Edward Curley

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.

I have worked closely with Ed Curley over the past 18 months while he was representing me in my divorce, custody and child support matters. At the conclusion, Ed was able to produce results that benefited both my children and my financial position. In regards to custody, my ex-spouse wanted to remove... our children from the state of Delaware without my approval. The case resulted in me being able to maintain shared placement position with my children and she could not relocate out of state. Ed was able to take a lot of information I provided to him for the custody case and systematically demonstrate the reason the children should not be taken away from their father and how I deserved equal time with them. Ed has a great understanding of the Delaware family court system. Although, it was never discussed specifically, I feel Ed has a good relationship with courts and other attorneys which helps him to do the best work he can for his clients. Working with Ed, one can expect every step to completed in a timely manner. I even found Ed to stay well ahead of critical dates. Also, one can expect prompt responses when a specific question arises that needs immediate attention. Ed was proactive at moving the process forward, often driving the ship versus being dragged behind it. The legal representation Ed provided delivered great results with a fair cost structure. His professionalism, prompt operating practices and legal knowledge provided me with a level of confidence that I knew things were going to work out the best for my children and myself during a time which we had no control over a difficult and life changing situation.
