Professional, Parent Advocate... Overall amazing!

Caitlin was a partner with the lawyer I hired in October of 2020 and was nothing outside of extraordinary in helping keep me calm, collected and confident that things would turn out in my favor. Caitlin offered advice when I was feeling confused about the process since I have not had extensive histor...y with in the court systems and really eased my mind even when things didn't go quite as expected. A little more than a year later in my family law case, my kids are thriving, safe, and the happiest I've ever seen them. Caitlin exceeded my expectations and more, and when filling in for my assigned lawyer during an unexpected family emergency I was shocked at her ability and calmness to relay everything that needed to be said without hesitation. I absolutely would recommend Caitlin to anyone and already have. I'm so happy for her and her blossoming career. She is fantastic at what she does. Just hire her if you're questioning it at all; I can almost guarantee with 100% certainty you won't be disappointed. Thank you for everything you did for me and my kids Caitlin!

Professional, intelligent and caring

I recently had to hire an attorney for my custody case and was very impressed with the positivity, professional, intelligence and thoroughness of Ms Royse. She went above and beyond for my son and me. Her demeanor and court presence was more than I could have asked for and if I have a need in the fut...ure I will definitely be calling her again. Even though she had multiple cases working at the same time she always made me a priority and no question was regarded as unimportant. She counseled me in a kind and caring fashion always regarding my feelings during this very difficult time. I have much appreciation for Ms Royse and highly recommend hiring her for your needs as well.

Remarkable

Caitlin has been an exceptional resource and guide through the most difficult time of my life. She is knowledgable, confident, creative, and thorough. I couldn't be happier that I switched to Caitlin to manage my divorce, domestic violence pleadings, and parenting plan...I can rest easy at night know...ing that Caitlin and her excellent team is on my side. Of note, Caitlin is also an empathetic and kind person which is so helpful when healing from an abusive relationship.

She did an amazing job! Despite the circumstances.

Caitlin did a wonderful job despite the fact I did not want this divorce. My husband is going through a midlife crisis and pushed for divorce after 25 years of marriage. Caitlin respected my wishes about how I wanted to handle it.

100% Satisfaction

Caitlin helped with a child support modification. She helped through Arbitration and was just perfect! I definitely could not have navigated this process without her. What impressed me most, is how incredibly well prepared she was and how confident she was in court. She's so professional and empath...etic. She realizes how hard it can be to need her services and really helped explain the process so there were no surprises. I can't thank her enough. Caitlin has earned my respect and trust. If you are in need of a competent, hard working lawyer, do yourself a favor and get a consultation with Caitlyn. She is the best!!!!!
