Long-term client

I have been a client of Cynthia's for 10 plus years. She is experienced and knowledgeable and has always answered my questions in a timely manner. As is typical, my ex is difficult to deal with and Cynthia has worked diligently to manage him/his attorney in a way that is respectful and productive. ... She always shares her opinion and gives a general idea of the costs involved with a particular strategy. She listens to what I have to say and has always respected my decisions, even if they differed from her advice. Having a good relationship with your divorce attorney is extremely important, and I am grateful for the relationship that I have with Cynthia.

Great attorney

Cynthia was excellent. She was there when I needed her and answered any question I had. She made a difficult time in my life go as smoothly as possible. Very glad I hired her and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney.

Biased against Fathers

If she is assigned to your custody case and you are a father, you will be screwed. My ex lied the entirety of our case and was never reprimanded. Ms Albin cared very little about seeing a dad’s side and instead ruled for my ex every time. Run if she is appointed to your case!!!!

Poor services, Communication and is NOT friendly at ALL

If you use Cynthia do not expect a call or any communications back for weeks. She also doesn't provide a detailed bill for her clients. I would not recommend her to anyone as she failed our family and made decisions solely based on emails. We spoke to her once. She also can meditate between paren...ts and would NOT recommend her as a parent coordinator or lawyer. USE SOMEONE ELSE!

Mmmm pissed off mom

You were recommended by a friend, who you failed. Then you took all my money-I had nothing. I personally believe you could redeem yourself if you actually meant business for your clients. 6 years I’ve been beatin down. I’m a good mother you got scared by power. I hate you for how you treated me. ...You got scared by Peter love who was never a family attorney. You did me dirty, I trusted you. Hope you are the most miserable person on this earth. Your children deserve better. Play in traffic

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have had many cases with Cynthia and I find her to be diligent, hard working, ethical, and compassionate in her role as opposing counsel and as a guardian ad litem. She has almost 20 years of experience and she is well respected in the St. Louis and St. Charles legal communities and before their judges. She is a zealous advocate when needed and a resourceful problem solver if a case can be settled in lieu of trial. She is part of a prestigious family law and volunteers in the legal community actively. I would highly recommend you consider Cynthia as your attorney."

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.
