Catherine was kind, thorough and very informative of my options during a difficult time of separation. Her response time was quick and counsel was honest, clear and helped me feel empowered to do what was best for me. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of her specialty.

Excellent Family Attorney

My custody case was not heading in the right direction and I needed to a new attorney to represent me. Attorney Pavur was highly recommended to me by my business attorney. Looking back, I wished I had asked my business attorney for a family attorney recommendation right from the start of my case. My ...custody case mattered to Catherine and throughout the process she listened to me, created a path forward and in each step of the way she was professional. I felt like I was her only client and she worked hard to get me a desirable custody resolution. Thank you, Catherine for helping me out when I needed it!

Excellent attorney

Catherine was highly recommended by a friend. She was very professional throughout the process. Her best attributes are communication, timeliness, honesty, and legal knowledge. I will not hesitate to recommend Catherine to anyone.

Thanks Catherine

Hiring Catherine Pavur to guide me through my divorce was undoubtedly one of the best decisions I have made. Catherine guided me though every part of the divorce process with compassion, accuracy, legal expertise, and with an added benefit of being a wonderful person to work with. Her knowledge and... experience made the beginning stages of working through the complexity of detailing, separating, and documenting assets a doable process. At each stage where appearances in court were required her guidance turned those appearances from a dreaded unknown to a reasonably comfortable experience. Her experience and knowledge proved invaluable when I had to go through a deposition where she worked with me and advised me on possible pitfalls that, without her, I most likely would have fallen ignorantly into. In the final stage where the court ordered a mediation process where Catherine watched out carefully and fought for my benefit I must thank her for her advice on every offer and counter offer. For it worked out that in the end, with her suggestions and analysis that I was able to pursue the path that I desired and believe I was meant to follow with very little debt and able to retain sufficient assets needed to pursue that course. My sincerest thanks Catherine.
