"I've worked with, for and against this attorney for more than a decade in various situations. She is dedicated to her clients and her practice. There aren't many lawyers who focus their practice on only family law issues like she does. The unique circumstances of this area of law require an attorney not only well-versed in law but one who recognizes that long after a court order is entered, a family still stands. Kim Cunzo represents her clients' needs with true professionalism and, more important in my opinion, compassion. I endorse this lawyer without reservation."

"I endorse this lawyer. I find Kim to be a highly experienced and highly effective family law attorney. Having had the pleasure of previously supervising Kim at the Office of the State Attorney, I can unquestionably state that Kim is extremely professional and extremely well prepared. Kim is a very worthy colleague and adversary."

She is very familiar with the judges, lawyers, and all the other major family law players on the Treasure Coast. Ms. Cunzo is hardworking and compassionate, and always puts her clients' needs first."
