Attorney Cindy Rendon is the founder and owner of Rendon Law Firm, PLLC. She has over 27 years of experience. Over the course of her legal career, Ms. Rendon has gained a reputation for her compassion and integrity when dealing with her clients as well as her unwavering resolve to help them achieve their goals and the positive outcomes they seek as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible. To that end, she prefers mediation and collaborative law to help her clients resolve their conflicts and reach favorable agreements without the expense and stress of court battles. However, she will not hesitate to take her clients' issues to court when necessary.
Ms. Rendon has been called the "velvet hammer" by clients because she is an effective lawyer - she doesn't scream, bully, or otherwise engage in “scorched‑earth” tactics. Instead, she thinks strategically about her cases and puts her clients in the best position to obtain a favorable outcome. She began her legal career working as an assistant district attorney. Later, she entered private practice where she defended insurance companies, product manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies in catastrophic personal injury cases. Her courtroom background and experience in complex civil litigation give Ms. Rendon an advantage when representing clients, whether in personal injury or family law matters.
