Posted by Robert | August 12, 2013 | Business

Former client from California

Mr. Vorndran in conjunction with Cecil Morris of Pendleton Wilson Hennessey & Crow, PC in Denver Colorado represented me and my wife in a case with a couple of past business partners located in Colorado. After nine months of intense document review, case preparation, interfacing with opposing counse...l and much personal counseling Paul was successful in obtaining an "Order Granting Motion for Summary Judgement" a hundred percent in our favor. He was also successful in obtaining a sizable settlement backed by a promissory note in our favor. Mr. Vorndran along with Mr. Morris re-instilled my faith in the law and what was right. Mr. Vorndran was very professional, quickly became knowledgable with the facts of the case (a lot of contractual and document review), and associated the law and similar cases in order to give us a favorable outcome. He also made great use of the human factor in an attempt to relive some of our stress. This was our first time and hopefully our last time being subjected to something of this nature.
