$5800 gone with only BAD ADVISE

I will be brief. I look at life sometimes and ask would I do it again and with her as my attorney the answer is absolutely not. I hired a different attorney for a little over $6000 including mediation and it was wrapped up. Like getting a divorce isn’t enough to get told one thing and have a rea...lity be another inside 30 days of hiring her, then $5800 is what she claimed in on her hours spent was literally impossible.. it was also very hard getting what I take for transferred to my new attorney. Buyer beware

Great child custody lawyer

Mrs Lasky and her team are professional, empathetic, and straight to the point. Although Mrs Lasky is known as a “bulldog,” I found her to be straight forward, honest, and practical. She was not overly aggressive (in a good way) and was realistic with what our expectations should be. She got us the o...utcome we had hoped for and her team in the office was a great support system. Desire and Stephanie were always willing to help and responded in a timely manner. And John and Judy were always friendly and willing to work with us. i would recommend this office for any child custody battle.

She'll always be my attorney

I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about Cindy Lasky. From day one of meeting with Cindy I knew I had made the right choice in retaining her as my attorney. I think what really sets Cindy apart from other attorneys is her care and concern for any child that is involved with family law ...proceedings. The details of my case are far too complex to write about in this short review here, but I will try to sum it up to the best of my ability here. I had difficulties with my child's Mom related to the final judgment & time sharing that was initially established. Cindy told me at our initial meeting that she would get my time back with my child. We ended up having a hearing to settle the differences we were having between each other. My outlook going into the hearing was one of negativity merely because my experiences with my former attorney prior to our divorce did not go well at all. That experience left me feeling like the entire family law system was very maternally sided and I felt like my former attorney did not represent my best interests at all. Cindy changed my outlook thru her efforts in working together with me. She told me to not worry and that everything would go well at our hearing. She really cares about her clients & she considers you as part of the team. I learned that day that when Cindy says something she means it. She is a woman of her word & putting my trust in her made all of the difference. We were very successful at our hearing. I got my time back with my child and for the first time I felt like the family law system had been fair to me and we had received some justice. Not only did I get my time back with my child, but Cindy also showed her concern for our child by asking the judge to consider appointing a therapist for all of us, which was subsequently ordered by the judge during our hearing. If you want an attorney that has your back 100 percent then you should look no further. Cindy Lasky is who I will always go to and refer people to hands down. There's no doubt in my mind that Cindy is the best family law attorney that you'll ever find. Making the choice to retain Cindy for your family law issues will be one of the best decisions you ever make for yourself and your children.

Very pleased with the results

Cindy and her staff were absolutely amazing! Cindy Lasky has worked with me since 2008 on two different modification cases and she was right on point each time. She always offered alternative solutions to take that proved to be beneficial to me. Her method is straight, no-nonsense arguments, very th...orough and intelligent. She is very quick to answer any of my concerns whether it is during office hours or it is nine o'clock at night. She and her staff guided me during very difficult times. Her staff kept in touch with me with any new information that came to their attention. They were up front and super honest with me. This law firm went above and beyond what was asked of them. Because of this firm, my life has changed for the better. I will forever be thankful for what they have done for me. I would like to take the opportunity to express my gratitude and pleasure for having the Lasky Law Firm represent me during my case.

Alimony

Mrs. Lasky is an outstanding divorce lawyer. I went back to court after my divorce when my previous Lawyer failed to properly assess the situation with my case. Mrs. Lasky through her persistence and her expert knowledge of Florida law never allowed me to be discouraged. Mrs. Lasky was always honest ...and up front with me and kept me posted day by day on what to expect. Her support staff provided an excellent opportunity to completely eliminate my alimony, which was for life!! Her professionalism and dedication are beyond reproach! Thank you Cindy and your staff for going above and beyond to help me. I shall forever be grateful.
