About Robert Hanks, Senior Litigation Attorney

Clearfield divorce attorney Robert Hanks is passionate about helping people. That is why a career in family law is ideal for him as he can assist individuals through one of life’s toughest challenges.

“My experience representing DCFS, ORS, and the state of Utah give me unique insight into family law cases where many of these issues cross over,” Mr. Hanks said. “I am able to give my clients guidance and help that many other attorneys are not able to offer.”

Mr. Hanks can analyze complex fact patters and can identify the legal issues that are sometimes obscured by chaos. His focus throughout the entire process is on maintaining sound strategy.

“Litigation is similar to chess in that in order to be successful, an attorney needs the ability to think several moves ahead to plan a winning strategy,” he said. “Like chess, you will lose some pieces or certain battles along the way, but that those isolated losses can and will be used to win in the end.”

Reviews from Our Past Clients
“Wow, there’s so much I have to say about Cordell & Cordell. I walked in with tears in my eyes hopeless because everything was taken a way from me. Father of 7 children that was told there’s no hope for the fathers now days. Cordell & Cordell welcomed me in their hands and proved everyone wrong. They were there for me and my children until the end.”
– Izet K.
“It took years for me to come to a decision to end my marriage. I sought a law firm that is focused and prepared for trial if need be, and seeks to give me the best outcome possible. Cordell and Cordell has performed very well and is very supportive during this difficult time. I have full confidence in my representation and recommend them.”
– Mason B.
“Cordell & Cordell has been really helpful in all my divorce and custody-related needs, even when I have been struggling to make ends meet, they remained communicative regarding my account. I am very grateful to have had such amazing representation in the most important court case of my life! Thank you!”
– Amanda H
“Divorce is hard enough without trying to find a Lawyer who will truly work for you. I had several conversations with Lawyers that seemed only interested in winning somehow. No one wins in a divorce. I should have went to Cordell & Cordell first so I would have avoided a lot of headaches. I met a group of people that genuinely care for you.”
– Mark L.
