I would recommend Cindy Trellis Bernstein without hesitation. Cindy handled my divorce case (no children) more than 20 years ago. There was a complicated settlement, which Cindy handled with utmost skill. Many years later I had occasion to hire Cindy again to handle a dispute regarding the divorce settlement. She was even more impressive, if that's possible. Her knowledge of the law, professionalism, attention to detail, response time, and ethics are beyond expectations. I was impressed by her treatment of the opposing attorney as well as the understanding of the case. I would not want to be on the other side of the table from Cindy Bernstein. Recommend highly.
I hired Cindy, after being unhappy with more than one previous attorney. What I really liked and appreciated was the fact that Cindy was always on my side, through some very difficult divorce, custody and support proceedings. She was very compassionate to my circumstances and reassuring through her impressive knowledge of not only the law, but of the local legal surroundings as well. She continues to assist to this day and remains extremely professional and responsive to ongoing issues and needs. I would highly recommend Cindy to anyone going through similar and difficult family issues.
I had the fortune of working with Cindy Bernstein several years ago for divorce and custody issues. To say that my case was a difficult one, is a true understatement. Through it all, Cindy approached every situation with the utmost professionalism and ethical fortitude. She was a true beacon of hope for me and my daughter. She always focused on my daughter's best interest, her safety, and her overall well being. Today my daughter is a vibrant, happy, well-adjusted young lady, all of which would have been possible without the hard-work, dedication, and compassion of Cindy. It is without hesitation, that I recommend Cindy Bernstein!
I have had the great fortune of working with Cindy Berstein, Esq. for 11 years for ongoing issues and concerns of child custody. She has always been caring, professional, accessible, and quickly responsive to any concerns. She advises, mediates, counsels and litigates only as a last resort. She knows the Pittsburgh family law legal system perfectly and can predict how each opposing lawyer or judge might react a priori. When times are tough for me I refer to Cindy as my sleeping pill, or the person to calm me and help my fears during the toughest of times. Cindy is more than my lawyer, she is a friend and a confidant as well. Her knowledge, personal care and passion for your case is priceless and I could not give her a higher compliment. Thank you Cindy.
From my initial consultation through my last court date (a period of several years), Cindy consistently demonstrated her superior knowledge of family law including winning strategies and techniques. Additionally, Cindy worked tirelessly on my case, always putting the well being of my children first and foremost (in both the short- and long-term) while consistently and effectively taking my requests and needs into account. Cindy was a true asset to our lives. Without her I wouldn't have been awarded the custody nor divorce settlements deserved and requested. I wanted to share my positive experience with Cindy to help others who may be in need of a bright, strategic, successful and caring family attorney.
I highly recommend Cindy Bernstein as an Excellent attorney to represent anyone in dealing with the difficult legal issues of their Divorce. During my high conflict divorce, I called Ms. Bernstein numerous times to help with every kind of legal issue as well as other challenges that can be imagined and she was outstanding in resolving them. She was absolutely the Best when it came to helping me with Child Custody. I have told my family, friends, and co-workers about her vast knowledge as an attorney and I will always be thankful to her for all her hard work and dedication as an attorney during my divorce.
I hired Cindy Bernstein for my divorce and custody case after our initial consultation. Her ability to quickly grasp the background information related to my case was very impressive. While working with her I realized that, in addition to her abundant legal competence, she is also a caring and compassionate attorney. Cindy fought for my legal rights as a father and negotiated a very fair and equitable divorce and custody arrangement. I would highly recommend Cindy Bernstein to anyone in need of a very competent family law attorney.
A friend of mine was going through a difficult divorce and was dissatisfied with his attorney. I recommended he schedule an appointment with Cindy Bernstein. After one meeting he was very impressed with Cindy and hired her to handle his divorce and custody case. The final agreement reached was very much to his satisfaction. He said he would highly recommend Cindy to others in need of a very competent family law attorney.
My family law case was very difficult due to unrealistic expectations by my spouse and her attorney. Cindy Bernstein approached all issues in a very practical manner and always had a Plan B. I felt reassured knowing that no matter what outrageous position the other side had, Attorney Bernstein could counter it successfully. Attorney Bernstein is smart, professional, sensible, compassionate, experienced and, if necessary, aggressive. I have complete trust in Cindy Bernstein and feel very confident recommending her as a family law attorney.
I was initially very impressed with Cindy and "her strategy plan" at our consultation. She seemed so positive about the case and had all these ideas on how to handle my case. However, from the moment she was hired, it was as if she was working for the opposing party. She not only didn't follow through on "her strategy plan", but she went as far as encouraging me to give in to most every demand made by OC, even after the opposing party kept switching the terms which we had already agreed upon. Worst of all, she admitted to "gossiping" about my personal details with OC. I plan to file a complaint with the State Disciplinary Counsel.
