After a grueling, expensive experience with 2 other lawyers on the same issue I finally got a referral from a friend to get help from Cindy Diggs. Cindy told me to stop worrying- she was there to help. Not only did she untangle the mess the other lawyers caused, she solved my problem quickly and cost effectively. I will always recommend Cindy Diggs to anyone going through complicated family legal issues.
