I had a very involved case. Catherine was very supportive throughout the processes. She handled everything beautifully and I got everything I wanted. I could not be happier with my representation and results. I would recommend Catherine Real to anyone looking for a strong and knowledgable attorney.

Worst attorney ever. All about getting large retainer and then does not deliver results. Not a trial attorney. No client skills. DO NOT HIRE HER!

Catherine W. Real was highly recommended to me when I found myself trying to get out of a horrible marriage in which my children were being abused. I came to Catherine distraught, trapped, and unsure of what could be done. She immediately got an injunction in place so that we were protected. It was a nasty divorce in which I was not only having to prove the abuse to the children but defend my income as well. Catherine was ALWAYS available and quickly responded to calls and/or texts even on the weekends. She put me in contact with experts necessary to protect my children and finances. She is an EXCELLENT trial attorney and won my case. I would highly recommend her in a situation like mine where so much is at stake. My children and I are doing great now and getting our life back.

The worst lawyer I have ever used, ever. One of her ex-associate lawyers even publicly spoke against her.

Catherine Real for a period of approximately 2 years did most of what the other reviews said and more to me. I took her to the Bar and they sided with her. I felt as though I had been accosted by a straight up thug. She operated totally out of bounds of what should be acceptable and gets away with it. Beware! By the time she finished with me I did not have money to pay for another attorney to properly represent me nor could I find one who would go against her.

Catherine Real should not be allowed to practice law. She is performing a great diservice in this community. I spend my and my family's life savings in the period of a few short months per Catherine Real's demands to pay or leave urgent issues on my case unresolved. She was degrading and hostile in her communication to me and to her staff. She was completely inaccessible, especially during emergencies. Catherine filed an appalling amount of paperwork, but never achieved anything positive on my case. I found out about hearings she went to on my case after the fact. I was never notified of the hearing or the outcome. Huge attorney turnover in her firm. Unbelievably someone like this is still practicing and doing much damage in people and children's lives that are already facing despair.

"Catherine" meets with you for the Initial Consultation, maybe again for your retainer meeting...then never again. The turnover rate in her office makes it impossible to get your case completed. Don't use this lawyer!

She did nothing of value for 2 years billed me the full retainer in the thousands and my case kept getting turned over to new lawyers. Very high turnover. I am reporting her to the Fl. Bar. She needs to be stopped! google Peers turn on judicial hopeful
The campaign's a vendetta, former staff members say. The Bar is filing formal complaints. It's all political, she says.

She is unable to keep any attorneys at her law firm, must be hard to work for, I was there as a client for 1 yr, & she had 3 attorneys leave suddenly, one after another
