About Cindy Spindler
Cindy Spindler Manning took a direct path into courtroom practice. She earned her J.D. from Boston University School of Law in 2002 after beginning law studies in 1999, concentrating on litigation and alternative dispute resolution. That early emphasis on conflict resolution informed the work that followed.
Her first role out of law school was as a litigation associate at Sutherland. She moved into public service in 2005 as an assistant district lawyer in the Griffin Judicial Circuit District Lawyer's Office, where she handled criminal filings and courtroom proceedings for the local jurisdiction. After that spell in the prosecutor's office she returned to private practice as a litigation associate at Alston & Bird LLP in 2007. The variety of matters at a national firm broadened her experience on both civil and criminal fronts.
Manning entered firm partnership ranks in 2012 when she joined Manning, Levine & Marlow, LLP as a partner. Two years later she was a partner at Manning Peace, LLC, continuing to handle contested matters at trial and in alternative dispute settings. Over more than two decades she has moved between public service and private practice, carrying courtroom experience from one role to the next.
Her career shows steady engagement with litigation and dispute resolution. Early academic choices and successive positions — from associate roles to partner — point to practical courtroom work and negotiation. She remains active in professional circles and holds current memberships in relevant legal organizations.
Colleagues describe her as pragmatic in approach. She favors clear strategies in court and in settlement discussions. That practicality echoes her time in a prosecutor's office and later at large and boutique firms. The combined experience gives her familiarity with trial procedure, motion practice, and mediated settlements.
Today she practices at Manning Legal Group, LLC. Clients consult her for matters that require litigation experience and options for resolving disputes outside the courtroom. She continues to try cases and to pursue negotiated resolutions, drawing on years of work in both public and private practice. Her current practice centers on litigation and alternative dispute resolution.
