Review Cynthia Brown Tracy

The Best Family Lawyer in Texas

5.0 stars

As the title states, Mrs. Tracy is the best family lawyer in the Texas. She has represented me twice, for my divorce and again when my ex decided to bring me back to court over trivial matters. I have been incredibly happy with her and her staff. Some reviews say that she is expensive but you get what you pay for, and with Mrs. Tracy you get the best.

Where do I even began, Ms. Tracy and her Firm are THE BEST we have not just hired her ONCE but TWICE yes I said TWICE that should say something right there. Her and her office gets things done. Before hiring Ms. Tracy we previously hired 2 lawyers before her which was a waste of money and time and nothing was done. Ms. Tracy and Kristen has accomplished so much for us, we got custody of one of the boys and lifetime support was removed from the other. Ms.Tracy and her office communicates with you every step of the way so there is no surprises, she tells you her opinion as a “what can happen” since judges are unpredictable. You get what you pay for and she is worth every bit of it. If you sit back and watch her in court you will not be disappointed, I was amazed how she represented us she holds nothing back and exposes everything. She made the lawyers on the other side look like newbies fresh out of law school and that’s being nice, since I probably could have done better than them. With this being said I recommend her 110% if you’re not ready to get what you want then hire one of these OTHER lawyers and pray.

You can't ask for a better attorney than Cynthia and her staff. Our case was a difficult adoption case having to follow the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC). Dealing with another state AG and Amicus(AD L item) attorney, and DCS(CPS). Along with making sure that all the fine details were covered. They were forthright and strong and actually guide the them through the process. This was our second time using Cynthia and we are quite pleased with her counsel. The first time she won our case which by all accounts was unwinnable how ever she pull it off. We would definitely use her again, because their is no one better in the area period.

Details Matter

My divorce case just finalized and I am very happy with the results that Cynthia Tracy and staff helped me obtain. The entire team were professional and courteous at all times...even when I was stressed out and venting my frustration with the opposing side causing unnecessary delays. Cynthia's attention to details and thoroughness in gathering information was impressive. In the end, this attention to details is what I believe "won the day". I would readily recommend Cynthia and the Tracy Law firm to anyone who is in a difficult situation. Cynthia is knowledgeable, assertive and focused in her approach and I would ask; "Isn't that who you would want in your corner protecting your interests"? Even when I was frustrated and ready to give in just to get the matter over with, she would calmly but firmly advise me to stay the course and not give away anything I didn't have to. Hopefully I will not need her services for this same matter again, but if I do ever end up needing a strong but fair attorney I will gladly return to her firm for help.

Attorney Tracy was excellent in every area. She had demands on me that stressed me but when I provided her with the information she needed she shinned as bright as a star. In and out of the court room. She made no promises but brought every lie that could be exposed to light. I absolute adore her and her staff. They push hard for me to turn in everything that was required but she was able to far exceed anything I expected. SHe did nothing underhanded and would not allow me to even if I wanted. She kept my reasonable number one objective as her number one objective. I recommend her to anyone and everyone. They worked long hours on my case and were extremely fair in billing me. She is my number one choice and number two choice to represent me. Attorney Tracy and her staff still help me with questions and referrals for other legal services.

Exemplary Law Practice

Cynthia Tracy was the fourth family lawyer/practice that I have used since 2004. I have to say that this relationship has been extremely beneficial to my case in all court proceeding and have always led to favorable judgments and outcomes in all matters. The staff has been extremely professional and Cynthia never made excuses for anyone and dealt with matters accordingly. Her practice is based in Clear Lake and while I live in the Spring / The Woodlands area she always made it easy to hold meetings whether in person or via conference calls. The staff, including another attorney working my case was very attentive and worked to explain matters in detail. I was very satisfied and happy to have hired them. There is an old adage that you get what you pay for and when it comes to hiring the best, most qualified and well-respected practice it is money well spent. She will not sugarcoat anything to you and will give you advice and recommendations even if it’s not want you want to hear. That’s something that you can truly appreciate – someone that is frank with you. If you are ever have to go to court in from of a judge, Cynthia's interaction with the judge and opposing counsel will flat-out impress you. I have seen many and I do mean many interactions and she is defiantly the J.J. Watt of attorneys. My case is closing for now but if I have to go back for any enforcement issues you better believe I would hire her again and would recommend anyone needing her expertise.

My case currently is ongoing. From the start Cynthia and her firm has been very professional concerning my case. Whenever I needed clarification on something there was never a time when I would call them that they did not answer or call back in a timely manner with an answer or solution. Cynthia maintains an unwavering focus while she is representing me. She has a keen attention to detail and recently when we appeared in court with the opposing counsel she was in control from start to finish. I am totally satisfied with her as my attorney and I highly recommend her and her firm.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

Cynthia is a passionate advocate for her clients. She has a commanding understanding of the law and passionately argues it on behalf of her client's interests. I've enjoyed having her on the opposite side of cases and enjoy that it makes me a better practitioner since I end up doing additional legal research to respond to her briefs.

Hubert Steinmann, Family Attorney on Sep 5, 2016
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

Very professional and understanding. Advocated for her client and very knowledgeable regarding all the legal and factual details needed to resolve the case. Her staff goes above and beyond when dealing with opposing counsel, an excellent office to work with all around.

Cynthia is an excellent advocate for her clients. She knows the law like the back of her hand and is very detail oriented. Cynthia is the lawyer I refer clients to when I have a conflict issue and cannot handle their case.
