the need doesn't arise again, but if it does this team will be the first one I try to hire.

Scott is an excellent investment
I hired Scott when it became necessary for me to finally file for divorce after separation and any attempts at amicable cooperation were exhausted. My ex and I originally separated because I “came out of the closet.” As a homosexual man, I was concerned that I could possibly run into discrimination or awkwardness when finding representation. Scott and Kendall were nothing but professional. I was always treated with respect, care and dignity. My ex was attempting to get awarded spousal maintenance. Not only was Scott able to demonstrate why spousal maintenance was not necessary, he was also able to effectively argue in court for me to retain the entirety of my retirement account. Scott was reasonable on his fee for representing me, with no hidden or surprise fees. He will not waste your time or his to rack up hours. We communicated via email and phone as necessary, but not in excess. If you leave messages and send emails, they will get answered. Hiring Scott was probably one of the best investments I have ever made.

hes my lawyer and treated me like a friend
i got extremely lucky when kendall answered the phone on a holiday when nobody else would, i was starting a divorce after family violence and didnt know where to turn. scott had my best interest in mind at every turn, a simple non contested divorce turned ugly and scott never missed a beat. he was fair and had great advice. i hope i never need his help in a divorce again but no matter what i may need a lawyer for in the future, scott cornuaud will be my first pick. i didnt read reviews before i picked him and like i said i got lucky, you dont have to be lucky, be smart.

Best attorney every!
Talked to several attorney’s around the area. None of them really wanted to help! Then speaking with Scott and his wife, I knew right then they wanted to help! Was definitely a long process, but any questions I ever had he answered with the best care and interest for my child, if he wasn’t sure he looked it up and give me the best and true answer! Finally went to court after 2 years and he done just what he said he was going to do! ❤️ Definitely recommend Scott 100%!!

Tenacious, Passionate, Knowledgeable
You won't find many like Scott Cornuaud. Scott was more than outstanding when I had to fight for my rights in a corrupt CPS case. After my cooperation with CPS, it still wasn't enough for them. I hired Scott Cornuaud who impressed us with his knowledge, tenacity and refusal to be bullied by a flawed system. Seeing the obvious abuse of power by CPS, Scott laid down the law in the courtroom. CPS went in asking for an Aid to continue the investigation but left with a denial and a cease and desist harassment of our family. Scott, Kendall and the entire office were incredible, passionate, understanding and beyond helpful throughout our entire process. If you're also dealing with CPS in any aspect, I suggest you hire Scott and the Law Office immediately.

Stop looking you found the lawyer you are looking for.
I have had a child custody issues for 10 years and 8 months. I was ready to seek full custody and take my child's needs and wants into action myself. After seeking Scott he was upfront , honest, clear, and didn't try to give me false hope. He is more then fair with his prices. Kendall is great, she and Scott are a power couple that keep me updated and always responded to every question and need. First day in court I was granted temp custody after 7 months I now have sole full custody.

It was just so easy
I contacted Scott after putting off my divorce for years bc I just didn't want to deal with it. He talked me through the whole thing and explained what would happen during the process. He gave me a very fair price and went to work immediately and now it's all over. He was very understanding and made the process so easy. I very highly recommend him for anyone looking to get a divorce

Scott Got the Job Done!
My divorce took 27 months. No friendly divorce takes 27 months, although the first 5 months were friendly. Scott was involved for 22 months of the process. Scott was recommended by a successful businesswoman with multiple businesses in Hunt County. I think the first thing you understand about Scott and his wife/assistant Kendal is they care about the people they represent. From Day One I never got the feeling that I was just a case number that had to be processed. With some attorneys, you get the sense they are focused on the legal fee meter running and their clients come in a distant 2nd. I felt Scott was going to get me out of a difficult situation and look out for my interests in doing it. When I first consulted with Scott, I thought my divorce was about to end. He said Settle, Settle, Settle! which was music to my ears. And then my divorce went down a rabbit hole. We have some rental real estate and a contested divorce with our assets being sold by the court could have been a disaster. As it dragged on and on, Scott advised me that we may have to end this with a "Contested Divorce". I have no doubt that Scott would have fought hard and professionally on my behalf if it would have been a contested divorce. In the end, my wife and I agreed to a fair settlement on the real estate and we agreed to division of personal property without Mediation which saved us a lot of money. Don't underestimate the value of your attorney having a good sense of humor in difficult times. I went to Scott's office either angry or over-the-top frustrated over the length and the details of my divorce. After some funny remarks and stories and some keen advice I always felt better. You have to remain calm in these situations. He always told me "We get through this" and I believed him. He got me out of the rabbit-hole! I would strongly recommend Scott Cornuaud to represent you as your attorney.

Great Family Lawyer
Scott and Kendall make the best team. I was able to reach out to them at all times while they were handling things for me. They listened and helped me work everything out in the best possible way that protected all involved. I love how family oriented they are and how warm they were when I would visit their office. They are wonderful people and I would use them again.

Proper/Legal Representation
Scott A. Cornuaud is an exceptionally well-rounded attorney. Scott, managed to beat COVID-19 during a surge and keep up with our original court date. Initially, I thought my case would be moved and to my surprise, he kept the date! Thankfully, I am divorced. Scott definitely practices the law, according to the law, provides facts to the Court, and delivers the results he is retained for. Also, he's sincerely genuine and honest when he's not able to take your case, effectively or efficiently.
