For years, I represented corporations in products liability, pharmaceutical liability and medical negligence cases, but after a decade of working on the defense-side, I opened my own firm where I use my knowledge, skills, and training to help people. My firm practices family law (divorce, custody disputes, child support, adoptions, premarital agreements) and plaintiff's personal injury litigation. My firm is a 100% minority and women-owned law firm. In the legal arena, the first step towards success is hiring the right lawyer!
Practice areas
Represent persons in divorce, custody disputes, spousal maintenance, child support, modifications, enforcements, and adoptions. Also prepare pre-marital and post-marital agreements.
Represent individuals in personal injury matters.

I endorse this lawyer. Cynthia specializes in Business Litigation. I have known Cynthia for approximately 8-9 years and previously worked with her at the same law firm. I have always known Cynthia to be well versed in the law, extremely devoted to her clients, and one of the most intelligent lawyers I have had the pleasure of working with. Cynthia stays on top of current case law and statutory provisions in the fields of practice she concentrates in. She is a very dedicated attorney who practices with the utmost professionalism. I do not hesitate to refer clients to Cynthia who are in need of an attoreny who specializes in Business LItigation. Everyone I have referred to her has been extremely pleased with teh services she has provided. For these reasons, I wholeheartedly endorse Cynthia Rendon.
Teresa Peterson, Litigation Attorney on Feb 21, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse this lawyer. It has been my privilege to have known Cynthia Rendon as an attorney since 2003. Over this time I have observed a creative, intelligent attorney who has empathy for all her clients. Her clients have ranged from corporate CEOs to individuals with grade school education, and she relates equally effectively with either group. Additionally, her knowledge of the law is in my opinion without parallel. In the few occasions where she doesn’t have an immediate knowledge of the law, she has the ability to research and find the answers more quickly than anyone I have ever known. I also have had the privilege of working with her as a partner for 2 years while in Houston. In fact, even though we are no longer partners, we frequently collaborate on matters as colleagues. I recommend her highly as an attorney who knows the law and uses it to act as a fierce advocate for her clients.
