What I had hoped for and much more

I hired Ms. Cynthia Mendoza to represent my son, who was going through a challenging time in his life and had made some very poor decisions. In addition to being professional and extremely responsive, she was very sensitive to my son’s needs and took the time to get to know him and truly understand h...is situation. I view Mrs. Mendoza as more then competent, very thorough with her research, effective with both her written and verbal communication and sincerely kind, caring and compassionate. She was very realistic and never sugarcoated any facet of this process. However, we felt an immediate sense of ease upon meeting with her for the first time. Because of Ms. Mendoza’s talents, skills and her relentless efforts, by son’s charges were dropped. I have worked with a number of attorneys professional and a few personally and without a doubt, Ms. Mendoza is one of the best. I hope I do not have to use a personal attorney in the future, but if I do, I will not hesitate to rehire Ms. Cynthia Mendoza.

DWI case

Very honest upfront and direct. Pleased with her attitude and friendliness. She worked very hard with language barrier but was successes, overcame with passion with her job. She knows the law and well presented. I wish many were like her that she put much effort to go out of her way. While in court ...she was well like and respectful, make my case much easier to work with. She stayed with me even to the jailhouse as assured me everything is going to be fine. She knows what questions to be asked, such a smooth transition but after all this was done my case was close and dismissed. I truly recommend her to any client that need direct approaches and knowledge. If she doesn't, she will either learn it or refer someone in that line of work. Very pleased and honor that she Is my attorney!

Excellent Attorney

When I looked for a lawyer to defend my husband's case, Mrs. Mendoza was a court appointed lawyer a few years back in 2011 and that's when I called to see if she would take his case. She always kept me informed. She was specific and realistic about my husband's situation. She was quick in responding... to me and very nice. I highly recommend Mrs. Mendoza. She really cares about her clients and makes a true effort to make the case successful. She kept me and my husband informed through out the whole process. What truly made this attorney special is not only how knowledgeable she is but also that I was able to call her at any hour for reinsurance.
