Cindy Smith has been my attorney for several years and I would highly recommend her services. She is knowledgeable, goes above and beyond the call of duty and gets results in difficult situations. Cindy helped me navigate through a very trying divorce. She also has represented a family member in highly contested custody proceedings. Cindy timely responds, is very professional and is highly respected by the bench and bar.

Critical: Professionalism, ResponsivenessI had an absolutely horrible experience. When someone is facing a divorce after 25 years of marriage , having a lawyer that disregards, puts off , ignores calls and emails along with many other unprofessional qualities , it’s hard to imagine. I expected professionalism, and I did not get that. After giving her 30,000 which I did not have, absolutely nothing had been in over a years time. I decided ti seek counsel elsewhere. I had a better outcome that I ever could have expected. I wrote a letter requesting funds be returned and was ignored. Finally, after deciding to seek help by reporting this , 5,000 was returned to me. Cindy kept over 20,000 and did absolutely nothing . My new lawyer wasn’t even half as expensive and did the most thorough job I could ever imagined. I highly recommend not using her services.I had an absolutely horrible experience.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, ValueMy life changed over a very short period of time when I was suddenly faced with divorce proceedings. The man I was with for 35 years had betrayed my trust, so I found it hard to trust anyone anymore. I reached out to Attorney Smith at the advice of some associates. She had a very good reputation in word of mouth terms. At my most downtrodden, Smith fought for me harder than I had ever experienced. She was professional, earnest, and deeply caring. During divorce proceedings, my husband’s attorney chose to personally attack my character. In contrast, Smith never made a personal attack, and instead used her knowledge and understanding of the law to help me. I was able to leave that court, feeling that I was properly represented by a serious lawyer. She never used theatrics or misinformation to get ahead.When dealing with something as emotional as the end of a marriage, it is easy to become afraid and make choices based on emotion. Smith let me make my decisions, but she gave me enough information and time so that those decisions were never made in fear. The court system is massively complex and it is easy to become overwhelmed by that. At times, I was emotional and afraid, but Smith always helped me feel safe and secure that my case was being handled. She is known to be very busy lawyer, but she gives all her clients her full attention. Her integrity, kindness, professionalism, and honesty have been a great example on how to deal with an aggressive and difficult situation that was forced on my by the opposing side. I received a settlement that will allow me to live a good, dignified life. On the final day of proceedings I looked at her and told her, “you believed in me.” She responded that she always will. All things considered, Cindy is one of the people who have had the most influence on the way I lived my life. She will always remain an answered prayer during my one of my weakest times.My life changed over a very short period of time when I was suddenly faced with divorce proceedings.

Horrible and unprofessional, too busy “training” a legal aide to deal with the case she was paid for. Do not go to her at all costs. She does not do her job or follow up.

Just walked out of the final hearing on a multiple day divorce proceeding; and wanted to give a true and accurate review of Mrs. Smith’s performance. When I began searching for a divorce attorney, I read many Google reviews and noticed that so many reviews were biased by there settlement in the divorce (whether favorable or unfavorable).

Could not agree more with the previous reviews, exactly as they describe. She made me want to seek another attorney to sue her for her services, or lack thereof, and based on the ethical responsibilities of attorneys, I could have probably won. Utterly awful representation, she was on her phone the entire time during my mediation while the other attorney grilled me and purposefully tried to frustrate me, all while the moderator didn’t control the session/situation. Extremely disorganized, I had to remind her about issues regarding my case multiple times; requested by email/phone for answers to the same questions multiple times (which costs money); had to give her my phone number several times because she didn’t have it; billing notification was confusing and misleading after I was told in the beginning “not to worry, we’ll charge you the remaining balance at the end”, I was then charged late fees without knowing and when I called to refute the late charges, she dropped me as a client due to break down in “attorney/client relationship”. Typical car salesman in her office, talks a great game, with absolutely zero follow through.

One of my worst experiences ever, I was reluctant to even give this business a full star. Cindy did nothing for my case except tried to drag it out to collect more attorney fees. Their communication in this office is horrible and they over charge you. My ex-husband whose attorney done all the work and drew up all the ppwk paid was charged $1300 less. Very disappointed as she knew I was struggling from the time I walked in her office and she does not care. Complete waist of time because at the end she withdrew from my case.

Fantastic in my cases I needed her twice for same issue about 10 years apart. Last time I used her she was opening up a new office. She told me come by take a look at her office sometime which I found very kind especially since I have never been in the high social or economic level and if I had to by water with my looks well I might be bit thirsty naw average joe that’s me which usually don’t get those kind of invites. Fine work my case known as the mans attorney for divorce cases

Cynthia Smith was the GAL on our case and took an unbelievable number of months to follow-up with even the therapist, failed to show-up for a status hearing, failed to contact both sides of the parties, and in many cases simply showed bias and a lack of integrity as an attorney. Also lied in her report. This woman should not only be removed as a GAL to the court, but shouldn’t even be allowed to practice law.
