Broadfoot Attorneys at Law

Cynthia Broadfoot came highly recommended — several friends had used her as their divorce attorney, and another friend, herself a lawyer, told me she refers all divorce inquiries to Cindy for her skill and consistent advocacy. Even with those glowing recommendations, Cindy's work on my case exceeded my expectations. She has a deep understanding of divorce law in Vermont and quickly grasped the nuances of my complex situation. Rather than letting me get lost in unnecessary worry, she kept me focused on priorities and next steps, clearly explaining where I stood under Vermont law and precedent. That clarity gave me quick confidence in her strategy and judgment. Cindy also follows current court judgments closely, which let her compare my case to similar ones. This proved valuable in mediation, and would have been just as useful had the matter gone to court. What I didn't expect — and came to value immensely — was Cindy's skill as a listener. We spent many hours discussing the marriage, the subtleties of the case, and our strategy, and I always felt she respected my perspective. She had a real gift for quickly assessing the relevant facts and evidence, helping me see which strategies would lead to the best outcome. She never overpromised, but consistently gave me sound counsel through some very challenging negotiations. She was equally skilled on the practical side, efficiently sifting through volumes of financial evidence, identifying the critical elements, and using them to build grounded legal arguments. Ultimately, the strength of that case, combined with her approach to the opposing lawyer, helped us reach a fair settlement rather than leaving this contentious matter for a judge to decide. From the start, Cindy accurately assessed the situation and set realistic expectations — and in the end, nearly everything she told me upfront was spot on. Beyond her legal expertise, she was easy to work with, always clear, and genuinely compassionate. Her authentic care meant I never felt alone during one of the hardest periods of my life. Along with her legal assistant, Jenifer Keser, the Broadfoot Law team was always responsive to my concerns. The legal expenses were transparent, well documented, and fair. I cannot recommend Cindy Broadfoot and the team at Broadfoot Law more highly. Cindy is not only an outstanding lawyer and powerful advocate, but — just as important — a truly kind and decent person. I am so grateful and fortunate to have had Cindy on my side during this very contentious divorce.

I consulted with Attorney Broadfoot twice. Her office was responsive, and Cindy herself was available, knowledgeable, and attentive. She presented her recommendations clearly and methodically. There was no charge for the initial consultations, and she explained her fee structure for future work. It was evident why she came highly recommended, and I would also suggest her to families looking for a professional who provides careful listening and sound advice in any legal matter.

My family retained Cindy Broadfoot for my daughter's divorce and a recent need to change the visitation status of the original decree from four years ago. Cindy helped us navigate contentious behavior from the opposing side, and helped us not lose sight of what our goals were. She was quick to answer our calls and emails. Both cases were stressful and difficult; yet, we got the results we wanted each time. Taking legal action is expensive and emotionally draining; with Cindy on our side we got the results we wanted, and felt cared for during the process.

I recently worked with Cindy and her team on divorce related matters and they were an excellent team to work with. I felt well informed and fully supported through the whole process. Both Cindy and Deborah took time to answer all of my questions while working quickly and efficiently to move things forward. I felt like these women understood where I was coming from and validated my feelings through some very tough times. I would highly recommend this law firm to anyone that is seeking legal assistance for custody and divorce/separation.
