Shared Parenting

Hiring Catherine to represent me in my child custody case was one of the best decisions I could have made. Her services were reasonably priced, and from the very beginning she took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and give honest, practical advice. My child’s mother moved ou...t of state with our child with little to no notice, and I was devastated. While we weren’t able to obtain primary custody, Catherine fought hard to get me as much parenting time as possible and helped ensure that my child support obligation was little to none. That made it much easier for me to stay actively involved in my child’s life and maintain a strong relationship despite the distance. What I appreciate most is that Catherine helped me see the glass half full during one of the hardest times of my life. When I was discouraged, she kept me focused on what I could control and reminded me that maintaining a meaningful relationship with my child was what mattered most. Looking back now, nine years later, my child has graduated from high school, and we continue to have a wonderful relationship. I truly believe Catherine’s guidance and advocacy played a major role in making that possible. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated family law attorney.

I'm so thankful!

Navigating a divorce is never easy, but working with Catherine made an incredibly difficult time much more manageable. From our very first meeting, she demonstrated not only deep expertise in family law but also a level of compassion and understanding that truly set her apart. Catherine was always... responsive, clear in communication, and honest about what to expect. She guided me through every step of the process with confidence and empathy, ensuring my interests were always protected. It didn't feel like just another case for her, it was direct and intentional. Thanks to her diligence and professionalism, my case was resolved as smoothly as possible. I’m incredibly grateful for the support I received and would recommend Catherine without hesitation to anyone going through a divorce. Thank you again, Catherine, for being a strong advocate and a steady hand when I needed it most.

She's worth the money

She was upfront from the beginning about how things may go, and was realistic about how much it would cost? I just know for me the price was worth it and she doesn't waste your time or money I would highly recommend her male or female it was very happy with my outcome.
