Excellent!

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 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

Divorce when spouse in different country

Attorney White is amazing. She took time to understand my situation. I was married in India and my husband now my ex lives in India, I am in US with my 2 kids. She explained me details of the situation and urgency to serve him here in US when he visits for a very short period of time, with her help I... was able to serve him in NY just before he was about to leave the country. She also helped me with the venue waiver I accidentally filed my case in Franklyn county but I am a resident of union. I will definitely recommend Attorney White for handling your divorce case or someone's you know

SHE'S NOT "JUST" AN ATTORNEY...SHE'S MUCH MORE!!!!

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!!!!!

Look no further!!!!!

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!
