Cynthia Coughlin Hennessey

Cynthia Hennessey provided exceptional representation during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Her knowledge and experience in workers’ compensation law were evident from our first conversation. My case was medically and legally complex, yet she navigated every detail with confidence, pre...cision, and strategic insight. Throughout the process, Cynthia ensured I understood what to expect and consistently advocated for my best interests. She anticipated challenges, addressed obstacles proactively, and handled negotiations with strength and professionalism. Her depth of experience in workers’ compensation made an overwhelming system feel manageable and allowed me to focus on healing. She was particularly effective in addressing delays, denials, and administrative barriers that often arise in complex claims. Her persistence and ability to keep the process moving forward made a tremendous difference in both my care and my peace of mind. What truly sets Cynthia apart is her compassion. She recognized the emotional and physical toll this journey took and treated me with dignity, patience, and genuine care. I never felt like just another case — I felt heard, respected, and protected. Because of Cynthia’s dedication, perseverance, and expertise, I am able to move forward with peace of mind and security for the future. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking a workers’ compensation attorney who combines exceptional legal skill with true compassion for her clients.

Cynthia Hennessey successfully represented me “long distance” with a workmen’s compensation claim several years ago after I suffered a traumatic brain injury from a fall while at work. I give her my highest recommendation. She is a caring, knowledgeable, accomplished and very successful attorney. ...Although we never met in person, she always made time for calls when needed despite her very busy schedule.

My husband worked for a very large company, (I can’t say who) that delivers packages worldwide. He fell off a loading dock 2 years ago, onto his back and head. He suffered an injury to his head and brain and has never returned to work and will never return to work. He has never been the same since.... He is depressed, has terrible memory problems, can’t concentrate, his mood has changed terribly. He is nothing like the man I married. Anyway, Cynthia Hennessey was our lawyer for the workmens comp case. Thank goodness we found her. As a nurse, she knew everything there was to know about head injuries. The workmens comp doctors all said there was nothing wrong with him, that he was faking. Cynthia believed him, and knew exactly what we were going through. She sent us to experts who finally did the correct testing, and took our case to trial. The judge was visibly upset with workmens Comp. He gave us everything we asked for, lifetime benefits, medical treatment and attendant care and all of our bills paid for. Again, thank goodness for Cynthia. I strongly recommend her for any type of brain injury or head injury.

Cynthia Hennessey handled my daughter’s car accident case. I was very nervous hiring a lawyer for her as she is only 18. I knew she needed a lawyer and would not be treated fairly by the insurance company. I admit I liked that Cynthia is a nurse and a woman. I thought she would be more understandin...g and compassionate with my daughter’s injuries. I was right with that. She was so nice to my daughter, she spent hours getting to know her, and making her feel comfortable. I was right that the insurance company for the other driver was terrible. My daughter was not at fault, did nothing wrong, and was badly hurt. The whole accident was a horrible situation for us, but Cynthia is very agressive with them and in the end got us a great settlement at mediation that we were very happy with. I highly recommend her.
