#223651. Cordell & Cordell - Representing Men and Fathers during Divorce, Child Custody, Child Support, and Paternity Cases - Home
Cordell & Cordell was founded in 1990 by Joseph Cordell, J.D. as a general practice firm focusing on domestic relations matters. With men representing approximately 90% of our clientele, we have evolved into one of the largest domestic relations firms for men in the Midwest.
Men who come to Cordell & Cordell know that their interests and the interests of their children will be aggressively championed. Too often lawyers and even judges have resigned themselves to stereotypes and a perpetuation of the status quo. We are not suggesting this mentality is malicious or even conscious, but it is prevalent.
Exacerbating things further are influental organizations outside the mainstream of society and their insistence on women's interests to the utter exclusion of the merits of a given case. The result is that the judicial system - lawyers, judges, social workers and the administration - is prone to assume without proof that moms should be the primary custodial parents, that men accused of abuse are guilty of abuse, and conversely, that men alleging abuse are lying or overreacting, that women are not as capable of generating income as men are, and that a man is less deserving of assets earned by a woman than when the reverse circumstances exist.
Naturally, no law firm can completely rectify these deep-seated multifaceted injustices. We do not promise our clients transcendent justice. All we can promise our clients is their best shot. With an emphasis on fathers' rights, we at Cordell & Cordell focus on acheiving practical results. We have cultivated a reputation for challenging fallacious assumptions, for calling the court's attention to inequalities, to advancing without equivocation bold arguments from which other attorneys might shrink. While such positions occasionally cause conflict, they nonetheless engender respect and encourage, we believe, more reasonable positions from the Court as well as from the other side.
We currently practice in Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, Indiana, Georgia, Colorado and Texas. If your case will be heard outside of this area, there is a possiblity of representation on a \\\\\\\\"pro hac vice\\\\\\\\" basis.
