Catherine Ryan Borum

Stay clear of this law firm!! They are liars, crooks, & thieves. I was charged well over $10,000 for Cathy to do absolutely nothing on my family law case. It was like she was representing the other party instead of me as her client. Not to mention she never showed up to court on time and she lied and... told me she was at court when she really wasn’t (as I heard a phone call where she called her paralegal to see if she told me Cathy wasn’t at court yet because she had already told me she was there.) also she started that phone conversation with her paralegal in this manner “What’s up b***hes” very unprofessional! Also orders were served to the wrong address which was their rightful mistake after I gave her paralegal all the proper information she needed to ensure she could serve orders to the right person/address and it was still served to the wrong person and you guessed it, I was still charged for all this. Not to mention they are still charging for phone calls when I literally talked to her paralegal and was told Cathy would review my billing statement since this law office has done absolutely nothing for my case. Oh and get this my case was DISMISSED and how did I find out? I had to hire another attorney after I felt this law office was dropping the ball left & right and wasn’t doing what was in the best interest for me and the new hired attorney found all this out, got me my dismissal court paperwork all within 24 HOURS!! Please stay away from this crook of a lawyer and law office and incompetent staff. I pray this law office gets their karma for taking advantage of innocent folks and ripping them off with their greed of “attorney” if you all want an exceptional attorney whom will not just take your money just because they can and want someone whom will really fight for your case e-mail me, I can give you all the best attorney ever. Also once I hired this new attorney to pick up the ball where Borum law firm dropped it and it was discovered my whole case was dismissed this new attorney even REFUNDED all my money! Take my word STAY AWAY FROM BORUM law firm!! I hope this saves someone from spending thousands of dollars like I did for absolutely nothing!! Also I will be reporting to the BBB and contact the licensing board regarding this law firm.

HIRE THIS ATTORNEY IF YOU NEED TO WIN! I never got married with divorce in mind but it happens...and to me it happened in a very big way! My spouse immediately went for the throat after I caught the cheating, asking for money and custody claiming everything in a divorce war chest including physical... abuse, mental abuse, drug abuse and other criminal activities. Needless to say I was terrified when the waterfall of legal threats began to drown me and my business. I even spent a night in jail due to false accusations. Get ready for tough love and facts during the first meeting! This lawyer is more that qualified, is tough as nails and will give it to you strait in order to prepare you for battle. She was very prepared for my case, empathetic, always available, returned calls and I never had to question a bill. She will skillfully negotiate with the opposition and make you feel protected when you are standing in front of the judge. Ultimately I got more than what I needed because we were prepared. My life was put back on course and I have a great relationship with my child. Catherine Borum is the BEST attorney you can have in a that horrible situation. Don't wait until they fire the first shot.

I hired "Cat" for my child custody case, which was a very sophisticated case. She knew what experts and other lawyers that my case needed! It was a very tough time for me as many times my child was in danger and I need answers fast, and I got them extremely fast. I am very thankful to her and her ...staff for working so hard with my case and doing an absolutely fantastic job! I would recommend her to anyone that needs a family lawyer in DFW and would tell them she is the best you can get!!

Catherine goes above and beyond and actually CARES about her clients. I had a very messy case and she was there for me every step of the way. She would even call me just to see if I was okay. She is very knowledgeable of the law . She is tough, aggressive and very caring . There aren't enough words t...o express the type of person and lawyer she is. Catherine Borum is by far the best Lawyer in DFW area!!!! I have referred numerous clients to her. If your looking for a great Attorney Catherine is your lady!!!
