Annette Cox Sandoval

Annette Cox helped me obtain my legal parenting rights in a same sex legal battle. She is an excellent litagator and fought hard to help use the law to protect my rights in unfamiliar territory. I am so grateful to her and proud that my case was able to establish some necessary groundwork in this community. Thank you, Annette!!!!

Annette helped my daughter with her DCS case. My daughter is in recovery and was referred to DCS when she had her baby. Annette was so knowledgeable about the system and provided calm, non-judgmental and professional support and advise throughout the nearly 1 year ordeal. She was always prepared for each court date and also assisted with the final disposition including the custody determination. I feel like Annette truly cared about my daughter and granddaughter and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing legal help.

Annette and her team were very cooperative, driven with my goals in mind, extremely knowledgeable, always kept me in the loop and we're always forward and honest. They gave me guidance to follow, do's, don'ts and we're available anytime that I needed them. I cannot thank them enough for the time and effort they put in to make my case correct and resolute. I was dealing with a divorce, child care, child support and I thought I was never going to be able to get anywhere until Anette was referred to me. I truly felt for the first time that I had someone on my side and was able to correct my case lawfully.

I've had experience with other attorneys and Annette Cox is the best attorney I could have chosen. Ms. Cox is caring, listens to your concerns and works hard to represent you and your family. She takes into consideration all the aspects of your case. Ms. Cox is honest and straight to the point. She is not an attorney that will tell you "just what you want to hear". Ms. Cox will give you a fair and accurate picture of your case and what to expect. Ms. Cox is knowledgeable, dedicated and thorough. She's an excellent female attorney and I strongly recommend her to all my friends and family.

Annette and Team were hired for dissolution of marriage. This bad situation was made better by Annette and team. I always felt the case was moving forward, and felt everything was done correct. And it was, Thank you very much. I will return if I ever need consolation again.

She was wonderful. She fought so hard to bring my kids home for me. I would definitely use her again and I'm more than likely going to soon when I get money saved up. She fights hard for your case. I'm glad I found her and hired her. She gave me hope when I didn't have any at all.

Annette has helped me retrieve joint custody and have my children back in my life. She is amazing at everything she does and works hard at everything she does. She knows how to represent definitely. -V.A.

Prior to finding Annette I had represented myself, worked with five other attorneys-- two in California and three in Phoenix-- and accrued some $30, 000 in attorneys' fees. Annette was by far the best, most knowledgeable attorney I worked with during my family court struggle. She gave me sound advice and representation that ultimately lead to the resolution I had been praying for for years. I will be forever grateful to her for the peace of mind my teenage son and I now have thanks to her excellent guidance and work in and out of the courtroom. I highly recommend Annette Cox.

Annette Cox is a phenomenal attorney. She is smart, savvy, resourceful, strategic, experienced, analytical, organized, competent, and professional. Everything you would want in a lawyer. Annette was my defense attorney in a difficult case against CPS for almost a year. CPS made a bunch of exaggerated, rash, base-less, inferring, and trumped-up allegations and went straight for severance of our parental rights. Not many attorneys even take CPS cases (also known as JD or JS cases), but not only did she take the case, but we won forcing the state to dismiss the case, thus getting full custody of our child back. It’s a fact of life that lawyers are expensive, and Annette’s fees are average with most other attorneys in Phoenix, but it is like the old saying goes, “you get what you pay for.” In my opinion Annette was worth every penny, because the result was getting my child back from the clutches of CPS, and what price can you put on that? Through our entire battle with CPS Annette always kept focused on the objective and stayed on point forcing CPS to take responsibility for their actions and inactions. In court she was aggressive, straight forward, concise, and represented me in the most accurate and professional way possible. Annette genuinely listened to our concerns without judgment, answered our questions effectively, and was good counsel. Annette has helped our family by fighting and winning against the State when initially our case looked grim. I’m not saying Annette is a miracle worker who will win every case, and if Annette can’t win your case, you can rest assured that you did everything possible you could to win, and at least that will give you some solace. No offense to court appointed attorneys, but it you want someone who actually cares and devotes time and energy into you, your case, and your family, and you care about the results of your case you should do everything in your power to solicit the services of Annette Cox.

although i did not retain ms cox, i did have a consult with her regarding the return of my children, i would have done whatever i could pay her fee, because i knew very quickly that she was very knoweledgeable about working with CPS, and how the process worked. But Ms Cox declined to accept me, but she equipped me with the knowledge i needed to have my kids returned from cps. She told me exactly what to say to get my court appointed attorney to get in a gear and do her job. She cared about my kids not about the money, and I am forever grateful to her for that. I tell everyone i know about her who is need of a family attorney!!!

She is not only excellent professionally but on a personal level, compassionate, patient, very organized and truly motivated not primarily by money ( as some others in this profession are) but by her clients problems. She made the whole process so much more tolerable!

Annette Cox is a Super Lawyer I mean that she is able to get in there and do the job. From start to end and keep you up to date on every thing. I feel so blessed to have Annette on my team.

I very much appreciate all of the hard work that Annette Cox has put into my divorce/child custody case. She is smart, responsible, accurate, and trustworthy. She has always gone above and beyond with my case and she is extremely professional. I highly recommend Annette Cox to anyone who is going through a tough time like I was. She will always treat you with dignity and she is very responsive. Thank you Annette Cox!

Annette was referred to me by a reputable criminal attorney. I was very apprehensive initially because I have been jacked around in the Maricopa Family Court for the last 8years and had hired 4 different attorney over the course of those years! I found that most attorneys are uninterested in you and your family and only care about their next invoice being paid. One attorney had even admitted to being a habitual dope user. Dealing with a vengeful ex-husband who makes about 4 times what I do, I found myself broke and desperate for a good attorney who actually returned calls, emails and worked hard on my case! Thats when i found Annette! She was very responsive to my questions, concerns, emails, and phone calls. I was impressed because i even got return texts from her at 10pm, well after her office had closed. Additionally, Annette was extremely knowledgeable and was able to strategize my case which ultimately won me custody and parenting time. During my custody trial, several of my divorced friends who have gone through similar experinces with child custody attended amy trial and were very impressed how Annette was so composed, quick and witty with her questions and bringing out facts relevant to my case. Since Annette has successfully completed my case, I have referred her to a number of other people who are also impressed with her as an attorney! Before you consult with any other attorney, save yourself the time and energy by contacting Annette!

Annette Cox has been very reliable, helpful, and knowledgeable throughout my case. I am in a state outside of AZ, which I thought would make this a difficult process. Annette made sure that it was not. She fought aggressively to have physical custody of both my children awarded to me, which required relocation of the kids to my state (not an easy task for a father to accomplish). In the end, Annette Cox did indeed succeed, and I was awarded physical custody of both kids. She has been incredibly helpful, and understanding throughout the process, and I will continue to work with her in any family law situation that may arise. I would highly recommend Ms. Cox to anyone in need of family law representation.
