Divorse with spouse alcoholism.

I would highly recommend Cynthia as an attorney. Cynthia had many challenges to deal with in my divorse. She asked my opinion and would give me her opinion on alot of issues that came up. I have never gone through this before, so knowing she was there made this easier to go through and make it thro...ugh. She always kept me informed, explaining the process so I would understand. My spouses attorney was rated the best attorney, but in the end Cynthia was the best attorney. My spouse even said he wish he would of went with someone else. When getting my final papers ready to be signed, she made sure I was covered in regards to my spouses alcoholism and parenting time. The staff at her office was as kind and helpful as Cynthia was.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
