Review Cathy Hersch

LIFE SAVER!!!

Posted by

Cathy Hersch came into my life at a time I really needed some help. She was amazing! She embodies a rare combination of vast knowledge from her years of experience along with authentic compassionate and caring. She speaks in language I can understand and always makes the time to answer all my questions or concerns. She has brought my family back together again after a difficult and painful time. Thank you Ms. Hersch today and always!!

Great Attorney and a great person to work with. She resolves difficult issues with her exceptional approach.

Posted by

Ms. Hersch drafted the Marital Settlement Agreement exactly the way we had hoped for and continued her advice until the judgment. I think our unique case could not have been handled any better than the way she handled. She also did not charge for extra services that were not considered as part of our case.
