Caitlin Louise Fellows

Experienced Family Law Attorney.

As a family law attorney, I have had experience representing clients in high-conflict and complex divorces, including parenting cases involving domestic violence and/or substance abuse (or allegations thereof). As an experienced family law attorney, I have had proven success in the courtroom and in mediation, as well as in negotiating equitable settlements outside of either the courtroom or mediation. As a teacher and an attorney, I use my experience in the classroom and outside of law to better understand and anticipate the practical implications of a parenting plan or child support order and to provide clients with legal documents in their divorce that are going to make sense when they put them into action once their divorce is final. 

I started C. Fellows Law & Education, pllc to be able to provide clients with more targeted/tailored options for family law services.  I recognize that not everybody going through a divorce can afford (or needs) a full-on attorney who requires a multi-thousand-dollar advance fee.  The bulk of my practice is limited representation options and services that I provide for a flat fee so that family law services are more accessible to individuals who might otherwise not seek out legal counsel.

Experienced Education Advocate and Education Professional.

In addition to being an attorney, I have a background in education and have also earned my Masters of Elementary Education.  I use my legal expertise and my background in education to help families navigate the education system and advocate for their child’s academic success. My experience as a teacher helps me ask the right questions and make suggestions when discussing a student’s academic progress. During my teaching experience, I have been involved in my school’s/district’s Racial and Educational Justice and Inclusionary Practices teams. I know what it’s like to advocate for more culturally competent teaching and greater inclusion of students with disabilities from within the system. As both a teacher and an attorney, I am in a unique position to bridge the gap between the “legalese” written in an IEP or 504 Plan and what teaching practices and accommodations should look like in the classroom in order to help a student make meaningful progress.
