Scott Allan Cornuaud

Scott and Kendall were incredible with helping me work through my divorce and custody case. He was honest and straightforward about fair up front pricing and expectations going into each court hearing. He fought for the best outcome for my child and I'm so blessed and thankful for 50/50 custody. Than...k yall so much for supporting me and my son on this journey and fighting for us when it really counted! God bless!

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 note...s 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.

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 o...r 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.

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 a...nd 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.
