Client Testimonials
Excellent Advice
When opposing counsel attacked some of the facts he was quick to stand up and be firm with the other lawyer! This is someone you want to use, he will not sit there and tell you what you want to hear, but tell you the truth and not give you false hope.

Informational
Wayne and Cort have been amazing through our custody case. They have always kept us informed and also helped us to see the whole picture. They have given us more guidance in a short period of time than our previous lawyer did in 3 years.

Allowed Me to Focus on Healing
