I came to this law firm distraught over a troubling custody battle I was attempting to handle myself unrepresented. It was truly one of the best decisions I made as I felt an immediate sense of relief, support and genuine kindness from Mrs. Schwartz, the partnering attorney's and her staff. She was very compassionate, direct and honest about her values and beliefs surrounding custody battles and her desire for the outcome to always be in the best interest of the children involved. Everyone I have had interactions with have shown extreme compassion and an unparalleled knowledge of Family Law. Christina and Brittany have been supportive, responsive, and very professional through this entire process. I could not have asked for a better support system and legal representation to make sure my voice was heard and the needs of my son were being put first in all of this. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for everything you and your team has and continues to do for me and my son.

During the most absolute gut wrenching time of my life she handled my case with care, compassion, sympathy and knowledge of the law. Immediate comfort during our telephone consultation, well thought advice and a dedication to providing me the best possible outcome given my extreme circumstances regarding my divorce. All while trying to ensure my emotional well being during this difficult transitional time. I would highly recommend Catherine's expertise to anyone going through a legal, and emotional journey during divorce. Her staff is amazing, specifically Brittany Mason. There was not one email or phone call that was not answered. Brittany, your dedication, hard work, core concern just shines through in all you do! A sincere thank you from my heart. What an amazing lawyer and team!

Catherine is such a special person. I felt so much relief when I met her because she takes her job really seriously and is really talented. I was going through the most difficult time in my life and I am so thankful that I found Catherine to help me. She is so strong and confident. Not only does she want the best for you, but she works really hard for you. She handled my case with great care and because of that my life has changed drastically and it was all because of Catherine.

Hello Since 2012 I’ve been through 4 attorneys, since the consultation and hiring of Ms Catherine Schwartz and her office staff it’s been an “awakening” and eyebrow raising of many who looked into my case. She and her staff are affectionate and caring to my personal situation, divorce involving children. As intimate and emotional this may be, from the very first week of her acquisition, once to understanding , things started to change. The Court system moves slowly for a period of time for all to come to review and understanding. She is up front, warm and sincere. Defuses anything lit. She never stopped communication with me because she understands what’s going on, a true veteran of the court and well known within this community. Without hesitation, she is recommended by me. The gathering of information her office staff compiled, and , her pin points to accuracy. When our court date arrived, proper representation and presentation. Very professional. I received primary physical custody of all of my children. Here is the 6th star ⭐️ Ms Schwartz I can’t say enough about your office.

Ms. Schwartz and Jemina treated my daughter and my case as if it was their own. They fought hard for me AND WON. Ms. Schwartz encouraged me and advised me and kept me going when I felt I would crumble. I could not give Ms. Schwartz a higher recommendation. She treated me like family, and I feel she is now forever part of ours.

I contracted the law offices of Catherine A. Schwartz as I needed help in a domestic issue which was time sensitive. The attorney and paralegal who helped me in the firm were both professional and caring, and they were efficient and got the job done very quickly. I was well pleased with the manner in which my case was handled, and if needed again, I would absolutely use this lawfirm again! A+++ (Kim H.)

Malvina and Brittany both did an excellent job handling my case. I had a difficult case that could have very well turned out unfavorable to me. Thanks to both Malvina and Brittany we were successful.

All of the legal representatives were so helpful with great customer service. Lasandra made the experience less intense and put my mind at ease on more than one occasion. I am very pleased with the experience and feel blessed to have found this law office in a very low time in my life. Forever grateful!

I've worked with several different lawyers at this law firm due to my case taking almost three years to resolve. My ex-husband was very uncooperative and did everything he could drag out our case. Malvina, Catherine, Jeremy, and Lyssandra were great to work with. They were patient with my case. Every time I called to speak with Lyssandra (paralegal), she was very friendly and very knowledgeable! When it came to our trial, Malvina represented me very well! I swear she knew more about me than I did myself. She was very familiar with my case and very professional in court. When the judge gave the final ruling, I was awarded what I wanted plus more. The attorneys at Catherine A Schwartz Law Firm are wonderful people and I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Being arrested for a DUI and felony concealed carry was devastating. I had no experience with the court process or protocols. With less than a 24 hour notice, Catherine Schwartz arrived early to my court appearance, clearly explained the process that would unfold and explained details every step of the way. She and her office staff were remarkably professional and made a stressful situation manageable. The results of my case were much better than I anticipated. I strongly recommend this office and Catherine's services.
