Cathy served as a divorce attorney and also helped with my mom's estate, when she learned that she had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. Cathy remained professional and comforted my mother when dealing with her legal battles, as well as fought to help my mother in every way possible. When we lost my young mother in the summer of 2012, Cathy still rallied for us and helped us in every way she could, knowing our situation. My sister was about to turn 18, and I in my early 20s, and this was clearly a situation we never expected to handle ourselves. She also shed light on things that we needed to take care of and without such insight, our mom's legal issues would have been a mess. I should also mention Josh that helped Cathy with our case(s) and was also helpful and responsive when we came to them with questions. We sincerely appreciate the help of Christoff and Christoff attorneys and will forever be grateful for making our tragic situation that much easier. I will recommend Cathy for as long as she is in practice!

Throughout the process, I received inaccurate and misleading information. I was initially told in a text message that both my husband and I needed to take a class through victims' assistance to remove a no-contact order, which was incorrect. I was later told the policy changed and only my husband needed to attend, which also proved to be untrue. Additionally, I was instructed to bring $343 in cash for a diversion fee, only to find out the amount was actually $334 and went toward court fees instead. Furthermore, on the day of my court appearance, Emily texted to inform me she would be late due to another hearing and suggested I arrive later as well. Regarding the resolution of my case, I was told the diversion program consisted only of watching a video. However, after agreeing to it before the judge, I discovered it requires attending 10 weeks of ATV classes at $25 each. Crucial details were either miscommunicated or entirely withheld, forcing me to follow up a week later to ensure there were no additional surprises despite my full compliance with all requirements. I am deeply disappointed by the lack of transparency, accuracy, and professionalism provided during this stressful time.

I had an initial meeting to be quoted a price for our case. I was quoted a specific amount for guardianship to be filed and hired an attorney from this firm, paid in full in advance, etc. This was to cover all expenses, including hiring a guardian ad litem to cover my child. My child has level 3 Autism and is non-verbal, among a multitude of other diagnoses. The initial hearing was set prior to my child's 18th birthday which I found out ONLY from a document that was mailed to my child from the court. My attorney NEVER told me when we were scheduled for court, EVEN after I sent an email to inquire since I hadn't heard anything. Unfortunately, we ended up in the emergency room on the initial court date and it had to be cancelled. This was communicated to the attorney. The hearing was set for another date which in the meantime required a court order to get a psychiatric admission until our next court hearing was to take place due to an extremely violent outburst with property destruction and aggressive behavior. I was told verbally when the hearing was and never received anything in writing. Then, I called prior to the hearing to verify and was charged to speak to a paralegal/assistant to find out when we had court. Then, our court hearing took place and the attorney and GAL had to go back and discuss the case privately with the magistrate. I was informed that "this happens all the time" and awarded only temporary guardianship since my child wasn't served. Unfortunately, the reason for the temporary guardianship was ONLY due to my child not being served as he was now over the age of 18 which requires him to be served. Had the attorney known the statute and/or paid attention to detail, all would have been done on the initial hearing date because he could have easily had my child served due in his inpatient stay. I then had an additional bill around $450 with everything that occurred to date (and only temporary guardianship). Fast forward to February, there was nothing filed for permanent guardianship so now we would have a gap in guardianship which could cause issues with the unpredictability of our child. So, I called and asked to speak to a manager because clearly the attorney didn't have his shit together. I was told one of the owners would reach out. The next day, I received, an email with a new petition to sign and a hearing date which was 15 or so days AFTER expiration of our initial temporary guardianship. In court, there was NOT a proposed order drafted so it had to be submitted before the magistrate could sign anything. It was for be submitted on that day along with our notorized oaths. The oaths and proposed order were then submitted but the oaths were not notorized (even though the GAL saw us sign and could have notorized it). I was told by our attorney that he submitted it because he just wanted to get it in instead of waiting. Nothing was signed that day because the magistrate's clerk was out for the week. I called the following Monday and the magistrate was out. Due to the importance of having this done, his clerk messaged him and got the order signed. So, I took off of work early and went to the courthouse to get a certified copy of the guardianship on Monday. This could not be issued due to no notorized oaths, an issue that could have been prevented had the attorney known that it is required. So, I called their office again, requesting a manager and was told one of the owners would reach out the following day. So, I went to get the oaths (emailed to me) notorized and the one listed for me had my husband's name in one of the three locations that lists our name on the document. I had to call and have a corrected copy sent to me so the bank could print it and we could get it notorized. That was done quickly, thanks to Karli. Then, I walked to the courthouse to once and for all get a certified copy of the guardianship only to find out that my attorney also hadn't filed a Letter of Guardianship which MUST accompany the order signed by the magistrate. Fortunately, the clerk filled it out so I was able to wrap up this six month process! I would never recommend hiring this firm for any type of guardianship case. The owners don't care enough to address issues cause by their staff.
