Bulldog in the courtroom!

I needed a strong attorney to go up against my ex, she knocked it out of the park! I got everything I wanted, even more child support than originally expected. She handled my case with care and her office/paralegal were always very fast to respond. I cannot thank them enough!

100% Would Recommend & Use 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!

Devastating Results

We hired Mrs. Castro to litigate a modification of visitation case as a result of child abuse. She filed the suit in the wrong court jurisdiction and never told us. On the morning of trial she pushed for a pretrial compromise to avoid dismissal and litigated only a late child support issue that no o...ne cared about. In the courtroom she was totally unprepared. The case was dismissed and, as a result, the children are still in danger. We paid over half again as much for absolutely nothing as we paid another attorney for the successful custody case.

Replied last January 21, 2018

The overwhelming majority of my clients are very satisfied with the legal services that I provide. While I understand that the cases with which I help clients are overwhelming and stressful, my clients are always kept in the loop, given options and advised of the risks. I strive for the best outcome given the facts of the case.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
