Cynthia M. Jordano

Partner at Cohen Ziffer Frenchman & McKenna

Focusing her practice on every stage of insurance recovery cases, Cindy Jordano also advocates for clients in commercial cases, including complex litigation, contract disputes, securities actions, and business fraud. She represents a wide range of organizations in state and federal venues, as well as in arbitration. Although Cindy’s practice spans the country, she maintains a New York emphasis.

Cindy finds it highly gratifying to represent policyholders as they attempt to maximize their insurance, an important business asset, for which they paid substantial premiums. Most people can relate to the frustration of having claims denied, and Cindy draws on her litigation experience, knowledge, and skills in handling these disputes on a large, sophisticated level. She gets to know every detail of the underlying claims so clients can recover what they deserve.

Cindy believes that the best way to gain favorable results is by approaching all cases as if they will ultimately be heard by a judge or jury—and then making them trial-ready with thorough strategic preparation. Because each matter involves complicated language and legal concepts, she simplifies the facts and then presents them clearly and persuasively.

Previously, Cindy clerked in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and practiced law at a leading New York litigation firm, where she handled a broad spectrum of cases, including antitrust, bankruptcy litigation, and shareholder disputes. These experiences gave her an in-depth understanding of all types of litigation, and this insight has strengthened her practice immeasurably.
