I am a lawyer. I have known Cynthia for over 20 years, and I have worked with her on various matters over the years. She is highly knowledgeable, professional, ethical, and compassionate.
Cynthia is very professional, compassionate and knowledgeable in her field. She is one of the best Elder Law attorneys in the area and would not hesitate to send a loved one her way.

She is the kind of attorney that gives a bad name to all attorneys. False allegations, malicious prosecutions, misrepresentations in court, over billing and little games like not sending or delaying papers or sending them to the wrong address.
She may have a lot of designations behind her name and volunteer for some committee's and such, but she is a very weak lawyer. In many instances she sends her "Newbie" inexperienced lawyer associates to court for her. Do you want to represented by someone who is just learning?.
In my case she did not even handle a simple restraining order against a person who was representing themselves. Instead recommended to hire some outside attorney from Wilshire Blvd who failed to get the job done. She recommended filing a personal injury lawsuit with absolutely no merit to put pressure on the other side. Despite being a " personal injury attorney" she again punted the case to another firm, yet she tried to charge my Mom's estate almost $10,000 to "Interview litigators" and Co-ordinate strategy. The case was so weak after thousands in attorney bills the plaintiff asked to dismiss his own case.
When potential litigation of the trust came up, again she punted to another firm but still charges to co-ordinate. Why hire her when she isn't up to the job but charges to Co-ordinate? If you have trouble in your family, this attorney will only make things worse not better. You may think you are getting revenge on them and she will certainly help stir up the pot. But in the end she will make things much worse and raise the attorney bills for everyone.
Go hire a real attorney.
I have never met a person with lower personal ethics.
