Superb Service

Cynthia Chaing was everything a fantastic lawyer should be. During a very stressful time in my life, Mrs. Chaing and her team helped me through each step, explaining everything as we went, as well as what could potentially happen next. Though she was compassionate, calm and very insightful, she was a...lso fiercely professional in getting things accomplished for me. She checked in with me and went over information and decisions made to make sure I understood and was content. Mrs. Chaing is excellent at her job and seamlessly helped me navigate through all the legalities of the matter. I could not be more happy with the services I received from her and her team.

Amazing and Compassionate

I hired Cynthia Chaing for a custody case. Cynthia was professional, knowledgeable, caring, and kind. She was also fierce when she needed to be. Any question, concerns or inquiries I had were addressed right away. Talking with Cynthia about my case seemed like conversing with a friend, which helped ...relieve a lot of stress for me. Tammy Womack was amazing as well. Tammy was very helpful and responsive during all communications. Their ability to accommodate me living in another state was incredible. This team of power house women are highly recommended.

Dynamic and Detail Oriented!

Amazing experience! From the first meeting to our last encounter, Cynthia remained not only cool, calm, and collected, but also maintained a high level of professionalism. Every member of her team from Tammy to Lisa has done nothing but individually strive to do what is best for my divorce case. The...y all were not only extremely knowledgeable (even about military), but very responsive to any and all my questions with my case as well as being compassionate while explaining the technical and legal aspects of my situation. My well-being was definitely sought after and fought for tooth and nail on every occasion. Cynthia and her team were always patient and willing to explain everything down to the last detail. Provide her the information she wants and she takes care of the rest! Highly recommend!

Expert, Professional, and Supportive!

We were blown away by the expertise, professionalism, and overall support from Cynthia Chaing! We spoke with 4 different attorneys, retained 2 of the 4, before being referred to Cynthia. From the very first conversation we were already more informed on the road ahead then all of the previous attorney...s combined. Cynthia is extremely sharp and can pivot under pressure with unusual grace, which was needed in our cases. Overall, both of our matters were resolved and we were well prepared for unexpected scenarios that arose. We highly recommend Cynthia and the entire team at Shupert Chaing!

She’s the best!

Cynthia is great! I was referred to her by another client after my separation. I was nervous at first because I’ve never needed a lawyer before. After I sat with her for a consultation i knew she was the right person. So I hired her for child custody and visitation. She is very caring and very knowle...dgeable. She helped me every step of the way and made sure I understood everything before going in to court. She talked me though what to expect during mediation and I felt very prepared walking in. Needless to say she won my case and if I ever needed representation again I would definitely go back to her.

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.
