Great Attorney Highly Recommend
Katelyn helped me with my Child Custody & Support case. She was very honest from the start when it came to advising on how the court would go about certain things. She was very professional and always kept me informed on all matters. Katelyn also would take the time to review emails I was sending on the weekend when she was off of work. She went out of her way and did not have to do so on her time off. She always returned calls & emails promptly. I felt Katelyn was very knowledgeable with court matters. I felt she was 100% looking out for my child's best interest. I would highly recommend Katelyn and would definitely hire her again if needed. She was a pleasure to work with.

It was a long drawn out divorce that didn't need to be. Katelyn did her utmost to keep me where I needed to be. Would obviously recommend her group very highly, but she stood out trying to keep my cost down while giving me the best advice. Thank you Katelyn!!!

I was satisfied and I will high recommend Katelyn and the firm.

Professional representation
Katelyn handled my petition to modify custody in Suffolk County Family Court from beginning to end. She was honest, knowledgeable and courteous. She promptly returned my phone calls and thoroughly answered my questions. My daughters and I were extremely happy with the outcome and we have Katelyn to thank for that.
