I strongly endorse this attorney. Cynthia is able to negotiate tremendous deals for her clients. At the same time, she is not afraid to take a difficult case to trial if the prosecutor is unreasonable. Although Cynthia’s practice focuses primarily upon DUI’s, I have had the opportunity to work with her on very serious felony cases as well. I was extremely impressed with the way she handled those matters. Cynthia knows how to get results.

I endorse this lawyer's work. She is a great lawyer. She, like me, is trained and studied under one of America's greatest and successful trial lawyer. She, like me, attended and successfully completed the Wyoming Trial Lawyer's College for about 3 weeks in 2008 under Gerry Spence. Mr. Spence has never lost a case i n over 25 years. If I were ever in trouble, I would ask Cynthia to represent me. She is dedicated to giving the very best for her client. No client could ask for a better lawyer than Cynthia.
