Trusting your inner gutt when hiring an attorney....

I hired Attorney Cynthia Hanley for my divorce because I felt she had the experience in helping me out of my lengthy 28 year marriage. She is highly skilled at listening and also at knowing the law procedure while took the time to understand my needs. She is articulate and remains focused, I felt... I could trust her handling my case. It was a difficult one, my husband was not willing to cooperate. She returned all my phone calls, and answered all my questions. I always felt that we were on the same page. I got the support I needed and the entire office was compassionate and professional.

Don't Underestimate the Importance of hiring an "Experienced" Divorce lawyer

Cynthia really helped me through a difficult process. She is very organized and kept me informed the entire process. Her 20+ years of experience is evident in her knowledge around specific divorce issues, understanding of the Judges / Court Personnel and her preperation for all matters related to ...the process.

Debra

I hired Attorney Hanley to represent me in my divorce. She was kind, professional and more importantly, very knowledgable. She made sure I understood each aspect of the financial settlement. She helped me work out a custody arrangment for my daughters that worked very well for our family. I have ...since referred family & friends to her. I trust her and was very pleased with the service I received during that difficult time.

EXCEPTIONAL ATTORNEY

Cynthia L. Hanley was very professional and helpful to me during a difficult time. She was always prepared for my many court appearances and presented my case well. She was available to answer questions anytime. She worked well with the opposing attorney to come to a fair division of assets. I hi...ghly recommend her.
