Cecily Patterson Skarda

Look no further, you have found your lawyer. Cecily Skarda is everything you expect a lawyer to be and even more. She fights for you and speaks with conviction in the courtroom that will leave you speechless with goosebumps. Remember, you are a team. She is representing you so provide her with every ...necessary detail you can, and I promise, she will deliver. When she speaks, she grasps everyone’s attention in the courtroom, and she defends you like you are family. I have never seen anything like it. She knows the law and presents your case with confidence and determination that is admired by everyone in the room. You can’t help but listen to her and admire her. If you’re reading this, you are probably in a place in life where you feel lost and hopeless because a spouse is trying to paint you out to be someone that you’re not. I understand, I’ve been there. I felt like there was no where to turn. No one to help me. Until a friend of mine told me to call Cecily. Cecily changed my life. She gave me my life back when I thought there was nothing else to be done. She stood up in the courtroom and spoke with such tenacity and eloquence. She defended me as if I were her own. You can hear the passion in her voice. I found myself trembling with anxiety to becoming completely relaxed once Cecily stood up and spoke on my behalf. She is worth every penny and I promise you will not regret hiring her. I am so grateful that a lawyer like this resides in Little Rock. You need her. Call her.

Not every case needs a GUNSLINGER, but sometimes you just do. I have more than 30 years experience in the criminal justice system and generally do not like lawyers, probably like most people. That changes when you need one. She is an excellent litigator and I recommend her hands down ten out of te...n times. She won't answer the phone when you need a lawyer hug, but when it comes down to the heart of the matter and needing someone on your side and in your corner that can get it done, she's your Huckleberry. If you need a chihuahua, I know a guy in Conway. If you need a real deal lawyer, her number is attached to this review. Call her.

Cecily Skarda is a phenomenal family lawyer. I consulted Cecily in Feb 2012, for a custody case. After reviewing the divorce decree she was very straight forward, it would be an expensive uphill battle, and she could not promise me anything would change. She suggested I think about it a couple of day...s and get back to her. Her honesty impressed me, she did not want to make any promises that she couldn't keep. Cecily works alone, which can be a double edged sword. She does all her own work and meticulously prepares for her cases. However, that means she is not always able to answer the phone, or return a call as soon as you might like. The first go around I was a little nervous. I had friends who had been through similar litigation and spoke to their lawyer, or secretary often. I really was not sure how things would go, and legal representation is not cheap. All my fears were put behind me once we stepped in the court room. She is incredible on her feet, knows the law, and is passionate about her cases. I realized just because I didn't know what she was doing, didn't mean she didn't have a plan. I learned to trust her and realized I paid her to worry so I didn't have to. About a year later I had to hire her again. This time it was much easier. I still didn't know every detail of what was going on, but I knew it didn't matter. She had it covered. In all I have been in the court room 4 times, and seen her go head to head with 3 different lawyers. ( The opposing party changed counsel 3 times) I was more impressed every time. There were bumps along the way, procedural things that didn't go our way. However at the end of the day when it mattered, we prevailed. I ended up with more than I originally was going to ask for, and that is because she did not quit or give in. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to prevail in the court room. She will not caudle you and reassure you every step of the way, but that's what friends are for. She however knows how to litigate and win a case, and that is all that really matters anyway. She did an outstanding job, and I can not say enough good things about her. I have had friends that hired her and she did just as good of a job for them. My advice to anyone that chooses Cecily to represent them. 1. Be honest, brutally honest, when your lawyer is surprised that is never a good thing. 2. TRUST HER. Do your job and give her any information that might be of assistance, and she will put it to good use.
