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.

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.

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.

Professional, Compassionate and Effective!

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.

highly recommend Cindy Lasky!!

Cindy was referred to me by a friend and I have not had any regrets on hiring her as my lawyer. Not only is she very knowledgeable in this proffesion but she is honest and I feel she tells you what you need to hear and not what you want to hear. 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 has shown nothing but kindness and understanding when I have spoken with her about my situation. Cindy Lasky has made it to where my family and I feel protected and safe and I will be thankful to her for that always.
