I hired Caleb as my back up for amicable mediation. When this plan failed, Caleb stepped in as my full time lawyer. In the 2 year 9 month long divorce process, I was unbelievable impressed with Caleb (and Susan, his para-legal!). There was no detail overlooked. He was totally dedicated to representing my needs and more importantly, what was best for my three kids. He is a fierce negotiator which resulted in avoiding court and ended up with a fair and reasonable settlement. I HIGHLY recommend Caleb.
Caleb was my attorney in my divorce and custody case. He is very skillful, knowledgeable and compassionate. Caleb kept me informed about the progress of the case, updated me with news from opposing counsel, and always explained everything I did not understand at first. Caleb fought for me and my son and got more than I imagined going into this. He represented me in trial and built a solid case to present to the judge. Caleb always went above and beyond in all areas with my best interest in mind. He remembers every word I said to him, every detail and date. He honestly cares about his clients and thoroughly loves his profession. He is a great lawyer and he exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him!
