I came to Mr Cordes with a very unusual employment problem. I had been to several other lawyers first and none of them said I had a case. Mr Cordes not only saw a case but he convinced a judge that we were right. I loved how my employer hired a bunch of Harvard lawyers and they lost one thing after another with the judge. The case finally settled for a fair amount. I would never go to anyone else with an employment problem. I can't use my name because the settlement was confidential but my my initials are JD.

I met Mr. Cordes and had been to other lawyers who said they could not help me. Mr. Cordes listened to what I was saying, and was able to give me answers and then ultimately secure an extremely high settlement--not only was the settlement more than I expected, but working with Mr. Cordes made my bad situation a lot less stressful. I would highly recommend him.

Sam is a thoroughly knowledgeable, diligent attorney who represented me superbly well as plaintiff in a civil action against my former employer . . . whose position may be summarized basically as "stonewall"
. . . and negotiated a favorable settlement in compensation of my rights.
While I would be pleased to provide my name in this glowing recommendation, part of the settlement (in terms insisted upon by the defendant) includes a prohibition against disclosures concerning the suit.

I contacted Attorney Cordes to represent me in a "Failure to Hire" discrimination case against a major retailer. I was told by others I definitely had a case and was entitled to a settlement. After contacting Attorney Cordes, and explaining my case, he informed me that he felt my case was worth substantially more than what I was originally told. Attorney Cordes was right!
Working with Attorney Cordes and his law firm was nothing but a pleasure.
Attorney Cordes was friendly, professional, and most importantly experienced. Attorney Cordes was always available to answer any questions I had. in fact, I emailed Attorney Cordes a question about my case on a Sunday evening, and he responded within minutes with an answer. If I did not understand something, he took the time to explain it to me. I would highly recommend Attorney Samuel Cordes!

Sam Cordes is an excellent lawyer to work with in that he is passionate, thorough, and is always thinking ahead. Being subjected to the judicial system with my divorce and seeing the enormous stress and the possible dishonest tactics from the opponent, I knew the qualities mentioned were a must! Sam has a rye sense of humor and will keep you on your toes, which is a good thing. I tend to be on the timid side and had to adjust, but didn't mind because deep down knew Sam was the right lawyer for my discrimination case. I was kept abreast of what to expect, especially when dealing with corporate lawyers and how they operate. My case was won and I received my back pay as well as returned to my position in the company. I am presently top in sales for the Pittsburgh area and need to thank Sam and his professional highly qualified staff for helping to make this possible.
When Sam was referred to me, he was referred to as the "Bull Dog".
Sam's passion for acquiring the truth, achieving his clients successful outcome, and his expertise is how he was awarded his well deserved nick name. If these are the qualities pursued, then Sam is your lawyer. Success is a great thing!
