personal experience 10/10, Michaels attentiveness is one of the [many] attributes I wanna shed light on. With that, his communication is above par - he WILL reach you. If you need an attorney please look into Michael Viscosi! Most of all it’s his calming demeanor, he’s knowledgeable, yet speaks to persons in an easy approach simplifying anything you might not understand which is important if [like me] you don’t practice law!!

This was my first time retaining Ms. Ross as my attorney. I am very satisfied with her work. We had everything taken care of without even needing to set foot inside the court room. I would recommend her to anybody with family legal issues.

I have hired Ellen Ross several times to represent me. She is highly professional and takes her clients representation seriously. Ellen makes sure she gets all of the information she needs before presenting her case and goes above and beyond for her clients. I would always refer my friends and family to Ellen; because I know she will do her best to represent them.

He listens and understanding to all the issues that you are concerned with. He shows compassion. Unlike many other Lawyers that only care about themselves this lawyer definitely showed compassion and understanding of what I've been put through.

Robert Subik was my boyfriend's son's law guardian. He was very pro father's rights, and saw right through all of the lies the child's mother tells. Unfortunately he went into the hospital before our final trial (or at least that's what we were told). We hope he is doing well.

Bradley literally admitted he didn't know how to handle my case. That should have been my wake up call to fire Cordell & Cordell. I think he was literally fresh out of school, so in all fairness, if he's gotten some experience at a good firm, he might become a good lawyer, but I'd steer clear.
