Edward Curley

I was referred to Ed Curley by a friend during an extremely difficult time in my life Over 10 years ago. Ed took the time to understand my situation and guided me legally through a process that I knew nothing about. In a time when life was overwhelming, Ed made sure my best interests were covered. ... Ed earned my respect through his professionalism, his responsiveness and his thorough handling of my legal needs. Since that time, I have returned to Ed for family and real estate legal assistance.

Mr. Curley is professional, reliable, and moral. He made me feel safe and well-cared for as I went through a rather contentious divorce. Mr. Curley and his secretary, Ms. Ferris, are prompt to reply as questions arise throughout the legal process--even outside of office hours. I appreciate his har...d work throughout my case and have recommended him to two of my closest friends who were in need of a family lawyer.

In 2011, I was in a desperate need of a family attorney and had no idea who to turn to. I then reached out to my friends in the Dover, DE area if they knew who the best family attorney in the area was. Later on that evening, over 95% of the responses came back indicating that Edward Curley was the ...one I need. I then took a chance and made that call to his office and that was the first and last call I’ve ever had to make regarding a family attorney. Curley, Dodge & Funk, LLC have been by my side for over 9 years and have assisted my with various issues dealing with various Child Custody related matters that have gotten worse over the years. Not giving up, Mr. Curley has always been by my side, given me sound advice, and even corrected me when my approach was completely wrong. Due to Mr. Curley’s persistence, professionalism, and honesty, I can now say that I have primary placement of my son and he now resides with me and my girlfriend, in another state, attending a prestigious private school in the Baltimore area. I highly recommend Mr. Curley for all of your family attorney needs. Please give him 30 minutes of your time and I’m 100% positive, that you too, would have made the right choice in selecting him as YOUR family lawyer!

After a recommendation, I engaged Mr. Curley’s services after over a decade of contentious and high-conflict custodial matters. My only regret in working with Mr. Curley is that I hadn’t gone to him years earlier. Mr. Curley is highly knowledgeable and experienced. His mastery and understanding o...f family law is unparalleled—and I speak from a place of having worked with several excellent lawyers within the area over the years. The mark of a true expert, Mr. Curley educates and informs of the relevant legal information to the situation in terms clearly explained and easily understood, so that I was never left confused by legalese or lacked the information necessary to make choices or take action. A consummate professional, he was always on time (or early) for appointments, hearings, paperwork, and was extremely responsive to both common queries and more extenuating circumstances where I needed guidance immediately. His level of professionalism, responsiveness, and outstanding ability also extends to the staff within his office, especially Elaine. On a more personal note, when I first began working with Mr. Curley I was both emotionally and physically exhausted from the ongoing legal situation and often fearful of what I perceived as possible results of the situation. Mr. Curley brought a caring, human element where I believed, and still believe, he truly and genuinely cared for both me and my family. His compassion coupled with his knowledge of the law served to diffuse and calm my emotional state while his competence readily tackled my legal one. If you even think you may need a lawyer, call Mr. Curley immediately. Save yourself from my many years of turmoil by simply engaging the very best from the start.
