I was referred to Jamie Getty by my NJ family and matrimonial attorney five years ago. From day one, Jamie dove deep into the facts of my case, was able to decipher through more than ten years of court documents and was absolutely tenacious in advancing my case in North Carolina. Not only is Jamie a highly skilled professional and an excellent attorney, she took a personal interest in me and my children and left no stone unturned. We just won a trial by jury. I can’t thank Jamie enough for her efforts, passion and dedication. I have dealt with many attorneys, both professionally and personally, and by far Jamie is at the top of my list. I highly recommend her. ...

I have worked with Jamie for over a year with my divorce. She was very thorough and her experience (and the firms) in handling different situations was evident and helped in my case. She guided me through this tough time and transition in my life. I definitely recommend Jamie and her firm.

I am very happy with the service I received from attorney Jamie Getty, she is very kind, sympathetic, someone who truly cares not only for you and your case but also for what is in the best interests of, in my case, my child involved. She actively seeks to involve you in decisions about your case so that you are an active participant and a true partner in resolving your case.This was my first time dealing with the legal system and I didn't know what to do or where to turn. My fears were put to rest when I found Mrs Getty she explained everything that was going to happen and was always responsive to all my questions and concerns. She took the time to explain me options so I could weigh the pros and cons of each and come to a conclusion . I would highly recommend Mrs Getty. She was a true professional at all times and knows her way around the court system.

Ms. Getty accepted an appointment by the State to act as interim guardian for my grandmother. This is/was a difficult time for my parents and I, having to experience a loved ones declining health together with dementia. My grandmother had two strokes within a month of each other and it was determined that she required 24/7 medical treatment permanently. The legal battle ensued between a family member and her boyfriend attempting to remove her from the nursing home against medical advice. Ms. Getty was a Godsend to our family. She provided expert legal advice and representation but more importantly, she provided support and compassion. She not only won our case for my permanent guardianship for my grandmother, she went a step further and obtained a protective order for my grandmother to keep anyone from removing her from the nursing home illegally. Ms. Getty genuinely cares for her clients, which is a rare find. I highly recommend Ms. Getty for your legal needs.

Before retaining Ms. Getty, I spent almost 2 years and $24,000 on another lawyer for what should have be a simple, straight-forward divorce. Shortly after the final divorce was finally settled, I needed another family lawyer to address my visitation rights. From the the very first consultation, Jamie had a good grasp of the issues involved and that meeting left me wishing I had found Ms. Getty much sooner to help me with my original divorce. Ms. Getty was always kind, knowledgeable, informative, and maybe best of all: She always returned my emails or calls to answer a question! I hope this review reaches someone out there who is going through the pain and confusion that I know too well from divorce and child custody/visitation... I cannot recommend Ms. Getty strong enough, and I know that anyone needing a family attorney needs someone with Ms. Getty's dedication and knowledge to guide you through to calmer waters. Good Luck, and call Ms. Getty as soon as you can for a consultation.

I was reluctant to hire an attorney to help retrieve/recover an expensive engagement ring from my former fiancé. I’d been trying since Sept. 2013 to no avail. From the first meeting in March, 2014, Ms. Getty provided four things I desperately needed: 1) intimate knowledge of the subject and NC law related to it, 2) timely communications and excellent responsiveness to my questions and concerns, 3) understanding and patience with me, 4) determination to achieve a successful resolution that best served my interests. I was able to leave the worry and work to her, and her firm, and focus on my own business and life. I, and my company, will think of Ms. Getty first for our legal needs.

Jamie links all the issues of concern, such as; domestic violence, immigration matters, and other past and current concerns to my case. She ensures that other matters, such as; post separation and child support, were dealt with during the period custody hearing was continued. Her efficiency is due particularly to the effort she puts out to let her client know about deadline dates for documents and filing. Overall, she is a very thorough and effective lawyer who gets results fast.
