Money money money

I hired Cindy back in 2014 shortly after my special needs daughter was born and taken away from me by her mother. The consultation before and immediately after retaining Mrs. Lasky were great and positive but it was all down hill from there. I rarely heard from or spoke to Mrs. Lasky but when I did i...t was rude, short and always ended with big dollar amounts. I mostly had contact with Desiré whom was helpful and friendly for the most part. To make this short and sweet I've invested over $5000 in to Lasky Law firm for them to lose me just about all visitation in mediation, file paperwork after paperwork accomplishing what seemed to be nothing, emailing and calling me at my financial expense. This office came with high recommendations and a very good rating on here but experiences may vary apparently.

Replied last March 25, 2017

For those who review this post, I must acknowledge my disappointment in the post itself. I acknowledge that legal cases are very stressful and very expensive, especially where custody disputes are at issue. In our firm, we offer reduced hourly rates, reduced initial retainers, monthly payments and other financial options as the case will allow, to assist the client when the case becomes active and expensive, and each of those options was provided in this case. In order to achieve success, the client has to be committed, both financially and personally to the case, just as we were. That did not happen in this case. Each of our attorneys and staff works diligently and compassionately for our clients as they are very important to us. We provide every type of financial assistance we can, in order to prove our dedication but again, we cannot do this without client commitment.

Good lawyer who handled by prenup

I hired Cindy's law firm services to handle my prenup. She was upfront with a retainer costs as well as how they charge for time via phone calls, meetings, e-mails as well as who much it costs depending on who is responding. She handles many cases and there is a team of people who will help on your c...ase including paralegals. This is the norm as I have hired different lawyers before. She quickly got me the paperwork to fill out based on our conversations/emails and when I fell behind on time frame her team quickly worked to make things right. I would recommend her services to others go through a prenup.

Straight forward, honest, and knows her stuff

Cindy Lasky has worked with me since 2008 on three different cases and she was right on point each time. She never gave me false hope but was always offering alternatives and defining the path to take. Never was too busy to explain anything. She and her staff guided and protected me during very co...nfusing and difficult times. All I had to do was be honest with her, explain where I was, and then let her lead the case. In the end, things worked out better than I had expected. While I hope I don't need the Lasky Law Firm services again, I wouldn't hesitate to call and ask opinions on any legal topic. Their advice has been invaluable. Thanks Cindy

Lasky Law Firm

I cannot say anything bad about the Lasky Law Firm. Cindy and her team are absolutely amazing, just so professional at all times. Prior to going to them I was scared and very uncertain of the possible outcomes. After the very first consultation, I left feeling like a weight was taking off my shoulde...rs. This was because, I could immediately tell that I was being represented by the best. Cindy and Heather and their paralegals were so helpful, knowledgable and respectful! Throughout the entire process they went above and beyond for me. Every time I reach out with a question, I received an answer in a very timely fashion. Just so knowledgeable and reassuring. I would trust them with anything! I can't thank them enough for all they did. They took a negative part of my life and quickly turned it into a positive! I will continue to recommend them to friends, family and others. Thank you so much Lasky Law Firm!

Would Highly Recommend!

If you are looking for a good law firm that will be aggressive, follow up, go the extra mile you have found the one!! I can’t say enough good things about the Lasky Law Firm. My husband had an extremely difficult case and they were able to finally put it to an end. My husband was originally divorc...ed in a state other than Florida and his child support obligation was to remain in effect until the children were emancipated by the court (not just by turning 18). We first tried to litigate it here in Florida where his X made a huge stink to go back to the original state the order was first made and we ended up litigating there for two years, meanwhile she was still collecting child support! Once that was finished we still had to litigate here in Florida for the local courts to adopt our order and credit us back for years of overpaid child support. We called multiple law firms and they seemed uninterested in our case as it didn’t seem that it would be “ongoing” enough for them to waste their time getting involved. We ended up talking to a nice young man at the Lasky Law Firm who answered all of our questions and set us up with a consultation right away. After speaking with one of the lawyers there we decided to retain and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome at this point!!!! We had to go to yet another trial and the Law Firm worked on this case as a team for several nights beforehand preparing. I wanted to mention that the hearing ended up being in Orlando and they were able to go with reasonable added expense. We won our case and now the X has a $24K+ judgment due to us. Cindy and her crew saved us and got us out of the system and able to move forward with our lives. Would highly recommend!!
