Phenomenal from start to finish

Catherine was phenomenal. I came to her feeling completely defeated and hopeless. My former attorney was a nightmare. Unprepared, unwilling to listen, and completely took advantage of me are only a few of the adjectives I could use to describe him. Catherine immediately heard my case and was conf...ident. She listened and acknowledged my concerns. She even asked for my feedback with things. She took what was one of the worst times in my life and completely guided me through it. She promised me she would get this resolved and in my favor quickly. Needless to say, she came totally prepared for meditation and defended me against my ex husband and his counsel. She would not budge on our demands. She had proof to validate all our points. If you are looking for a divorce attorney who is also knowledgeable in real estate law, do not hesitate to contact her. Thank you for helping me move on with my life

Incredible attorney and highly recommend!!!

Catherine was referred to me by a friend and even though she was 45 min from me, I was so glad to have her and worth every minute and penny. (Which was beyond reasonable too.) I just bought my 1st house and needed a real estate attorney. I knew next to nothing about the process of what it takes to ...actually close on a house, but Catherine answered all of my 100 questions I had and was good at explaining it. She is beyond professional and knowledgeable, very sweet, but also doesn’t mess around and fights hard, which you don’t usually find all 4 of these qualities together. Never once did I ever even have a problem reaching her, (try that with another attorney!), and her paralegal, Sharon, is awesome as well! She also knew most of the answers to my questions and kept me in the loop every single step of the way. Catherine totally had my back when it came to the contract, putting in what was needed to benefit me and also explaining it [again] each step of the way. Honestly, I can’t thank her enough, but would refer her to anybody needing an attorney for real estate, family law or matrimonial. I will 100% use her again!!

Outstanding!

Catherine Dominici is a shark. She goes over and beyond for her clients. When there is a problem, she does not back down or waiver. It does not matter how long she has to battle; she gets it done. Catherine was my attorney in a child custody battle. Sadly, my ex was in no position to be a parent to m...y 3 children. It was a very unsafe and unhealthy environment for them. Long story short, Catherine got the job done. I have sole custody of my children without visitation.(which sounds terrible but in this situation anything else would of been unacceptable). She was on my side, well my childrens side 100%. She truly cared for the well being of my children. I have never met an attorney with so much dedication and compassion such as hers. She was always there for us. She was very reasonable with her costs and her office staff was just as amazing as she was. Whenever anyone asks me if I know a lawyer that I can recommend, there is only one and that is Catherine. She is truly one in a million.

Your Next Real Estate Attorney

I have worked with many attorneys. This is the first one I have written a recommendation for. My wife and I learned to trust Catherine on our first encounter. While family, friends, and agents were all telling us what we wanted to hear, she was the only one telling us what we needed to hear. Throu...gh her advice and counsel, we were able to navigate a challenging situation. Since then, she has also provided successful counsel on a tenant eviction, as well as an unusual home sale. The result is that she has never let us down. She listens to the challenges, provides sound feedback, and is there for you. She is also polite, polished, but isn't afraid to throw a punch or two when needed. Catherine is my first pick for any NY Real Estate transaction and I would highly recommend her for yours as well. She is clearly someone you want on your side.

She understood me

When I came to Catherine's office I had met with several attorneys and couldn't find the person who I thought would do a good job. Catherine was it, she showed compassion, sympathy and understood my problems. She was focused on my case, and did a job that I thought no one could do. She got me cust...ody of my kids, and although my husband and his attorney were difficult to work with she forged ahead, and did an amazing job. I recommend anyone who is having a hard time finding the right attorney give the Law Office of Catherine Dominici a call. You will not regret it.
