Ryan J. Stanger

I was represented by Douglas Anderson and Ryan Stanger of Cordell & Cordell, Clearfield Utah branch. I spent over $20,000.00 in 4 months and lost physical and legal custody of my son and have no visitation. I could not possibly have done worse if I represented myself. These inexperienced attorneys to...ld me I could go to jail for swearing at my ex-wife. In retrospect it all seems preposterous and it was. If you have a complex family law case, do not go anywhere near the Cordell office. These guys have absolutely no idea what they are doing. They may have passed the bar, but they have no practical experience and opposing counsel tore them apart. Everything they did was last minute and defensive. They never seemed to be able to strategize or think proactively. And they have no guts for court. Mediation was a joke. Ryan Stanger attended at $250.00 per hour, but did nothing on my behalf. He just cracked jokes and seemed to enjoy himself. Meanwhile, opposing counsel called all the shots and the mediator (also at $250.00 per hour) went along for the ride. I spent $2,500.00 on that one day alone and achieved zero. I took my case to another attorney and he was appalled. He called what they did malpractice. I am now working with him (spending more money) to regain what I lost. I trusted Cordell & Cordell of Clearfield Utah and they let me down. Don’t let it happen to you.
