Keith Bruno, Personal injury Attorney on Nov 4, 2014
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Courtney is an amazing trial lawyer. Her ability to communicate a client's story to the jury and maximize verdicts is unsurpassed by any other lawyer of her generation. A true legal star.

Haytham Faraj, Criminal defense Attorney on Jul 30, 2012
Relationship: Friend

Courtney is a dear friend. I am, therefore, obviously slightly biased -perhaps a lot. Courtney is a dynamic, passionate, driven dedicated attorney. You can't go wrong with Courtney.

John Sloan, Personal injury Attorney on Oct 19, 2011
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Any person who has had the misfortune of suffering an injury caused by the negligence of another could not go wrong by hiring Courtney. She is smart, resourceful and committed. She is a tireless champion for those that she represents and a superb advocate in the courtroom. Most importantly, she is willing to and does take the time necessary to really know and understand her client's needs.

Paul Tyler, Criminal defense Attorney on Mar 26, 2011
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse this lawyer. Courtney is a great trial attorney. She has worked on criminal cases with me in the past that resulted in not guilty verdicts thanks to her.

Micah Belden, Criminal defense Attorney on Nov 29, 2009
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I endorse this lawyer's work. Courtney looks like a California girl but she is a tiger with her cases. We have worked together and I would trust her to help with any case I was doing in California or Texas, or anywhere else for that matter. She loves her job and loves her clients, so much so that she spent a month in Wyoming becoming a better trial lawyer under Gerry Spence in 2009.
