Posted by Yvonne | June 25, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

If I could give 1,000 stars, I would.

The words given to us are not nearly enough to explain just how special, professional and caring Cindy is. She helped me with my divorce and custody battle and turned everything around for me just when I could no longer fight back. The help and guidance she provided me was truly amazing. My hope w...as almost gone until she came along. She went above and beyond. I've never come across a lawyer like her. Who truly works for the client and not so much the pay. She is remarkable! I will always recommend her. You will not be disappointed.

a lawyer who changed my life

my divorce was a looong, hard, crazy and painful process which I don't even want to recall anything of it again. but I still have to say having Cindy as my lawyer was the BEST part of it and the most correct decision I have ever made. Cindy, as a person, is amazing. She values honesty, integrity, emp...athy and professionalism. She treats you like you are a VIP client (well, actually I was charged with a fairly reasonable fee) and cares about you with deep understanding. She always thought things ahead of me, worried about me and encouraged me when I experienced mental breakdown or difficulties with unbelievable patience. I am 100% sure without her support and help, I would never ever have survived all these and reached to the point that I finally can enjoy the freedom and peaceful life I deserve. I don't know if there is another job like Cindy is doing can tremendously change a woman's life. Thanks to Cindy for giving me second chance to live a good life.

Attorney who listens empathetically

Cindy is full of wisdom that comes from years of practice. Yet, she remains approachable and respected me as a person capable of making my own decisions that impact my life. Cindy kindly guided me through the labyrinth of legal procedure when I was overwhelmed by uncertainty and despair from seeing m...y children only sporadically. Thanks to her support, I have an equitable parenting plan. While other attorneys command, Cindy actively listens and supports me when I need to make critical decisions in my case. In Cindy, I found an enlightened attorney.

A for Awesome, Advocate, A-1 Attorney!

Cindy Wysocki was highly recommended to me by a former co-worker who had custody/parenting issues. She was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when we were frustrated, and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. Not only was she able to help us reach a reasonable and solid ...parenting plan; her calm, confident, and empathetic demeanor offered emotional support and strength to me and my family. We are especially impressed with her transparency, integrity, and willingness to fight for my rights as a father. I am eternally grateful for her service and I hereby recommend Ms. Wysocki without reservation.

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.
