She knows the law and cares for her clients too

Catherine and her team made me feel very safe from the moment I contacted them. Never having had any previous legal problems before Catherine and Lori put me at ease right away. I was not sure what to think or do. She talked to me and gave me advice. She treated me like a real person and not a number... or a $ sign. She even answered the phone after hours to answered questions and talked me through some scary moments which calmed down my anxiety. I felt like she was a friend from the moment we first talked about the case. I did as she advised on every step and my end result could not have been better. When the case was dropped she and her team were smiling as much as I was. I could hear it in their voice voice. I don't have a lot of friends that need the kind of legal help that she provides but I guarantee if I hear of anyone I know that need a criminal lawyer I will make sure to tell them they need to call her

Catherine will protect your child's rights.

From the very start Catherine was there to help my child. She was his advocate. My child was in a legal situation that I was powerless to help him with. Catherine helped me navigate through legal matters, I had absolutely no experience with. Her experience and counsel guided us in the right directi...on and ultimately resolved the matters quickly. I am so thankful for her service and would recommend her to any parent. She cares about protecting children's rights.

Catherine saved me from a damsel in distress!

The charge was stalking and my prior attorney had left me feeling light in the wallet and resigned to defeat. But given the penalties and stigma of a conviction, I knew I had to do better. I took to Avvo, where Catherine provided by far the most thoughtful and relevant answers to my questions and s...ome useful insights of her own. It was clear she’d successfully defended many in my situation. More importantly, she understood my psychology and frustration. Her compassion and commitment are genuine. In reviewing the charge against me Catherine quickly identified weaknesses and defenses that never would have occurred to me—including instances in which the accuser appeared to be the aggressor. In court Catherine forced the accuser to admit time and again that my alleged conduct did not violate Utah’s stalking laws. Catherine had a laser focus and fast, forceful responses. It was encouraging to watch the prosecutor grow smaller and smaller in his chair as the hearing progressed. Catherine’s rates are absolutely affordable and her flat-fee arrangement encourages you to be in constant communication with her. You don’t have to worry about “running up the bill” with trivial matters—nor should you, as your case may well turn on what seems at first glance a minor detail. In Catherine you get an advocate who brings the experience of both defense attorney and judge. Not only does Catherine know the law, but she knows how the local legal system actually works. Do appreciate this advantage! Catherine provided an excellent service both to me and to the community at large, in that she protected a good and necessary law from being cheapened and abused by a vengeful accuser. I would absolutely recommend Catherine to anyone in need of criminal defense. If you find yourself charged with a crime, your first call should be to Catherine Cleveland.

Catherine Cleveland response to AVVO, impressive.

I may seek her employment as my attorney in a Kanab case. I would have liked her to have responded again to my email to her firm, but I understand how hard it is trying to make a living as an attorney. I have no reason to believe she is anything but a well informed, hard working, and professional ...attorney. I am sorry I am not yet a client, and I hope this review is helpful, but she was very prompt in getting back to my somewhat cryptic legal question and I feel she would work hard to keep her client informed of their case.
