Edward Curley

I've read the other reviews, and every one is on point. Ed is an excellent family, child custody, marriage and prenuptial attorney. The best. So, what can I add? Here you go. He was there for me during all of those things - unfortunately some more than once... We don't get to pick our family... and ...we don't always make good choices... Not the prenup - can't help you there. Here's the thing I can add: Ed was there for me for EVERY TIME I needed a friend that was a lawyer - or the other way around... Personal real estate, when my family in North Carolina was losing their family farm, when something medically really bad happened to me and my husband, when something really bad happened to my daughter and years later a damn federal agent showed up wanting a witness statement... Seriously, who can be prepared for this stuff? Hopefully things like this never happen to you or your family, but if they do; trust me, you really need someone that is thoughtful and has the disposition, experience and temperment help you through these times.

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.
