Posted by Cortney | April 13, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Very efficient probate attorney!

We used Cindy for my family's estate planning. She was efficient and thorough throughout the process. I would highly recommend her services. She was knowledgeable about all of Florida's rules on estate and probate.

Mr

She did a fantastic job getting me through a problem filled closing with 4 siblings in the middle of the holidays. Thank you Cynthia.

Avvo Rating

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.
