Catherine Fleming Lukehart

I am beyond grateful for Catherine Lukehart and the incredible support she provided over the last 2-3 years as she guided me through both a small claims case and a personal injury case. These were long, challenging battles, but Catherine was there every step of the way, offering not just legal exper...tise but genuine care and encouragement. From the moment we started working together, Catherine showed an exceptional level of dedication and attention to detail. In the small claims case, she meticulously handled every aspect, making sure I was always informed and prepared. Her professionalism and clear guidance made a world of difference, leading to a favorable outcome that I couldn't have achieved on my own. I honestly don't know how I would have made it through these cases without Catherine. Her unwavering dedication, expertise, and kindness have had a profound impact on my life. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you, Catherine Lukehart, for being such an amazing advocate and friend.

Catherine Lukehart is a beyond amazing and exceptional attorney. She is honest, reliable, extremely knowledgeable and she exudes integrity. She handled my very sensitive case with great compassion and empathy. There are no words that could accurately express my immense gratitude for Catherine Lukehar...t's legal representation on my behalf. It's quite obvious that "character matters" to Catherine as that is clearly shown in the way she chooses to conduct herself. She is an amazing attorney that I would highly recommend. Thank you so very much Catherine Lukehart...you are simply the BEST!

My call to Catherine Lukehart was desperate. My previous lawyer had put me in a precarious position. He had done nothing to further my interest in a very complicated case and then quit unexpectedly after he reached the end of his retainer. A call to Orange County Bar Association resulted in a positiv...e referral to Catherine Lukehart’s office. Lukehart listened. She asked me questions my previous attorney ignored. In a couple hours, she understood the case better than my previous attorney ever did, and knew what needed to be done. And it wasn’t pretty. I’m still amazed she took this case. After a two-year ordeal that involved - literally - a crate load of evidence that included about 2,000 pages of medical records and hundreds of pages of texts and emails, Ms. Lukehart negotiated a reasonable settlement to a case that looked impossible. Understanding what Lukehart does is why she is recommended many times. During conferences, Lukehart keeps it real. Her meetings are productive. Her questioning skills, coupled with a keen sense of case law, lead to legal strategies that work. Most importantly, she was able to help me make common sense judgments that subsequently affected the positive outcome of the case. At no point did she make a decision without my absolute consent. At no point did I feel pressure to make a decision I felt wasn’t right. Lukehart can explain in detail how the court will see where fault begins and ends according to evidence. And that’s important, especially when you think the whole world should see why you’re right and the other person is wrong. Lukehart’s skill at deposition was artful. During a grueling 400-minute deposition, Lukehart exposed numerous falsehoods the opposing litigant emphatically claimed were true. Lukehart’s personal command of the evidence set her far apart from the opposing attorney. The opposing litigant was forced to refute many items her attorney had included in his filing because Lukehart’s questioning zeroed in on inconsistencies between what the opposing litigant said and the evidence her office had subpoenaed. During the deposition, Lukehart's questioning cadence never broke. One question followed another question quickly for more than six hours. The opposing litigant didn’t have the luxury of time between questions to nuance answers. My case was handled in the most expeditious, competent, and friendly manner. Lukehart is an attorney who will treat your time, money and your legal case with the utmost of respect. Simply, Lukehart is an attorney you can trust.

Attorney Lukehart has successfully resolved a number of complicated tax matters on my behalf. This is an ongoing and complicated situation which she continues to resolve 100% of the time. This has been a highly stressful time which has been greatly reduced due to her responsiveness, clarity and eff...ectiveness. Her capabilities are superior in the legal profession.

Counselor Lukehart provided me with exceptional service relative to various areas of the law. Ms. Lukehart has been 100% successful in defending me against an abusive and vexatious litigant who sued me ten times for various (bogus) claims. Ms. Lukehart won ALL of the cases in which she repres...ented me, namely, fraud and defamation. The claims were false, but I nevertheless had to appear in court several times to defend myself against the falsities. The best thing I ever did was to retain legal counsel for these matters. The court system is intimidating, cumbersome, and confusing to the non-lawyer victim of frivolous litigation. I encourage everyone to hire a lawyer to represent them. Thanks to Ms.Lukehart, I prevailed in all of these cases and was able to prevent a sinister plaintiff from trying to repeatedly take me to the cleaners by what appeared to be a typical "shakedown" ruse.
