I recently went through a divorce and changed from a previous lawyer to Ms Deborah Sheppard of Cordell & Cordell (Frederick MD). I was extremely satisfied with Ms Shepherd. She was professional, she was personable, she was prompt with her updates, and she worked very well with the opposing counsel.
We worked very well together and after closing my account I will actually miss dealing with Ms Shepherd.
Kristen Lindquist was the paralegal with whom I dealt. She was also excellent, prompt, and personable.

Debra at Cordell & Cordell provided a very professional and understanding approach to my domestic matter. She gave sound advice founded in law, and also highlighted important items to consider during the process. I would recommend her to anyone facing a domestic issue requiring legal resolution.

After two disappointing family law attorneys, Debra Sheppard, Esq. from.Cordell & Cordell delivered the outcome I hoped & more: 50/50 custody (despite my ex's fight), ZERO child support, & an ironclad agreement that protects me from her violations. They settled my case in 90 days, kept costs in line, & provided a phenomenal support system through their online portal & dedicated account manager. If you're facing divorce, I highly recommend working with Cordell & Cordell - they're worth every penny.

Deb Shephard did a superb job representing me in my divorce! She cleared through the clutter and noise of the legal process very efficiently and had very wise counsel along the way. I would highly recommend her for your legal representation should you need a divorce lawyer.

I am so relief when my litigations were over. Thank God!! Finally, my prayer was answered. Ms. Sheppard is one of the best attorneys I ever encountered. I hired three from Rockville area since 2013. As far as I am concern, she met the code of honor of SERVICE, INTEGRITY & EXCELLENCE (US AIR FORCE). She even anticipated the outcome. Although I still have to pay my arears, but indefinite alimony is terminated. As a minority in this country, I finally connected to what the Dr. MLK said, "We are free at last".

I have been working with Debra Shepperd in the Frederick office and I cannot recommend Debra highly enough. She was not only professional throughout but she was cordial, understanding and helped me keep my head on straight when necessary. If you are in need of a rock solid attorney to handle your divorce proceedings in the Maryland area, you need to contact Cordell & Cordell and request Debra Shepperd. She will take the best care of you.

Went through a 2 year battle just to lose everything... over 20k dollars and I still get Nickle and dimed to the very end.. 405$ an hour... for what.... to have to provide all my own documents and get forced to pay additional legal fees...Your better off to pay someone else. The firm doesn't care about you or helping you, just money and if it's in your trust they will spend every penny!! Cordell and Cordell... I will say that my Attorney tried his best and was really professional but the experience with cordell and cordell administration personnel was not pleasant.

I am writing to recommend Attorney Deborah Sheppard and Cordell & Cordell for anyone divorcing. I got introduced to Attorney Sheppard after going through two other attorneys who were unable to move my case to a conclusion. Attorney Sheppard taught me to focus on the big picture, push back on the opposing side's slew of motions, and negotiate to reach all the goals I set out in the case. I highly recommend Attorney Sheppard and Cordell & Cordell to any father who needs an advocate for custody and property settlement. I would have saved so much time and money if I had engaged Cordell & Cordell from the outset of my case.
Attorney Sheppard and her team were always friendly and professional, making me feel I was in good hands. They were always available to answer my questions and update me on my case.
Thank you, Attorney Sheppard and Cordell & Cordell, for helping me through a difficult time.

If I could rate a 0 I would. They don’t care about your case here at Cordell and Cordell, but about your money. They will nickel and dime you your whole case. They don’t listen to the client. Will ask you the same question through email just to charge you $30-70 per email. Would not recommend using unless you have thousands and thousands of dollars you want to waste on little stuff that doesn’t really affect your case.

Whatever you do don't use Cordell and Cordell. Nickel and dime you to death. All they care about is money. . I finished with them and had a 3000.00 bill after paying them multiple thousands of dollars I wanted to make payments. I made a reasonable offer to honorably pay my bill which they would not except. I wanted to pay 150.00 a month till I get settled in my new life. They could care less and threatened me with collections. They are rude. I am calling the better business bureau to make a complaint. If I could of given a zero star I would of

Chelsea is incredible at her job and I can't imagine a scenario she's unable to handle. She guided me through one of the most difficult things I've ever gone through and continues to assist when I need advice. She provided counsel with true professionalism and always knew how and when to save me from myself. I highly recommend C&C and highly recommend choosing Chelsea for representation.
