Catherine Mary White

Mrs. White will go ABOVE and Beyond for her clients, she goes out of her way to work with you through every situation, scenerios ect. Mrs. White will be very raw and straight foreward with you yet being kind, laying down the possibilities. My case was very complex and not a easy one. She has been ver...y paitent with me and had worked my case even through the holes and difficulties. Mrs. White never gave up on me and gave me the confidence to continue on with my case. Her personality is very easy going, but at the same time her determination is unmatched. I highly reccomend her and in the case future issues arise I would happily hire her again !

I would have not gotten through this very nasty and long drawn out divorce if it had not been for Catherine. This was a 2 year process and I wanted to quit and just take nothing because it was becoming so draining and attacking my mental health. Catherine would not let me give up on myself and what ...I deserved. She was real and authentic, she didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, she told me the TRUTH. She has compassion and definitely quiets the myth that all attorney's are awful. She's a gem!!!! Her spirit is contagious. I didn't feel like I was talking to my attorney, I felt like I was talking to a friend or a really close family member. She made me feel this way while maintaining her professionalism and you can be taught that in law school. She fought hard for me with no complaints or hesitation. If I could recommend her anybody going through this very hard time I would in a heartbeat. If you get her to represent you consider yourself blessed. Thank you so much Catherine, for everything!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are a Rock Star!!!!!

I just finalized a divorce that lasted almost 2 years. My divorce was extremely high conflict! I had everything including the kitchen sink thrown at me. I hired Catherine with approximately 3 months remaining before the divorce was finalized. If only I had hired her sooner. I went through two previou...s attorneys and they did nothing but take my money. Catherine was cool calm and collected throughout the entire process. Catherine was thorough and professional and explained things before they happened and also as they were happening. Save yourself time and money and give Catherine a call!

I wish the original review I drafted on my phone saved, so here's a shot at it again. Undoubtedly - Catherine is a great advocate for mothers too - but this is specifically written for fathers. I was referred personally to four separate attorneys and consulted all four before retaining Catheri...ne. Four. I am sure the other's knew the law and we're good referrals, but I didn't feel a connection back from any of them. They felt very uninterested in my matter and frankly, too busy for more. I walked into Catherine's office and minutes into our conversation, knew that we'd be a great team. Catherine was not only excellent at family law (as other reviews show) - she was an advocate through and through for me as the father. Understanding that I gave up my rights not long before we started working together still, she persisted with great confidence and when needed, unwavering guidance. I do not think I would have accomplished all we did (including avoid trial) without her extensive practice and knowledge of family law. It's confusing, it's not in favor of us father's, and it is mentally taxing which then can be physically damaging. Once on a path forward - I felt the weight of concern be lifted - this process is, A LOT OF WORK. YOU HAVE TO DO IT TOO (I am also recovering from alcohol and drug addiction). Before I couldn't even talk to my ex without extreme frustration and conflict. With Catherine's path, I felt that I had the confidence to begin to discover what co-parenting might look like. The Court's do not like these cases to "linger" back and forth, so you do not have time to sit, wait, and hope time will heal. It will not in this case. That's why it is required to have someone (like Catherine) who is educated well on the matter, connected (not in the pulling favors sense, but familiar to how magistrates will favor or react to certain actions and motions based on her time working locally in our courts), and a good judge of character. If you are clear, truthful, diligent, and really care of the fair and equitable interests of your children then you have found a perfect ally in the journey to settle whatever family matter you carry. I have -a path- to a future with my children - a path toward shared parenting rights, and an amazing future for my children, with me, their father in their lives. We're headed to a LONG weekend together this weekend, for the first time in several years. Bless. PS- [reminder] Just as a "consumer" of professional services myself, like those of attorney's - be respectful. Learn the importance of practicing mindfulness and patience. YOU are seeking someone for THEIR expertise, lay down your personal baggage at the door and let the person you are seeking for professional services do what they are passionate about and good at.

"If you pray don't worry, if you worry don't pray" this is what I'd say when things didn't go as planned and with working during a pandemic, while schools were changing from in class learning to virtual learning, Catherine was right there every step of the way. Some years ago I had the privilege o...f hiring Catherine to work on my shared parenting arrangement for my daughter; she did a wonderful job. I did not expect her experience and foresight handling cases such as mine to allow her to bring me such peace of mind when dealing with the court system. As a man I have always heard horror stories about "getting the courts involved," and living in Ohio Father's rights (seems to me) to be less than the Mothers. So when I say that all I had was a hope and a prayer because I knew nothing of what I was getting involved in I mean that, however Catherine was there every step of the way. Emails, text messages, phone calls, zoom meetings, face to face, however I needed to be contacted she was there. When opposing counsel was making things difficult, she went out of her way to ensure that things got complete in a timely manner which I truly thank her for. My experience with my case being handled by Catherine has been truly amazing and I am thankful that the City of Columbus has someone like her who is passionate about what she does serving it's constituents. Catherine White is worth her weight in gold and I would hire her again, for a third time if I was searching for a lawyer.
