Cynthia Coughlin Hennessey

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.

My husband had a fall at work injuring his neck and back. We knew it was a serious injury, and that we better get a lawyer to represent us. We had no idea where to turn. I opened up the paper and saw an advertisement for Cynthia Hennessey’s Workers Comp 101 the workshop. We cleared our calendar and... went. I can only say we left absolutely amazed and sure that Cynthia Hennessey was going to be our lawyer. She is a nurse and a workers comp specialist. In 2 hours she taught us more than I ever believed I could learn about Work Comp insurance companies, the Second Injury Fund, Social Security, future medical treatment etc. She was funny, smart and informative. Our case is still pending as my husband has just had his 3rd surgery. But I couldn’t be happier with our choice of lawyer. I highly recommend her.

I never in a million years thought I would need a lawyer for a Workers Comp injury. I am a pharmaceutical sales rep and I fell down 5 stairs while carrying a load of work materials, I hurt my neck and couldn’t work. Workers Comp tried to deny this at first. It was then that I knew I needed a lawye...r. I researched and read up on every Workers Comp lawyer in St. Louis. I found Cynthia Hennessey, and I liked that she was a Nurse, a lawyer and also had worked for the insurance companies before. As well, I liked all the great reviews. I met with her, and immediately I knew I was in good hands. She was so nice and professional, I was sure I made a great choice. She filed for a hardship and won. So I started getting paid for the time I was missing. Workers Comp tried several more tricks to mess with me, but with each one, Cynthia immediately fought back, dragged them into court and won. My case ended with a good settlement. Of course my neck will never be the same again. But I was very, very happy to have had Cynthia as my lawyer and would use her again.
