We chose Kayleigh DavenPort again for our son’s adoption case after successfully closing our TPR case with her. Just as Kayleigh was responsive and extremely diligent in the TPR case, she took us seamlessly from TPR to adoption. She immediately began work on our case and was super efficient in getting us through the process for a successful stepparent adoption. Her trustworthiness and dependability never wavered during our cases. We would trust her over again!

Connors Green and the team at Cape Fear Family Law did an excellent job communicating and engaging when it came to work on my seperation agreement. I have been very satisfied with their work on my case.

I hired Allie Moore during a very difficult divorce, and I cannot say enough good things about her and her team. From start to finish, they were incredibly responsive, thorough, and consistently on point. Allie clearly knows the law inside and out and handled every aspect of my case with confidence and professionalism. She was phenomenal to work with, always accessible when I had questions, and made an extremely challenging process much more manageable. I highly recommend Allie Moore and her team to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.

I can’t recommend Matthew Geiger highly enough. He and his team did a phenomenal job guiding me through my divorce and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel straightforward and manageable. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail gave me confidence every step of the way. I’m incredibly grateful for their support and expertise, and I would strongly recommend them to anyone needing a knowledgeable and compassionate advocate.

Ashly F. went above and beyond outside of business hours to get me the paperwork I needed promptly.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the review! We truly appreciate you taking the time to highlight the hard work Ashly Futch put in for you. Ashly is a total rockstar on the **#BestTeaminLegal**, and we are so glad she was there to get you across the finish line! We often tell her that the "business hours" sign on the front door is more of a "suggestion" to her when a client is in need, but seeing her dedication recognized like this means the world to us. We’re starting to suspect she might actually be powered by a secret, high-grade espresso machine ☕️ we haven't found yet! At Cape Fear Family Law, our "We Take Care" mission means doing whatever it takes to ensure our clients feel supported, even when the sun goes down. Now that the paperwork is off your plate and in the right hands, we hope you can finally breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy some well-deserved peace of mind! **#BestTeaminLegal**

Marcus was responsive, courteous and professional

Response from the owner:I love hearing about any of our team being responsive and courteous, much less professional - of course I EXPECT it of Marcus, because it's part of his character - but I love hearing about!!! Thanks for the review and wishing you all the best in your future!

If I could give more stars, I would. In my time of need, Granger Benson and his team eased my pain and suffering while helping me when I needed it most. I never could've made it through everything without them. I recommend them for even the most impossible tasks because I know I can rely on them.

Had the pleasure of working with Roy Jacobs and his team for the entirety of my divorce, child custody, and child support process. They guided me through it with an incredible amount of professionalism, subject matter expertise, and empathy. They made a painful process as painless as possible, and I cannot thank them enough. I give nothing but my highest recommendation for this firm, Roy, and his team to anyone requiring legal representation or counsel regarding Family Law.

Child custody and visitation are two of the most important issues that stem from a relationship failing, but they are not the only issues. Often with relationship dissolution the financial tensions are extreme. Managing retirement division through equitable distribution and cash flow between two homes through alimony is fraught with conflict. We take care to guide clients through the legal landscape, out of court negotiations, and in court processes that sometimes are needed when parties cannot agree.
