I couldn't be happier or more satisfied with the legal help I've received from Cordell & Cordell. My attorney, Jake Cowdin, has done an absolutely phenomenal job, as has his paralegal, Tiffany. Mindy, the office administrator has always been willing to help and available when I've reached out to the office. After my very first consultation meeting with the office's supervising attorney, Doug, I had a feeling that I was going to be in good and quite capable hands. I did not expect, however, that Jake would so vastly exceed what were high expectations after that first meeting. It has become very clear that Jake's primary concern was doing what he and I thought would be best for myself and my son. I've always assumed that attorneys would do what they could to bill for as many hours as possible while helping their clients. This may or may not be the case with other lawyers, but it certainly is not true when it comes to Jake. He has been extremely professional. It's obvious that he took the time to fully consider what he ended up advising and weighed what the risks and benefits of any proposed course of action might be. I always felt like I had a voice in what each decision was and that Jake had my thoughts and concerns in mind during our interactions. He also very steadily helped to reign me in and provided me with a moment of pause a few times when I became overt emotional, which can easily happen in matters concerning your child. There is no doubt whatsoever that Jake, as well as Cordell & Cordell, will be the first and only I will ever make should a situation with my son and his mother requiring legal assistance ever come up again. I honestly feel that representation by anyone else would not be to the level Jake has provided. I would strongly encourage and recommend both Jake and Cordell & Cordell to anyone going through divorce or custody issues and looking for legal assistance. read more

I had heard the horror stories of men getting the short end of the stick in the Utah Legal System. I didn't want that to happen so I decided to hire the best lawyer I could find. Jacob Cowdin exceeded my expectations and helped me to secure a desirable custody arrangement with my daughter (which was the most important factor for me). He kept me from making some major mistakes that could have jeopardized my case and helped me to navigate civil productive conversations with my unfaithful ex. He helped me see the legal repercussions my potential actions and guided me to make better choices for myself and my daughter. He always gave me options and allowed me to make the choices that directed the case, which I appreciated. He was attentive and most importantly...he always called me back in a timely manner. I felt like he was heavily invested in the outcome of my case and truly cared about me and my rights as a father. I would use no other Lawyer and I refer him to all my closest friends that have gone through or are contemplating divorce or filing custody cases. Divorce is hard enough. HIRE JACOB! You won't be disappointed! His office assistant (Mindy) was awesome as well. She was always friendly and helpful. They made it easy as divorce can be for me. Highly Recommend them. read more

Hiring a law firm isn't always good news and in today's market there are a lot of options. I did some research and did a few consultations. Everyone will tell you, that you have a strong case upfront. I settled with Cordell Law for a couple reasons. One, the Laywer was open and honest and talked about the reality of the outcome based on Utah law and evidence. He didn't say I would get everything I was asking for, which was actuall comforting because it didn't feel like he was chasing a payday, and I didn't have false expectations . Second reason was the customer service with all people I spoke to, specifically Mindy. She was welcoming and answered all my questions. She was also a big reason I chose this firm. Customer service is big to me. I will definitely recommend and continue to work with Cordell Law in the future. If you are looking, give Mindy a call and she can help you get the process started. read more

Before you even think about calling this overpriced and preposterous company, do your research on the internet. I know the advertising is great, but it is all phony. They have no clue and do not care about any fathers rights. Cordell and Cordell and all the associates are hungry for your cash! They sucked my $9000 in less than 4 months with little to no resolution. They have every kind of hidden fee available for you. 1 minute phone calls, 1 sentence texts, and even 1 sentence emails all have an outrageous fee! To even top that off they send you a monthly progress report that they charge you $75. The whole process and representation was a joke. I even tried to work things out with the billing department and they pretty much told me too bad and thanks for your generous donation. read more

Jake Cowdin is my attorney and has been amazing. He's helped me fight for what was deserved and although this firm is known for fathers rights that is not all they can help with. I wouldn't trust anyone else in helping me with any legal matter. His staff Tiffany and Mindy have also been phenomenal to work with. Tiffany is always right on the ball with case correspondences and things that need addressed right away. Mindy is also so sweet and kind to everyone that walks through the door. She is defiantly the smile everyone needs to see when having a bad day. I can't Thank their office enough. Thanks Jake, Tiffany and Mindy read more

Jacob Arijanto is a mad genius. The outcome in our hearing for temporary orders was exactly what I wanted and that hardly ever happens. If you need someone you can trust to get you the best possible deal in a divorce case, Jacob is your guy. Mindy and Tiffany have been amazing to work with. Super friendly people, not what I expected at all dealing with a law office. Their comms are professional, but they are very personable and empathetic. Divorce sucks, no matter how you look at it, but these ladies are very thorough and have guided me through this process in a friendly and courteous way. Can't thank you guys enough! read more

Had a surprise PO delivered to me when the ex took my kid and vanished for 13 days. She wanted to use the "ex parte" PO to get full custody. Robert Hanks was able to take the case, We got my daughter back on our first court appearance. He then helped me get the PO dismissed, set up Mediation for Custody AND we got a custody agreement - signed, sealed and delivered - all in about a month! His professionalism, Calmness with my impatience, knowledge of the Utah courts and willingness to take me on literally short-notice was nothing less than Amazing. Thank you sir! read more

After going through a very one sided and difficult divorce, I was given the name of Jake Cowdin to review my case and determine if there was anything I could do. Jake and his office staff Tiffany, and Mindy Nielson, have made this process very seemless. Jake and his staff have been very concerned about my case as well as being very personable yet professional in their positions. I would highly recommend Jake and his staff to represent anyone manuevering the difficult waters of divorce. read more

I have been working with Doug Anderson for my divorce and post divorce issues and he has been great. He is responsive, professional, organized and very well spoken with a great presence in the court room. He also lets me know if he feels I'm unreasonable and we talk through things and come up with a strategy to achieve my desired outcome. Mindy in the office is helpful and their automatic billing makes things so easy. I would recommend Doug for anyone going through a divorce. read more

If I can give it a zero I would. Cordell & Cordell are a bunch of liars and they will drain your bank account. They are still taking money from my account even though I canceled the services. They take advantage of you. They feed you a bunch of lies. PLEASE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Cordell & Cordell is not here to help you. I was represented by Eric Limegrover (COLORADO) but I can assure you that everyone in this office (CORDELL & CORDELL) will steal your money. read more

Since I've been working With Cordell and Cordell, I couldn't be more pleased! Mindy at the front desk, knows me by name, she's extremely friendly and professional at her job.

This is the team I would definitely recommend if you need the best representation.. John read more
