Child custody

After my third lawyer I was told my case was a lost cause no matter what. Cynthia changed all that. She was very brutally honest with me while at the same time answering all , yes ALL of my questions no matter how silly they seemed. I followed her advice and right up to the last minute I was still s...cared to death however she has succeeded in getting my ball rolling and visitation with my children! Something after three years I was seriously thinking wasn't going to happen. She is very professional and friendly and very knowledgeable in her field of expertise. As I was extremely nervous there was a decision that needed to be made and she asked me to just "hold off" and trust her, it worked and I am so glad I put my trust in this firm and Cynthia Chaing! Highly recommended!

Helped master a peaceful resolution to a family in need

Our situation was all too familiar in this era. A daughter in an abusive relationship and a toddler granddaughter living in a dangerous home. With the help of Mrs Chaing and a dedicated social worker we were able to gain custody of our granddaughter and provide her a safe stable home. Mrs Chaings kno...wledge of law, and compassion for the innocent child, provided the crucial link that we needed to bring our granddaughter out of danger and into a loving nurturing home. My daughter has, for several years now, moved beyond the bad relationship and has since been supportive of our custody. Our granddaughter is now 10 years old and has blossomed into an outgoing, intelligent and well rounded happy child. Her mother is now heavily involved in her life and is now in a long term wonderful relationship herself. We are a happy family and it would not have been possible without the compassion, expertise and guidance of Mrs Chaing. We hold her in the highest regard and owe her a debt of gratitude. We know now that we will eventually relinquish custody back to her mother and have no issues that will prevent it. Mrs Chaing helped us through the darkest time in our family life and I would recommend her to anyone that wants the best outcome for a child in a difficult situation. Not only is she a great family law attorney but she is also a great person to know. On a scale of 1 to 10 we would rate her at 14.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
