Stressful, but made it through
I've known Ms. Catharine Venzon since law school and because of her diligence, professionalism and passion with the law even then, I knew that she was the person to reach out to many years later in my time of legal need. Early on she made me feel at ease with my matter, worked with me on all accounts and helped to smooth over a very complicated and stressful situation in my life. Most notable, Ms. Venzon is all about quick resolution while protecting your best interest and, (something we all pray for), she REALLY CARES about you as a client.

Custody Battle
The difficulty of a Custody issues can be stressfull...but Ms. Venzon was the answer to all of my legal needs. If you want a PIT-BULL of a lawyer fighting for you, then you hire Ms. Venzon. She is extremely skillful, witty, and brilliant in the courtroom. She makes you feel very comfortable about your case and doesn't give off that sleazy, "Im in it for the money" feel that some lawyers will give you. She goes into every case like she has something to prove, and she proved it well to me. She's my Lawyer!!....and I would recommend her to anyone I know. SHE'S A GOOD BET!!

Solid
I have always been a person that felt I could handle things on my own and take care of myself. But sometimes in life we are thrown a curveball that nothing could have prepared us for. It is important to recognize your own limits and not be afraid to reach out for help. I found that help at the Venzon Law Firm. Catharine took to my side like an armed bodyguard and led me through legal perils I wasn't even aware existed. She wants to win for you. But even more, care about your well being. She is a ferocious advocate and make your concerns her own. If you're looking for someone to sugar coat your reality, she is not for you. But to those of you who have been on that roller coaster, you can be confident that with a clear mind and a steady hand, Catharine will take that ride with you.
