Amazing

She told me it would all work out and it did. The family court process is long and often runs its course. Everything happened just as Catherine said it would and I would recommend her to anyone. I hugged her as I walked out of the courtroom. She told me she didn't understand why all of her clients... hug her instead of shaking her hand. It's because she leaves you feeling that good. She respects you. You will never feel embarrassed or ashamed. She is really that good. She is smart, well spoken and really that good.

Thank you Catherine

I hired Catherine couple years ago for my custody case and she was very supportive. She told me not to worry about anything and handled my case in a professional manner. She represented me in a very professional manner. She is a sweet woman but knows how to spit fire when needed. I would recommend he...r to anyone anytime.

Inquiry

So I don't know much about Mrs. White, never really got the chance. I called her to inquire about a case and before I could explain much detail about anything I was rudely cut off. She launched off into whatever assumption she had developed in her mind which wasn't even close to the reason for my cal...l. Attorney White's website said how she would provide compassionate support, offers understanding and respect, along with affordable rates cause she believes everyone should have access to quality legal defense and not just those with a big bank account. However, in my opinion, I was not met by a compassionate/understanding person. I would have been lucky to feel some even morbid sense of respect but didn't even encounter that. I am looking to not be cut off, be able to give a full understanding of a situation, and be met with compassion so I will keep looking. Now as far as affordable I don't really know. She became to fixated on how I did get to say that my significant other was out of work but seemed to brush off the fact I said how I was not. Not to mention she didn't think what he had to pay into certain things was much at all. But I am a person that knows first hand every penny counts and some amounts of money may not be much to someone but for others it's a hell of a lot. Once again, if I was asked if I would recommend her even though I only spent 20 minutes talking "or shall I say listening" to her than I would say no. Not a very good first impression for me.

Genuine

I couldn't say enough good things about her. She is genuine and she gets things done fast. I first saw her worried and afraid. She promised me that i had nothing to worry about and repeatedly told me i had nothing to worry about. She was right.

Former client

She is a class act. She worked very hard and she knows her stuff. She is very sweet but dont let that fool you. She is a feist little powerhouse. You need to keep us with her though because shes pretty busy and is often spread thin. She also has a unique ability to make everything all-right. She is... calming and soothing in her demeanor and YOu will feel very comfortable with her.
