Wonderful woman

I went into mediation thinking everything was a loss and Catherine got my son back to me. She stayed in touch with me and talked to me when I really needed it. 100 out of 100 stars from me.

BEST CHOICE EVER!!!!!

Catherine is hands down the best choice, in my opinion, if you’re in need of an attorney for a child custody attorney. I’m so glad my case is done and I definitely couldn’t have done it without her, at all… From the beginning, she helped ease my fears and anxieties and all the things. She was always ...there for me when I had questions or was just having a moment and needed reassurance. She helped me understand the process and make the best possible decisions for me and my daughter to make it through the process. I owe everything to her and am eternally grateful. I will definitely return if I ever need her services in the future and recommending her to anyone I know as well!

I couldn't have done it without Catherine!!!!!

I hired Catherine initially while going through an extremely high conflict divorce. My divorce was finalized late January 2023. By the middle of March 2023 my ex-wife was up to her usual disparaging and hurtful behavior. I had hired Catherine during my divorce and to say that she helped me thro...ughout that process is an extreme understatement! When I met Catherine it didn't take long to discern that she is not like any other attorney I have ever spoken to. Catherine is caring and compassionate; she is thorough and knowledgeable. Due to a simple misunderstanding my ex-wife kept my daughter from me for 5 months. My ex-wife and her attorney fabricated lie after lie. The situation started when I advised my ex-wife that I planned to exercise my parenting time for spring break. I arrived on a Friday in March to begin my parenting time and my ex would not allow me to have my daughter. I called the Columbus police department and they advised me there was nothing they could do; that only the judge could enforce the shared parenting plan. That began 5 months of hell as my poor daughter was once again kept from her father. Catherine fought for me and filed several motions until the heat was enough that the other side started wanting to negotiate. I could not have gone through such a trying time without Catherine by my side. This past week marked the first time in over 5 months that my daughter was with her daddy

Passionate

I had a difficult case and Catherine gave it her all. She was kind, patient, and honest. She is an attorney with morals and integrity, which is very rare. I appreciate her hard work and her outlook on the kids well being. Thank you.

Highly Recommend

I was referred to Catherine by a good friend and I could not have been more pleased with the choice. I was an unmarried/in the process of separating father who didn't understand the custody laws and rights of a man in my situation. Catherine helped me every step of the way with my custody case. Expla...ining laws and how she would work with them and handling every hurdle that came our way. We had to deal with my ex/daughter's mother who was less than cooperative at times and her divorce that was handled poorly made the custody case that much more difficult. It was a handful and a mess. Catherine worked diligently to not only get my rights to my daughter and a plan set in place for that but also worked with my daughter's mother very well in very difficult circumstances. She remained cool and explained the reasons for her actions when needed and ended unneeded chatter when it wasn't forwarding the conversation. She worked with my ex and got a plan in place that worked for everyone. I would highly recommend Catherine to anyone needing not only custody help but any kind of separation or divorce help or advice.
