Catherine Trelles Casto

Castro says she doesn’t fluff invoices/charges, however, she couldn’t give me a solid reason for upcharges. She billed $780 for a 1 hour in person meeting and charged it as 2.6 hours. She said it was so she could review the case, but had multiple charges for reviewing documents prior to the in person... meeting. We made a parenting plan during that meeting. Then weeks later when she drafted the paperwork she didn’t write them per our plan we made in the meeting. When I asked about the changes on the paperwork she told me the plan wasn’t possible. The plan we made together at her desk. She didn’t give me a reason for why we made the plan, if it wasn’t possible. I then got $600+ in charges for communication and revisions on the plans. We wouldn’t have needed additional communication or revisions if the paperwork was written per the plan we made. I understand paying for time however I don’t think I should pay for time when it was someone else’s mistakes or misjudgments.

I'm very grateful to have Catherine Casto and her assistant Maddie help me through a stressful time in my life. I'm somewhat of a non-confrontational person, but she helped me to understand my rights and fought for me. I'm so glad I had a true advocate on my side. We fixed problems with my previous c...ustody agreement that had been plaguing me and my children for years. Her rates were very reasonable. She is a good listener and responds promptly to messages. I would definitely work with her again if needed.

Catherine Casto is a very good lawyer! She exceeded my expectations. She was very detailed in the deposition with my kids dad. She questioned every decision he has made down to how much his dog’s food cost. She didn’t leave a single detail out. She ALWAYS responded to my emails and phone calls. She n...ever missed a beat with my case. She is easy to talk to and I felt comfortable asking her questions about the case and what certain words mean. She never made me feel dumb or less than. She made sure I knew exactly what I was asking for is what I actually wanted. She was honest when I would ask for something that wasn’t possible or she knew the judge would say no. 10/10 would recommend!

Catherine Casto was the best thing to come my way in 2020, without her I wouldn't have joint custody of my son, and to me that is the best thing I could ever ask. She and her staff treated me fantastically and worked very hard to make sure that I didn't have to see my little boy grow up in pictures a...nd Facebook posts that I wasn't allowed to see. I'm so thankful that I could burst!

I was represented by Catherine Casto recently and to say she is amazing is an understatement! Going into a custody situation knowing that the fate of my child’s future hung in the balance was a desperate feeling but knowing Catherine was at the helm gave me the reassurance I needed to let the justice... system work. She far exceeded my expectations for representation and really cared about my son and myself. She fought for us as if we were her family, we were not just a “client paying by the hour”!! She is so knowledgeable in family law and has a magnanimous confidence and demeanor about her. Catherine is one of a kind and someone I am so proud to have been represented by! Words won’t do justice to describe how appreciative I am for all she and her paralegal Erin did for my son and my family! Honestly, the best of the best!
