Posted by anonymous | May 10, 2025 | Hired Attorney

She has no time and is a lousy attorney

She quit because she was beaten and didn’t know what to do. She was hard to get hold of and had too many outside distractions.

Posted by anonymous | November 11, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Excellent Attorney

I came to Ms. Bice seeking advice for a child support case. She was very knowledgeable and thorough. I could not have asked for a better attorney or outcome of my case! Her and her staff are very friendly and did an excellent job of keeping me informed of any changes and or answered any questions tha...t I may have had.

Posted by Beverly | June 24, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent Attorney

Cindy handled my divorce and did an incredible job. She looked after what was best for me. She is honest and ethical and will be very straight forward with you instead of telling you what you want to hear. I appreciated that very much. Her fee's were very reasonable. Cindy knows the law and will m...ake sure her clients get the best care possible. You are in good hands with her.

Divorce Lawyer

Cindy knew what she was talking about. She was quick to handle any problems that came up in my divorce. She wasn't buddies with the opposing attorney like some attorneys I've dealt with. The advice she gave me was great even when I didn't think so at the time. Reasonable fees. When it came time to go... to court, she did an awesome job winning my case!

Divorce and separation lawyer | Mar 22

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Cindy Bice is one of the best attorneys I know. She is extremely articulate and effective in court. She is always well prepared and is a tough, loyal fighter for her clients. I have read a review by a former client on this site insulting her professionalism. This review is so unfair and is not representative of Cindy. We can't make every single client happy even when we do all we can for them. Most, not all, understand that. If I were choosing a divorce or custody attorney for myself, Cindy would be one of my first choices. She is the best cross-examiner I have seen."

Censured issued in TN, 2025

When an attorney is censured it means he or she did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
