"I endorse this lawyer's work. My practice for years included practice in the field of family law and divorce. About 8 years ago I gave up practicing in the field of family law and divorce and because of the requests for referrals from my clients and others I searched out an attorney I felt I could refer people to. Cornelis is an expert in her field. She is intelligent, experienced, dedicated and devoted to representing her clients. I have referred to her over the past seven years plus numerous clients and prospective new clients who have inquired about a referral to a family law, divorce, custody, and or an adoption attorney to Cornelia Clark. I have not had one person I've referred to her report anything negative about her handling their matter. I refer people to her with the confidence that they will be represent extremely well."
