Cynthia is a an amazing attorney. I had an usually hard custody case, filled with numerous obstacles. Cynthia worked extremely hard to turn the best case scenario into the judgement. Cynthia is consummate professional who is dedicated to her clients and her profession. When you hire Cynthia L Petersen, you get an experienced, passionate, and caring attorney. Going through a custody case is a process that is often nerve-wrecking but having an attorney that communicates often, sure makes it easier.
Divorce is not fun. Cynthia can make you smile even while getting a divorce. Very warm-hearted, happy, always energetic and smiling. But in the court room she is what you expect your attorney to be. Cynthia helped me so much, not only by fighting for me in court, but by making me believe that everything will be ok without promising things she couldn't be sure about. Great attorney...I owe her a lot for taking such good care of me. I would recommend her services to anyone who is terrified of going through divorce and confused about attorney hunt on the internet. If you want your attorney to know your name and spend hours explaining things to you, return your phone calls and fight for you...that's Cynthia. And, if you can imagine liking your divorce attorney enough to invite him/her to your wedding? I invited Cynthia. GREAT WOMAN AND GREAT ATTORNEY.
She did amazing work for my boyfriend post divorce. She is fair and absolutely has her clients back. She fought for him and did an amazing job. I don’t think I can say amazing enough and HIGHLY recommend her. She knows her stuff and fights for her client.
Cynthia handled my divorce case with clear explanation of every move that she made and filed case on time. She answered all my questions, and most importantly returned my phone calls in good time. Had the best possible outcome and i cant thank her enough.
Case closed, settled in my favor by a negotiated settlement. Experience with Cynthia exceeded my expectation. Caring, professional and proficient relationship with me and my problem.
I had a contested retirement plan distribution that went to court. Cynthia did an excellent job in researching and preparing for the hearing. We won the argument and I didn't have to pay child support on that distribution. Because of her diligence we won!
Ms. Peterson is an outstanding attorney who is dedicated to working with her clients in the most personable and professional manner I have ever had the pleasure of working with as an Attorney. She truly knows her "stuff" and is sweet, caring and a good listener while always managing to land upon the right solution. She has great insight, advice and guidance and we are so happy with her as our Attorney in the custody case for our daughter. We would highly recommend her for any legal issues you are facing!
Ongoing case that has been very difficult due to opposing counsel. Some downside has been quite a bit of disorganization when it comes to submitting documents to the court. For example, I have made corrections and updates on my parenting agreement 3 times and I keep getting back the one I submitted 18 months ago. Stuff like that is frustrating. For the money people pay, I would expect better organization but this seems to be the norm, unfortunately.
I had hired Cynthia to do work for post divorce. She also was hired for the QDRO's. I did NOT get anything resolved but rather pushed off on someone else in favor of the other party. She doesn't follow through on anything. I blame her for loosing visitation with kids. She does not even deserve to be called an attorney or get one star.
I hired Law Offices of Tedone & Morton, P.C. firm to represent me during my divorce. I initially had Morton whom I hired but some how during my divorce Cynthia was assigned my case. My divorce papers were not done properly. There was laws and verbiage she added that either didn't not pertain to my case ultimately impacted me financially. She does not communicate well and is not organized. She does not understand the law fully and this can impact you negatively. I had to go back to court to try to straight out some of things she did incorrectly. I was also instructed to file a complaint against this firm because of their incompetence. Please be aware of how this firm can financially impact you before you hire them!
