I got frustrated when I called the office to inquire about my retainer after two months and was forward over to my lawyer and charged $109 dollars for asking about my retainer after 60days of silence. They are good but expensive, which goes hand in hand but I’m starting to get the feeling that I’m being frivolously charged to get as much out of me and my family possible before reimbursing retainer. And when I called to clarify instead of checking out the facts the person basically concluded that I owed the money because it’s in the system. I still haven’t been reimbursed...

Don't bother wasting your time calling this Law Firm they charge $125 just to give you a price on retaining them for your divorce go elsewhere

The legal team at the Cordell & Cordell Albany office is nothing short of amazing. They are professional, experienced, honest and dedicated just for starters. They are the people you can trust when your whole world is crumbling around you and your family has become a battleground. When you have no where else to turn and no more solutions to try, you need the help of the Cordell team. I am very thankful for how they took care of more than just the legal case, but coached me on how to survive as a man and father. Please keep up the good work, men need a champion in our corner because the system is so stacked against us.

Asa and the Cordell & Cordell team have had such a positive impact on my life! I am happy once again! Asa Neff and the staff were always positive, professional, and super-efficient in their jobs. Constant communication and updates always occurred; anytime I reached out by email or phone with questions about my divorce, I always received a response the same day. The key “trait” that I most appreciated was Asa’s strength of character. He was a strong, confident, and stable force that I could reply on during a chaotic and turbulent divorce of my toxic ex-wife. Asa was very knowledgeable, answered all my questions, and guided me with such conviction during the process that I always felt secure. I felt taken care of. I felt I was in good hands with a competent team at times behind me, and at other times, leading me. And although I felt fear during most steps of the process, as soon as I met with Asa or the team, the confidence and competence they all exuded completely put my fears to rest. My divorce was difficult to navigate; I am sure every man says that! But Asa Neff and the Cordell & Cordell team managed the process seamlessly. I am a happy man now, and would highly recommend this team to help you through this unfortunate (well… joyous for me) process!

The attorneys at Powers and Santola are beyond exceptional. They are professional, dedicated, and compassionate. They checked in with us regularly and always made us feel supported during a time that was very overwhelming and stressful. We cannot recommend them enough and will forever be grateful to them for the time and dedication they put into our case.

I'm very happy with my experience with Daniel Santola, of Powers & Santola. The whole team was great about keeping in touch, letting me know exactly what was going on with my case. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone in the area.

I would have been better off lighting 6k on fire honestly I would have, we never got on the same page they always wanted to do what was good for them for future negotiations in court and never listened to a word from me, every conversation was a rehash of the last conversation and I was never allowed to finish my points. I would go in to court with them feeling as if I had to fight my lawyer the law Gaurdian and her lawyer.

Do not hire this firm. Do not hire them specifically for father's rights, or because of their ads about assisting men, men in the military, or any upper hand you believe you will receive from their advertising. Which, I may add, is everywhere. I sought them out for the purpose they advertise, dad's help. I was promised my best interests would be regarded, and told I had a bullet proof case. Piles and piles of evidence, with expert evaluation and testimony by the expert. I could have hired a 3 year old and received better results. As a man, in a divorce, expect to spend money anywhere you go. As much as they charged to lose my case, they should be embarrassed. The attorney I had was out looking for a new job and never informed me. She was gone after being notified my case was lost. Not one phone call. She was not prepared for trial, I was not able to change attorneys. Get references, and hire someone that listens to you and has a good record.

I highly recommend the legal team at Powers & Santola. I was able to concentrate on my health and the legal team took care of the law suit. I was always able to get answers to my questions and was kept informed of the status. The outcome exceeded my expectations. Thank you and congratulations to the Powers and Santola team
