Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

Her name is Cynthia Ann Miller.  She lives in Hinsdale.  I’ve been meaning to write about this crooked attorney for awhile now.  I was given her name from someone who said that she “helps women in need”.  I was in divorce proceedings with my ex.  I called her and she said she does “help women in need” and agreed to take my case so we met briefly at her Downers Grove office and I gave her paperwork about my case.  I even brought my children with me to the office since I couldn’t afford a babysitter so I was not there for very long. 

 She told me to bring $1,000 in cash with me (of which I did and of which I scrambled to get together) because she said that she had been screwed over in the past.  The only problem with that scenario is that SHE in fact is the one who screws people over NOT the other way around.  

The night before I was to go to court she called and said she was not going to go to court after she took my $1,000 cash the day before.  You can imagine my surprise. I called her after that asking for my money back since she didn’t fulfill what she agreed to do (that of go to court for me and represent me).  I asked her what she was going to do about it and she said “well, I’ll have to refund your money then”.  When I tried to call or stop by her office she was never there.  It was as if she was dodging my calls and keeping her office door locked so I could never get in to see her in order to get my money back.  I tried to send her a letter but that too went ignored and I never heard back. 

When we had met, she gave me a receipt in her writing that I in fact gave her the $1,000 cash.  There should be no reason why she should not refund me my money.  She was never my attorney of record.  She basically took my money and pocketed it for herself.  Can you imagine the audacity?  Not to mention this terribly unethical behavior for an attorney to just steal someone’s money by saying to bring cash and then call and say they are not going to court after all and then never return your money after that?!

To this day she has never refunded me my $1,000.  It wasn’t as if she did anything in the case.  She never even went to court for me!  And this is a woman who supposedly “helps women in need?”, more like steals from them and robs them blind is more like the accurate description of it.  When you’re an attorney, this is someone who is supposed to be an officer of the court?, more like an officer should have her arrested her for theft!

I called the ARDC to report her and gave them her name and they told me these are exactly the type of people we need to hear of, those that prey on others.  Beware of this crook of an attorney.  I see that she (Cynthia Ann Miller) has already been written up previously most likely by the ARDC.  Here is what the avvo site says.  “This lawyer has been disciplined by a state licensing authority”.  Maybe I should also go to the ARDC too and finally report her and she could be written up yet again for unethical behavior?  What do you think?  The review I read said “she gladly took my money”.  Gee, it sounds like a familiar situation to mine.

I know she’ll remember me when she sees my name.  I am hoping she does the honest and honorable thing and refunds me my money.  If not, I will keep this post up forevermore as to my personal experience with her and to warn you not to hire this attorney or do business with her.  She has offices in Hinsdale on Lincoln St., Ogden Ave. in Downers Grove, Iroquois Ave. in Naperville and Clark St. in Chicago. All these offices and she's stealing money from me?!

If she does refund me my money I will let you know that she in fact refunded me my money but there is no excuse for this fraud on her part to go on for as long as it did.  She had my address.  She could have researched it and looked it up in the court files. She could have sent me a check in the mail when she called me and told me that she would not be representing me or was not showing up for court.  Better yet, she could have had me come to her office and could have given me my original $1,000 cash back!  I am still so stunned that she said she’d take the case then called and said she wouldn’t and then wouldn’t or hasn’t given me my money back yet!

Here I was a “woman in need” and she took advantage of that fact and stole my money and then dodged me after that.  I am going to send her this post and let her know that I have posted this article in ripoffreport.com.  If I don’t hear from her, I like to write and will probably write about my experience on google and yelp and wherever else in addition to the ripoffreport site.  The internet is a powerful resource. The ripoffreport site is excellent.

I am going to send/fax/email her my name, updated address and my email and see if she does the right thing and finally sends me a $1,000 check.  She should probably actually pay me more for interest and pain and suffering if she was honorable.  I will keep you posted as to what happens.  In the meantime, I have still been ripped off by this unethical attorney to this day and am hoping that she does the right thing and “helps this woman in need” by refunding me my original, rightful money!  After all, it is the right and ethical thing to do in her line of work or any line of work!
