After being in an adoption process for 2 years we were introduced to Vaughn and matched immediately. He we helpful in establishing communication between us and the birth mother and giving wisdom when needed. At the end of the process he helped us finalize with ease. He cares about his clients as well as the birth parents who are involved in the process.

After being on the adoption journey for two years we matched with a birth family and met Vaughn. His wisdom and demeanor gave us a lot of comfort in this “confusing and overwhelming” process. Vaughn was extremely helpful during the birth and the days when we were waiting to be able to leave. He made it quick and seamless in our eyes even though there was a lot going on to make it happen. Vaughn truly cares about all parties involved and seeks the best for them. We are so thankful to Vaughn for playing such a huge role in bringing our family together.

Thanks to Vaughn we were able to adopt our baby boy. He is currently, six years later, helping us adopt a baby girl. Dedicated and thorough. What you need in an adoption lawyer is knowledge, ethics, and follow through. He delivers.

We have used Vaughn twice for our adoptions in Arkansas. He’s incredibly trustworthy and is very adamant about advising to stay within the confines of the law. We never hesitate to recommend Vaughn to other folks looking into Marshallese adoptions because he’s done so many and is someone you can trust. Thank you again, Vaughn, for all your work.

We had a successful adoption thru cordes he was professional and caring highly recommend !!!!!

Vaughn helped us with the adoption of our baby girl. He is a very busy man, but he was always available to us when we needed his help. Highly recommend him.

I can not tell you how much we appreciated Vaughn -Michael H during our adoption process ! He answered all our questions throughout the process and was always available every step of the way. He made us feel at ease during the most stressful possible time. I cannot recommend him enough!

Our adoption was a little chaotic from the time we were matched, but Vaughn gave us peace and helped us navigate the obstacles. He kept us informed and answered our questions timely. He is knowledgeable and fair.

Vaughn Cordes handled the adoption of our son. He made the process very smooth and enjoyable.

Vaughn helped us adopt our beautiful daughter in February of 2022. Our situation was a little chaotic (for us) because she was born a month earlier than we anticipated, but Vaughn kept us calm through the whole process and made sure everything was ready for our finalization. He was very knowledgeable about the entire process and answered every question we had along the way

With the help of Mr. Cordes, my husband and I adopted a beautiful baby boy in May of 2021. We had so many questions and so many fears as we had already gone through a failed adoption a year prior while working with another attorney. Vaughn quietly yet confidently calmed all our fears. He was extremely knowledgeable and helped us with everything we needed. No question was too small. He always took time for us and responded quickly to any questions that we had. He was wonderful to work with. He helped tremendously in coordinating things with the hospital at the time of the birth - which wasn't easy given restrictions placed by COVID. He's even followed up with us since we have been home with our son. Our adoption was final just 10 days after our son's birth which is phenomenal! Overall, we can't say enough good things about Vaughn. If we choose to adopt again, we will definitely be contacting Vaughn. He was a joy to work with!

Does not answer the phone when you call 90% of the time. Does not keep his word....
