Very Good Experience

I attended the Workers Comp 101 workshop that Cynthia Hennessey spoke at. I learned so much, and I knew then that I wanted her to handle my case as I was in over my head. I had no idea how the insurance companies play hardball with work injuries. Cynthia was extremely nice to work with. As a nurse... and a lawyer I knew I was in good hands with her. My case went to mediation, at which time Cynthia argued the case to the judge and we got a very good and very fair settlement. I would definitely use Cynthia again if I needed a lawyer.

Excellent Lawyer for Auto Accident Case

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.

Very Nice Attorney

My husband and I hired Cynthia Hennessey to handle my accident case. She was highly recommended by another patient sitting in the waiting room at my doctor’s office. I had both a Workmens Comp case and a Personal Injury case because my truck was hit by another truck while I was on the job. Cynthia... was like an angel. I am the type that nothing ever goes my way. My work fired me because the doctor put restrictions on me of no lifting. At my age, (56) I knew no one else was ever going to hire me. Cynthia actually cared about me. She knew I had no money coming in, so she worked fast to get everything filed and pushed hard for a fast trial date even though the insurance company kept trying to delay it. I would have lost everything if she didn’t work so hard. She knew everything about Social Security Disability, Workmens Comp, Second Injury Fund and Trucking cases. She got me disability from Social Security, a great settlement from the Workmens Comp insurance company and life time weekly benefits from the Second Injury Fund. Then she got me a good settlement from the trucking case. I thank God I found her. I have recommended her to my neighbor and my nephew and both have also had a great experience.

Highly Recommended

I knew that I wanted a female attorney to handle my case. I am convinced that women are more organized and prepared and handle most things better than men. I was extremely happy to find Ms. Hennessey. She was always extremely friendly, and kind. She returned my calls and always made me feel like she ...cared not only about my case, but about me as a person. I had a very complicated back injury that required several surgeries and left me unable to work. Ms. Hennessey worked very hard, and got me lifetime medical benefits as well as lifetime weekly benefits. She was a far better lawyer than the one for the insurance company. Also, as a Registered Nurse she knew my medical records better than even my doctor. I definitely recommend her.
