Catherine Mary White

"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.

My mother applied for emergency custody and legal custody of my daughter under false allegations. I am a mother of 3, one daughter (11) and two sons (3 and 10mths). My mother showed no care or concerns for my sons, she would pick up only my daughter to spend time with. After my mother disagree wit...h me on a puppy, she threatened me with police. After 6 days she called CPS and said I was starving, beating and mistreating my daughter. She would then proceed to call the police to do wellness checks on ONLY my daughter. No case was opened with CPS and the police officers always found all of my children well kept. After these actions and results, she decided she still wanted to proceed further (during these times, I didn't feel comfortable with my daughter spending alone time with my mother). I was informed 3 days before court my mother applied for emergency custody for my daughter and legal custody. I was shocked, astounded and hurt by the complaint she submitted out of spite and anger, that she would potentially destroy my family if I didn't find help! And immediately!! I originally attempted a references for an attorney my sister interned for, he was unable to help due to conflict of interest. He highly recommend Mrs. Catherine White. When I meet Mrs. White I was in a panic and lost, she did have a work load but she listened to me and heard me. I don't know how much stress or of an overload the case would have been, but she took me on! I was intimidated about the process, I didn't want my mother's false allegations to be a representation of me. Mrs. White understand people lie, and unfortunately situations like mine happens. She got to know me and seen, yes I'm not perfect but I love my children and do for their best interest and fought for me. She informed me of alot, and gave alot of guidance and great counsel! She exceeded every thought and expectation I had. I greatly enjoyed working with her, I would highly recommend her for hire! She's well versed and is very knowledgeable, in my opinion she has morals I feel more should hold and she's not all about the money. She's about helping and defending you and your family!! If you can call her first, you will not have to call anyone else.

Catherine went above and beyond in order to help me resolve a very difficult divorce. She made the process seem effortless although it was very very difficult. She answered every call that I put into her and I dealt with her personally especially when I need it to understand the process. She's very k...nowledgeable and helped me to avoid several pitfalls. I will gladly recommend her to anyone who is dealing with a difficult divorce or family matter. She cares and she gives her all. I am so thankful that I found her.

Catherine M. White is nothing but amazing. When I first met Catherine she was very nice, helpful, and honest. As a father, I was concerned about seeing my child and Catherine made sure that I exercised my rights as a father. She never missed an appointment or a court date, very organized, and most ...importantly with her busy schedule she always made time for her clients. There is honestly nothing I can say bad about her, I would recommend her to any and all of my friends, strangers, and family members. She helped me with my case and did a great job with getting everything I wanted as father in my situation. Thank you Catherine.

This is being written to any Man that is going through a divorce with children. I would like to start with saying that I am beyond trying to comprehend to what is going on in my divorce right now. First for men that don't believe your spouse, the one that is supposed to love you and be there for you,... can up and Kidnap your children and take them out of state, and cut off all communication with you and your kids, believe me it happens. Because I am going through this right now. I have not seen my two very young boy's in over a year now. Mom is seeking revenge on me for handing her Dissolution papers last year, because of verbal, mental and physical abuse to me, now I am paying the price for me standing up for myself and my sons, so she answered with kidnapping my sons, and is doing everything in her power to keep them from me no matter who she hurts in the process, including her own sons. This is by far the worst thing I have every been through in my life, it literally feels like two deaths to me. I got to the point where I was just going to give up on the whole situation, and I thought to myself not only are you letting her when, you are giving up on your own kids. Once I said those words back to myself, there was no way in HELL I will ever give up on my sons. So I sought out some legal advise. And I found Attorney Catherine M White online and, with one sit down consultation with her I knew who I wanted to represent me in my case and hired her right on the spot. And her knowledge of Family, Divorce, Separation and child custody was overwhelming to me I have learned a lot from her. When I thought there was no hope on some issues, she has worked her magic and got things turned around in my direction. I actually got to facetime and see my handsome little boys for the first time last night, 05/30/2018, thanks to the hard work and dedication and long hours put in by Catherine. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or custody battle like myself, you can't go wrong. And I will continue praying for my situation, and anybody else that is going through this kind of Horrific situation. GOD BLESS YOU,AND GOOD LUCK AND LOTS OF PERSEVERANCE IS NEEDED. GOD BLESS YOU CATHERINE AND YOUR FAMILY. Thank you, John W
