Cynthia Ribas

My wife and I have known Cynthia Ribas for many years. She’s been our family attorney for over two decades, and over that time we’ve entrusted her with our most complex and consequential legal business, including reviewing contracts, setting up our loan-out corporation and putting our family trust in... place. These are complicated pieces of business for lay people, and we didn’t only bring them to Cynthia because she’s superbly well versed in the relevant law. Just as important to us, I think it’s fair to say, has been her patience and good cheer in explaining the intricacies of legal practice to us. She has a gift for explaining legal concepts in a way that’s clear and comprehensive. She also — and this has come through in every conversation we’ve ever had with her about legal business — loves, loves, loves the law. We trust Cynthia; we respect her judgment, which is always sound and prudent; and we’ve learned so much from her about how the law works in people’s lives. We can’t imagine having navigated our legal affairs of the last 20 years without her.
