I am beyond thankful that I found Kathy Lucas when I needed a family attorney. I was blindsided by an impending divorce that was far more contentious than I could have ever imagined. I was scared, heartbroken, and completely unprepared. Ms. Lucas was compassionate and sympathetic, yet forthcoming in her explanation that, whether I wanted it or not, I was in for a fight. She guided me through one of the darkest times of my life and negotiated a settlement far superior to that which I had initially resigned myself. Ms. Lucas is knowledgeable, honest, and tough, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she has my highest recommendation both as a person and an attorney.

Kathy is very knowledgeable about NC family law and has done an excellent job representing me. She is dedicated and determined to get the best solution possible. I would certainly recommend her to anybody needing help with child custody, divorce, or any other family law matter.

I feel so fortunate that Kathy worked with me on my legal matter and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of the legal services she offers. There is no doubt that I received a larger monetary settlement than I would have without her knowledge and experience in such negotiations. Kathy did a great job keeping me updated throughout the process and I felt that it was important to her to do a good job. I also enjoyed working with her as a retired professional myself because I felt that we related to each other very well. Her staff is absolutely top notch as well as they are friendly, professional, and very committed to providing quality service.

Working with Kathy was a great experience in a not so great time in my life. She listened, was compassionate, empathetic, and knowledgeable. She kept me informed every step of the way and always had my best interest at heart. I would highly recommend Ms. Lucas and her staff. I could not be more happy with how they took care of me.

Not only did Kathy respond quickly during the holidays as a new client. She made sure that i felt valued and a priority through the entire process. There wasn’t a time where she had me wondering or confused. She did what was best for me and my daughter while making sure to explain everything about every process we came upon. I have had many lawyers but Kathy will always have my business and will be on my all time list of favorites. I cannot recommend her and her staff enough as their level of professionalism and compassion are indescribable.

Kathy guided me through a situation equitably, efficiently and economically, and has continued to be responsive to minor inquiries following resolution of my situation. The staff at her new firm has also been very helpful, and I've referred my son to them for advice and guidance he needs.

If you're ever unfortunate enough to need divorce or other family matter services, I strongly suggest Mrs. Lucas. There is no confusion as to whether she is working for you or the other side. She commits and will take care of you!
