Highly recommended

Today I had a free consultation and it was one of the best experiences with a lawyer I have ever had. Katie was very helpful and even gave me some good information to take home. Her staff was extremely nice and the entire time I was there I felt important. Katie really cares and looks out for your be...st interests not to mention has a lot of experience in family law.

Katie Galanes

Katie is an exceptional lawyer. She is kind, thorough, professional, knowledgeable, timely...and the list goes on. She made what was a very difficult process for me easier to handle, and I can't thank her enough for what she did. I had absolutely no clue about anything regarding family law, and Katie... made sure to explain every aspect of my case to me so I knew exactly what was going on at every stage. She gave me options when it was time to make decisions, and explained the pros and cons of each choice. When all things were up in the air in my life, I knew I did not have to worry about my rights and my family being protected with Katie as my lawyer. I honestly could not speak more highly of Katie, and would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a family law lawyer.

happy mom

I had a very hard case I was dealing with for quite sometime. We dealt with a visitation request and a reduction in child support from the NCP. It was a very difficult time in my life dealing with the case due to the NCP never being involved in my childs life and already dealing with a previous lawye...r who had no intentions on doing what was best for my child. Katie took charge right away; asked what my goals were for the case and listened to what I thought was best for the situation at hand and gave us some great advice! She kept us informed on a daily basis, sometimes multiple times a day, the rest of the law firm was involved also to give us the best service they could, she always gave great advice and opinions and different options on how the case would or could go and what would be in the best interest for my son. She just makes you feel like shes on your team and like she puts herself in your shoes to know what youre dealing with and going through. Katie is an excellent lawyer and I absolutely highly recommend her!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
