Cynthia has represented two of our kids in custody cases. She won both cases, and my kids retained custody of their children. Cynthia is direct, smart, and affordable. She is hugely accomplished, and trustworthy. Don’t be discouraged by the blip on her record. It’s was a marginal mistake on her first case. And was resolved. She was the best lawyer we have worked with. And I recommend her to anyone in regards to custody cases. You will not regret having Cynthia on your side. She will be professional, and thorough. If you want to win your case, here is your best shot.

I have been a bystander watching Cynthia succeed in a PRO DAD custody judgment. She cares deeply enough to call even as early as 7 AM to prepare and make sure she is getting the WIN in court. She believes in a FAIR outcome and will protect Men's Parenting Rights. She is EXTREMELY efficient and knowledgeable. She is assertive and kind with a high moral bar for making sure Dad's rights are protected. NO DRAMA and respected by the court. You will not be sorry!

Cynthia is a great attorney and a very caring person. She represented me in a nightmare divorce a couple years back and I was so glad to have her on my side. I would recommend her to any woman looking for compassionate and profession representation.

I went through 4 different attorneys over several years when divorcing a high conflict person - including a couple big name firms in Portland. Cynthia was by far the best of all of them. I divorced a very high conflict person who refused to pay court ordered medical/child support/spousal support, lied all the time, refused to provide discovery, hid money. She also represented my child's best interests in an immediate danger filing. Cynthia is empathetic, listens well, cuts through the bull and is very fair in her billing. Will definitely hire again if ever need an attorney.

A kind, caring and empathetic attorney who is incredibly effective. Cynthia represented me in two separate cases, one of which was large and very complicated. She has also provided consulting on numerous contractual and business administration issues over several years. Cynthia is approachable, direct and honest. She works extremely hard, and I believe cares very deeply for her clients and for their well-being.

Words cannot describe the gratitude that I have for Cynthia. Her sense of professionalism and knowledge of the family courts system is unparalleled to any prior lawyer I’ve consulted. She was thoughtful, considerate and timely throughout the entire process, she kept me attune to all proceedings. Never did I feel out of the loop or like a “Customer” I felt she had my genuine interest in mind and my child’s as well. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking an lawyers assistance with family court proceedings.

I am thrilled to acknowledge this fantastic lawyer. Cynthia helped me through a horrible divorce with intelligent diligent expertise. She is a work horse. She is extremely honest, caring, intelligent and doesn't waste your time or money. Cynthia's communication and expedience is exceptional. I highly recommend Cynthia McNeff for all general law purposes. Her experience, honesty, empathy, and hard work will not disappoint. I have used other lawyers for various things and i can honestly tell you Cynthia is the best.

First off - I have never wrote a review... in my life... about anything. I had a pretty "sticky" ex that could not stop trying to take me to court for something new every time over the past few years. I was referred to Cynthia who swiftly finalized our matter within 5 months, after litigating with the other party for almost 3 years. Due to her expansive experience, she knew just how to put me at ease, and to shut down the other party and his big wig team of attorneys. I had lost hope in most lawyers after the first year of litigating this matter. Most family law attorneys, in my experience, take no pride in the overall outcome of a case and easily will risk the emotional and financial health of their client, the opposing party and the children involved. CYNTHIA is most certainly not most family law attorneys. She answered my questions remarkably fast (always same day) and picked up her phone every time (I got her voicemail once and she called back same day). Overall, I could not recommend her enough. Hands down, she is the queen of Family Law matters and I trust her experience and instincts involving personal/legal matters. Cynthia, thank you! I am grateful to have found you and appreciate all you do for your clients!
