Cindy L. Thomas

I hired Cindy L.Thomas back in March for my divorce, I clearly asked about the cost, she gave me what I thought was a fair price. Due to my divorce was very simple, there was no minor children and everything was mutually agreed between myself and ex husband. I was very clear in my consultation I di...d not want to spend a lot of money, I actually had my ex husband go in and sign, pick up his paperwork to avoid extra cost. I only went to the office 3 times, and seen her for 10 minutes in court. I recently received an additional bill for an extra $270.00, one of the charges on the bill was $25.00 for 2 questions a 2 minute phone conversation with the office staff.. Today I called the office to pay the $270.00 and was questioning the additional fees, the office staff tells me I have an additional bill for $270.00.. I was pretty upset to find out what I thought I would be paying 270.00 now the cost to what I owe is $540.00 expressing my concern, because again my case was very simple, Her office staff was very rude and very unprofessional she hung up the phone. I paid the agreed upon fee up front. Very disappointed, it would have been nice if communication was clear, and the office staff to be a little more professional, No one in a place of business should hang up on a customer.

Outrageous legal bills, poor results and Attitude sums up my experience with Cindy Thomas of Battle Creek Michigan. I was treated as though my custody battle was trivial and unimportant. Never again will I allow myself to be represented by a woman who acts indifferent to my needs and is so poorly pre...pared for court! Seek out a reputable firm or consider representing yourself.

I decided to use Cindy for my divorce through a suggestion by a family member who had used her before. She was very rude, and generally didn't care about the scenario on what was going on, just what would soak up time to make her money. I feel like she took advantage of me, and I paid her 3500 and sh...e burned through that in two months with paperwork and 2 court hearings. She withdrew as counsel and has proceeded in harassing me for money as I have a balance still due on my account. Lady, I'm broke. I pay over half of my income to child support because you wanted to withdraw, and now she's threatening to sue me for the 1200 or so I still owe? Stay away. Stay far, far away.

Never would I encourage anyone to use this lawyer:( My child custody case she got half of what I was asking for and that was standard! Yes I said that right..... she got me half of what was already entitled to me! She acted like she was dong me a favor by her being there:( Did she seem to forget I wa...s the one who handed her the money? (almost $2,000) I figured her high stakes would better representation, boy was I wrong! Not to mention she helped nothing with the support part of this.... where did I go wrong? All I was asking for was more time with my son in the summer months because the mother only gave me every other weekend and nothing more. I watch my step kids go with their dad and he doesn't even take them the time he's allowed, god what I would do to have that with mine!! She acted like I was wasting her time with my sob story, good luck if you use her
