Made me feel like i was their only clint.

This law firm made me feel like a part of their family! Everyone was always professional, with their own added love. I never had to wait long for any response to any question that I had for them. Cindy was very knowledgeable on military ways, and she was very honest and straight forward with everythi...ng. She never pulled any punches with me. The ladies at the front desk, along with Stephanie, were always there when I needed anything. With their smiles and kind words they made me feel at ease. Desire, what can I say except for she is "THE BEST". She really helped me through a rough time in my life, so THANK YOU, with all your kind words. So if you want a team that will work for you and make you feel like you are a part of a family, and make you feel like you are the only client, this is the law firm for you. Professional, Loving and Great at their job!!!!!

Rescue Mission

In a normal world when a person needs an attorney it is usually for writing a will, settling an estate or buying property. In the abnormal world of bitter divorces and family ravaging child custody cases a person needs more than an attorney; that person needs a counselor who knows children, is more ...than familiar with divorce settlements, shares empathy for the war-torn victims of one-sided bullying, gets involved both professionally and emotionally with her clients and exhibits a mastery of case law practicing it on the high side of ethics and morality. In Jacksonville, that attorney is Cindy Lasky of the Lasky Law Firm. During a recent case involving our family Cindy Lasky needed all of the afore mentioned traits to lead us to victory in a courtroom dominated by difficult and harassing opposing attorneys and their determined client. She practiced the type of law and defense that rose above all the baseless trumped up charges, innuendo, and limitless petitions / motions brought by the opposition designed to influence a judge who wouldn’t have it. Cindy Lasky exposed all the falsehoods and mistakes of the opposition by using carefully worded case law precedents, and keeping exact records of statements made, issues visited, and claims asserted. All this was not without trepidation. Every step of the way to final victory, Cindy was all-in on both the work she needed to do, much of it after normal office hours, and the emotions that a mother feels for her own children and their welfare. Cindy Lasky was the whole package for us in our time of need and I can tell she does the same for all her clients. She surely made my day as the final judgement came down; and she made the many sleepless nights worrying beforehand disappear from my emotional memory. In addition, her staff is super-efficient, cordial, and comforting; and both the staff and Cindy made themselves amicably available for our many impromptu queries. Thank you.

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.

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

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.
