Catherine Mary White

I worked with Catherine on establishing a shared custody agreement with my ex girlfriend. I had an hour long consultation, she accepted my case and was able to have it filed and reviewed by a judge in a reasonable time. My ex girlfriend had agreed to everything in advance, so our case was pretty pain...less. We have always had a good relationship so the process was completed with very little acrimony or spite. She explained the fee structure when she agreed to take my case. No hidden fees or extra unnecessary hours billed. REMEMBER: Filing fees are not a part of the attorney fees. She explained this multiple times. Here are some things future clients need to know: 1. Be prepared. Get all the documents requested as soon as possible. The longer you wait to get the longer things will take generally. 2. Don't let forget that your children and what is best for them. It is easy to let anger get in the way of what should be a peaceful process. 3. Things take time. The wheels of government turn pretty slow. Ask for timelines, she will provide them. they will be reasonable. Also remember that other lawyers can work at different paces, people can drag their feet. Be reasonable. 4. E-mail and phone communication can take 24 hours. Be prepared to understand that. If you send an e-mail on Friday night, she won't answer until the following work day. Catherine was competent and a pleasure to work with.

Catherine is absolutely one of the most genuine individuals you could ever come across! Catherine was very direct up front and honest while handling my divorce and child case. meeting Catherine for the first time I felt understood and that she truly cared about my case and especially cared about what... was in the best interest of my child. She made me feel as if my case was the only one that she had. She always responded in a timely manner with my questions and always went above and beyond for me. i would highly recommend her to anyone! Thank you Catherine for all your amazing work!

When I first met with Catherine, (She wouldn't allow for me to call her Mrs. White) she spent a great amount of time with me giving me honest professional opinions on how things would play out in the end. I didn't feel like I was meeting with a typical Attorney. She made me feel at ease every step of... the way. I felt more like I was meeting with a family member that had a law degree. She gave me straight forward answers every step of the way. Not many attorneys will give you their cell phone number and if they do, answering your call is an entirely different story. Several times she answered the phone while she was at the Courthouse. She was available for me just about any time I needed her for reassurance. Most of our meetings were conducted sitting on a couch in a quaint office downtown without the stuffy feeling of sitting at a conference room in a busy office. She has a very sweet and caring disposition but also has the innate ability to put her foot down and demand respect when dealing with opposition. Clearly she is not one to be pushed around in a Court of Law. My case was very complicated and involved dealing with my ex-wife that was charged with an OMVI and 3 counts of child endangerment while transporting my 7, 5, & 3 year old children. It was by far one of the most traumatic events in my life and protecting my children from further harm was my first priority. She had a genuine concern for the safety of the children and my well-being. She often shared experiences about other clients with similar situations and it was very clear that she was very emotionally involved in those individuals. She takes a very genuine and caring approach to her clients. Her results and ethical approach when dealing with clients and opposition speak for themselves. I would recommend her to ANYONE. I can honestly say that my children are more safe today than they were a few short months ago. Thanks for all that you did Catherine!!

Well I served in the Armed forces and was just getting out. Excited to be with my wife and my son again. I got out and moved in with her and her parents until I could get a job and our own place once again. Being reunited with my wife wasn't exactly what I had expected, no hugs, no affection, like sh...e was a stranger. Now I would work all day to come home with my wife accusing me of hurting my little boy. Everyday was the same, just another accusation toward me. This went on and on for about a year. She had started keeping my boy away from me, never letting us play together as a father and son should. Then she moved all her things out of our bedroom, and then I finally realised that something was going on, but I didn't know what exactly. After many failed attempts of trying to talk, they eventually kicked me out and my wife said that her and my son were staying. So I got a place for myself. I was lost, didn't know what to do, where to start...so I contacted Catherine to file for Divorce. I explained everything to her and what they accused me of. I just wanted to see my boy again. Catherine took my case for a low cost because she understood my situation and said you need to see your son. Oddly soon after, my wife filed a civil protection order against me. I couldn't be near her or my boy at all. I thought I had lost. But Catherine was there for me. She explained things, an guided me through everything. She focused on me and my boy. Eventually the day came where we had a trial on my civil protection order. My "wife" sat and told me how evil and horrible I was, and rattled off a multitude of outlandish accusations about me for over an hour. Then Catherine spoke up and before I even got an opportunity to speak the judge threw out the case entirely and it was dismissed. Thanks to Catherine I had won the Protection order trial. This was a huge victory for me. Soon thereafter I was seeing my boy a little at a time. Catherine continued to fight and file for me to see my son more and more. I went from not seeing my son at all, to having him for weekend visits, so that I could be a father again. Every time I had any questions or concerns Catherine was right there for me. This entire case took over a year, and she was with me every step of the way. Now with our divorce finalized and having agreed upon a parenting plan, I am much happier. I now spend time with my son. I would highly recommend Catherine to anyone going through this situation. She's very fair with her pricing, has the drive to keep fighting for you, an I couldn't have chosen a better person for the job. Divorce can be very ugly, and confusing...but I couldn't think of anyone better to help you through what I'll call...The fog of War.
