Stay out of trouble, but if trouble finds you call Cynthia.

As my Attorney Cynthia was amazing. With her guidance, it was easy for me to know when and where and what I had to do. She made it easier for me to navigate through the court proceedings and in the end she kept me out of jail. Thank you and I wish you the best :)

Great experience

I had a great experience working with Cynthia Ignatuk. Her attention to details was second to none. She was very responsiveness, and her outstanding professionalism led to bring me fantastic results in my case. I would highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for top notch representation and you...r your best interest at heart. She will fight for you.

Civil Harassment

Working with Cynthia as she helped my son navigate through a civil harassment case was a positive experience under the circumstances. She helped us understand the process and was effective in explaining it to the court. Even with my law enforcement background it is a completely different ball game ...when you need representation. I would recommend her to family and friends.

Outstanding representation during Civil Harassment Proceedings

Long story short, a neighbor afraid of their own shadow used their wealth to request a civil harassment protection order against a family member. Cynthia was retained at a reasonable cost to address the matter. Cynthia was excellent at conveying facts to the court, removing the emotion from the fa...lse allegations, and ultimately prevailing in the matter.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
