Local family law attorney receives OSBA certification

Published: April 26, 2017

CUYAHOGA FALLS––Attorney Corinne Hoover Six has been certified by the Ohio State Bar Association as a specialist in the area of Family Relations Law. This certification makes Hoover Six one of a small group of attorneys in Ohio, and one of only a handful in the Akron area, to have earned this distinction. 

"I am pleased to offer my clients this added expertise,” said Hoover Six. "I love what I do and enjoy helping clients through the complexities of family law in connection with my divorce, child custody and adoption practice."

Hoover Six is a third generation attorney and a partner at Hoover Kacyon, LLC, a legal partnership established in 2016, with her main office located on Portage Trail in Cuyahoga Falls in the same building where Hoover Six's father, grandfather and various other relatives practiced before her.

Prior to establishing Hoover Kacyon, LLC, Hoover Six was the managing attorney and owner of Hoover Six & Associates, LLC where she first began concentrating her practice on family law. 

Hoover Six earned her bachelor’s degree in history from Ohio University. She is a graduate of The University of Akron School of Law. She is a member of the Ohio State Bar Association and the Akron Bar Association, where she is a member of the family law section, a board member for the Akron Bar Foundation and a Foundation fellow.

Hoover Six is a published author on the topic of family law issues in public schools. She has been recognized as a National Trial Lawyers Top 100 and Top 40 under 40 and from the American Institute of Family Law Attorneys 10 Best, and from the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys Top 10. She resides in Silver Lake with her husband and three children. 

All attorneys licensed to practice law in the State of Ohio must have graduated from an accredited law school and passed an intensive examination.

In addition, they must attend continuing legal education courses as required by the Supreme Court of Ohio.

Attorneys like Hoover Six who devote a large part of their practice to a particular area of the law may choose to go beyond these requirements to earn specialty certification.

This means that they have demonstrated substantial and continuing involvement in a particular field of law; submit references from other lawyers attesting to their competency in the specialty area; attend intermediate or advanced continuing legal education course in their specialty area; remain in good standing with the Supreme Court of Ohio; maintain minimum professional liability insurance coverage, and passed a written examination in the specialty area.

Attorneys who earn a certification must be re-certified at least every four to seven years and must report annually to the certifying agency.
