James W Claflin Jr

Christmas 2024, I was served divorce and custody papers out of nowhere. It flipped my life upside down. I found Katherine and James Claflin through a recommendation, and from the first call, I knew I was in the right hands. Katherine told me: “I can’t promise the outcome—but you’re going to be ...glad we’re on your side.” She was right. My ex was asking for everything—sole custody, child support, alimony, my pension, my 401(k), and full control. By August 2025, I walked away with a very favorable outcome. I have my legal rights, my kids, my freedom, and a peaceful life again. They weren’t yes-men. They were honest, realistic, and straight with me the whole time. They explained the legal process in a way I could understand. They handled my emotional outbursts, stress, and long emails with professionalism and patience. I was never left in the dark—every court update, every message with my ex, they kept me fully in the loop. I put my full trust in them and never looked back. They also dealt with a very hostile and uncooperative plaintiff—my ex-wife—with absolute grace. I was honestly impressed by how they managed her behavior while keeping things professional and calm. They stayed focused on winning my case while never stooping to her level. They didn’t just argue—they outclassed. Katherine is one of the sweetest and smartest people I’ve ever met. She knows exactly when to be serious, and when to crack a joke to help break the tension. I love her for that. And James—I trusted him immediately. He’s solid, steady, and he took care of everything like a pro. These two make a great team, and I’ll always be grateful I found them. Because of them, I’m more confident. I’m standing tall again. They didn’t just win a case—they helped rebuild me. If you’re going through anything like I did, don’t wait. It would be a mistake not to reach out and at least have them review your case. They were worth every penny. And I’ll be forever grateful. Thank you, James and Katherine Claflin

Divorce is stressful. James and Kathy helped me manage that stress. They answered all my questions (even the ridiculous ones) in a timely manner and kept me up to date on any paperwork that needed signing or documentation that needed to be sent. James was always kind, supportive and respectful ,even... when I was frantic and frustrated. I’m so grateful for all their help and assistance. I do hope it never happens, but if I find myself in need of a divorce attorney again, I would want James on my side once again.

James was the best man for the job of taking care of our assets by creating a will. He was on top of the whole situation with pleasant reminders after we had continued to forget to finalize this. Completing a will is not the task most want to complete, but with James, he made it very smooth and easy ...to understand for us. We feel at peace with the whole process and knowing that things will be taken care in the event something happens to us.

Mr. Claflin represented me in my divorce case. From the first time we met, I felt respected and validated. He was always timely in responding to my questions and I felt he truly cared. I never doubted his sincerity or legal knowledge. If I ever have a legal matter again, he is the first person I wil...l call.
