How Attorney Cornick Got Started
Before attending law school, he worked at a law firm, delivering paperwork
to other offices and researching title for real estate transactions. The
work was not very exciting.
One of the attorneys took on a case defending a client on a charge of
robbery from a motel. The firm was not one that typically took on criminal cases,
but for some reason they took this client's. Attorney Cornick was
intrigued and convinced his boss to let him work the case.
During the investigation, he worked hard to find and interview potential
witnesses, serve subpoenas, and discuss the defense as he developed it.
IHE watched the trial and was hooked from there. He never wanted to do
anything other than try cases in court.
Almost without exception, the attorneys at that firm told Attorney Cornick
it would be impossible to sustain a practice doing nothing but criminal
defense. Attorney Cornick was happy to have blown that pessimism out of
the water.
- I always strive to provide the representation you or your loved one needs,
