Cindy L. Lasky

I'm not one to typically write reviews, however, I feel so fortunate to have found the Lasky Law firm that I wanted to share my experience with others who are searching for a family law attorney. After doing some online research and contacting several different firms in town, I ultimately chose to w...ork with the Lasky Law firm. This decision was based solely on my phone conversations with the office staff and my initial meeting with Cindy Lasky — right away I felt the warmth, professionalism and confidence of their team. The Lasky Law firm handled two high conflict cases for me — a paternity case and a domestic violence case, both with the same individual. During the 10 months of litigation, Cindy and her team made me feel as if I was their #1 client — their level of responsiveness, pro-active approach and concern for my feelings was ever apparent. However, what I most appreciate about Cindy is her level of experience, integrity and direct style. Cindy is well-respected in the legal community, extremely knowledgeable about the law and understands the bigger picture/long-term strategy of the case. She is level-headed, respects the importance of timing and does not hesitate to be aggressive when needed. Although my case settled prior to trial I was confident that Cindy's vast trial experience would've served me well in court. Cindy is a woman with integrity who will always be upfront with you regarding the status of your case, whether its what you want to hear or not. Ultimately, I learned there will be good weeks and bad weeks during any lengthy litigation. What mattered most to me was that during those bad weeks, not only did I have an attorney that cared about my feelings, but I had one that was skilled enough to get us back to a good week quickly. I couldn't be more grateful to Cindy and her entire team.

I first hired Cindy Lasky in December of 2008. I had a domestic violence hearing I needed representation for. The retainer was comparable to other firms I called & I went with LLF based on their Folio Weekly “Top Family Law Lawyer” in Jax award. I was young & in fear for my life & my lawyer provid...ed great comfort & stood up for my rights in a way I could not have done myself. A few months later, they handled my Dissolution of Marriage (with children)-again, comparable retainer & excellent service. Fast forward to 2012, I had child support issues that needed handling & wanted to hold my ex accountable for years of neglecting my children & failure to pay child support. Cindy handled several hearings, mediations, & all kinds of motions to get us there. She is always on time, always prepared. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this woman. We ultimately ended up needing to arrange Termination of Rights & Step-parent Adoption. Cindy felt Heather (lawyer in office) would be a better fit for the case due to her experience in adoptions. Heather was just as wonderful as Cindy. As for her staff, I have never felt “brushed off” or “kept on the phone to prolong billable hours”. I used to be a bookkeeper & I keep exhaustive records of everything. I went over every monthly statement with a fine-tooth comb & only found one mistake once & it was fixed promptly. Desire (paralegal) is AMAZING. Answers e-mails within MINUTES. I read some of the negative reviews on here & I cannot imagine where they came from because I have experienced nothing but above & beyond service from these people. The only “negative” I can think of is Cindy is quite aggressive. (I don't find this to be negative though!) She takes her job seriously & is not going to waste your time or hers on drama and anything that is not going to ultimately help your case. She will tell you point-blank if something is relevant & usable or not in the courtroom. She is a “bulldog” & I would rather have Cindy in my corner than against me!!
