Solid attorney

Jonathan did a great job for me in my custody trial. He definitely knew what actions he needed to take and when the best opportunity was to put them in place. Very knowledgeable and attentive. Would highly recommend him to anyone in the same situation.

STRONG, DEPENDABLE, THE BEST LAWYER

Jonathan Corey has helped me through one of the most difficult time in my life- A Divorce. His communication and work ethic is top notch. He has fought for me and my child througout the whole process. He is very knowledgeable and dependable, especially with answering legal questions pertaining to the... case. I would recommend him to anyone who is going through a divorce. He is the Best lawyer I have met.

Very helpful and easy to work with

Mr. Corey was a great resource in my divorce. He provided great advice and coaching through the difficult and arduaous process. Jonathan was on point during the negotiations and now, three years later, is always quick to return a call/email on follow up questions and ongoing case maintenance.

Excellent Lawyer highly recommended

Our families experience was excellent!! Jonathan was straight forward from the beginning explaining to us from his previous experiences what to expect and not to expect when petitioning parenting time and custody. He was really easy to work with and great at explaining legal jargon, court terms and ...or court documents. Jonathan was always respectful and always thought about our interest. I will definitely work with Jonathan again and HIGHLY recommend him to anyone that is in need of legal counseling.

Parenting plan and child support

I was given Mr. Corey's name by a friend whom is a lawyer for equine law and she highly recommended him for family law. When I met him he was professional and very factual and upfront and honest. Mr. Corey assisted me first with updating an old parenting plan to protect my kids best interest and su...pport their activities in August of 2014. Then when my ex decided to fight state update in child support in the beginning of 2015, I once again contact Mr. Corey and hired him for the child support case. He was very honest and up front, he tried to save me from the expense and tried to work with my ex's lawyers. He explained to them and myself that this whole case was only harming us more and we needed to get through it as soon as possible. He always listened to my concerns and addressed my questions. Mr Corey was great to work with even over the distance as I am located over 7 hours from his office. When we had the hearing Mr. Corey prepared me by explaining to me what would happen and what to expect. He helped me in knowing what they would be looking for and needing to know, he helped me gather my thoughts and not to be emotional but factually. He always defended me, my rural community ranching lifestyle and me as a mother. Mr Corey always listened to the facts and was up front and honest and truly a caring lawyer and I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of or needing an attorney for family law. Jonathan Corey is truthful and honest and very knowledgeable.
