Divorce Attorney, Founder, Law Office of Catherine Becker Good
When a professional who I completely look up to and respect and trust tells me about another professional who in her words is “a really smart, trustworthy, amazing divorce attorney,” I am immediately interesting in having a conversation with that person. That’s how I got connected with Catherine Becker Good, and after a couple of wonderful conversations, Catherine, who has been a divorce attorney for over 30 years, decided to join the DGS trusted professional team. I am so glad she did, and I have enjoyed getting to know her, reading and publishing her articles, and interviewing her on the DGS podcast.
One Catherine’s website, there is a quote under her name that reads, “I treat every client as if they are my only client.” I loved that because from someone who went through a divorce and oftentimes felt like “just another case” to my attorneys, this is very important to me.
Catherine has a wonderful and warm personality. She is a mother of two adult children, who understands that mother-child bond and the importance of financial support and a custody schedule that feels right to a parent. She is experienced in divorce litigation, and has appeared before many of the judges and staff in her area. But Catherine is also passionate about her clients mediating the divorce if that seems possible.
Catherine has also practiced law in other areas, including wills and estate planning, so if you need a new will and trust after your divorce is final, Catherine can help with that, as well. I truly value having Catherine as a DGS trusted professional!
