About

Dorothy C. Wolbert believes that guiding a divorce or other family law case to its finality is just one aspect of her job. She also wants to show her clients how to overcome and move on from this difficult time.“To me, the appeal of family law is the ability to assist clients to overcome real-life struggles during an emotionally strenuous time in their lives,” Ms. Wolbert said. “I find a sense of contribution in offering support to these clients as they open another door.”She said she particularly enjoys when her custody cases end up with both able to spend a significant amount of time with their children with a schedule that works best for all parties.“I have a sincere passion for children, and I believe both parents are equally vital in the development of their children,” Ms. Wolbert said.

Excellent lawyer. Highly recommended. Please see below the letter that I sent following our case. It is from the heart. Dorothy, I wanted to take a moment to convey the absolute appreciation that I felt following the conclusion of the trial negations last week and conclusion of our case. Although following the events we were all overwhelmed with emotion, I felt it necessary to fully express our gratitude, albeit a few days later. During this very exhausting and emotionally consuming period for me and my family your knowledge, professionalism and dedication to our case truly maintained our faith and guided us to the light at the end of the tunnel. Throughout the duration of our case I felt as though we always continued on a positive path toward our initially discussed goals which I directly contribute to your efforts. Through every up, through every down and every step of that way, your research and efforts continued to set favorable conditions for the most positive outcome possible. In the words of my superior, you were beyond doubt, our “pro from Dover”. Coming from a business in which I change the lives of young Americans everyday, I understand that my case and it's outcome, while life changing for us, is the exact thing which you accomplish on a daily basis. My story, my situation, is no better, no worse, no more or less tragic than the numerous you have or will deal with in your successful career. It is, however, mine. And because of that I can, with out a doubt, say that you have closed a chapter of my life that is now behind us and allowed us to begin writing the next. You have changed our lives and most importantly the life of my son who will look back one day and be grateful for the opportunities that your work and efforts afforded him. We are humbled and grateful. Sincerely, Matt

Ms. Wolbert was very thorough and organized in her preparation for meetings and appearances while handling my case. Ms. Wolbert ensured that she was accessible to handle any issues that arose while the case moved forward. She provided a variety of contact methods and promptly responded to any and all messages. She also communicated any progress as it related to my divorce and requested additional information from me in a courteous and professional manner. Throughout the process, Ms. Wolbert has shown me that she is very knowledgeable about divorce proceedings in Pennsylvania and kept me informed of all of my options along the way. Cordell & Cordell should be proud of Ms. Wolbert as she is an excellent representative of the law firm.

I can't say enough good things about Attorney Wolbert. She helped me through a very tough divorce which could have been very devastating to me and my children if it wasn't for her outstanding competence and legal savvy. Attorney Wolbert was very well prepared and always there to promptly answer any questions or concerns I had. Her commitment to my case was exemplary and I could not ask for a more knowledgeable and persistent attorney. I would highly recommend her without hesitation.

Dorothy was my divorce attorney. I liked her since day one as she was very helpful, caring and always responsive. Anytime I had a question regarding my case, she always got back to me right away. Straightforward, not creating additional work just for billing purposes. I am very happy with having her as my attorney. Thanks

Ms. Dorothy did an excellent job helping me in my divorce. She advised me of PA laws for processing a divorce and advise me of my rights as a father. Ms. Dorothy was available by phone and through email beyond my expectations. Her knowledge and ability to look out for my well being as a father, allowed me to get a divorce from my ex-wife where things work in my favor. I would recommend Ms. Dorothy Wolbert to any of my family or friend going through a divorce. Thank you Dorothy for your service and know that people like you makes it easy to put my life on line as I continue to serve this great country of ours.

Dorothy is always on top of everything and explains things well to me.  I told her about my work schedule and she would always call me to accommodate that.  This experience has been like going through something with a best friend.
