Ms. McDonough and her able assistant handled my divorce case over several years. Happily, my case did not need to go to a court trial, but she advised me well, provided useful referrals, and handled all the court and other paperwork expeditiously. Communication was prompt and clear. Highly recommended.

Kate and her team recently represented us in a legal situation that up until hiring her, we had been fighting for over two years without any success. It was not until we hired Kate that we finally felt like we may have a chance at some closure and relief from an incredible ongoing burden. Kate, Lourdes and the team were highly professional. Kate’s strategy stood out in comparison to our previous experience working with other attorneys. She draws on a culmination of years of practice, intuition and experience and it shows in all her work. She had a strategic plan and communicated with us every step of the way. He bill rate was very fair and she was very honest in her billing hours. Kate was able to help successfully deliver an outcome that all our previous legal counsel failed to produce. Most importantly she treated us with respect and we felt as though she genuinely cared about the outcome of our case. I would highly recommend Kate McDonough and her staff.

Jaime has stuck with me through the long hall and has been excellent in helping me fight the district for
my sons’ free and appropriate education. With two special needs sons it has been trying, but she brings
her knowledge and grit to the table and can be quite the force to recon with. With her help, one of my
sons is in a better non-public placement and my other son now has the IEP for which I had been fighting
for years. I am glad to have her on my team, helping me fight for both of my son’s education!

First of all I give thanks to God for putting the right people in my path, one of them is attorney Jaime Seaton. I am very grateful for her help, commitment and for making us feel confident in her knowledge to help my son receive the right education for his disability. We would not have been able to do this process alone. Thank you very much and to you also Miss Lourdes for your work and help with the language.

Phenomenal divorce and family law attorney; LGBTQ friendly.
I am so glad I found Kate. She handled my divorce several years ago, and has helped me with various other matters since. My divorce was challenging, with custody concerns, tricky financial issues, and an ex-husband who vacillated between unreasonable stubbornness and argumentative interactions and ignoring us entirely (very unhelpfully). Kate helped me to navigate this minefield and got me what I still think was the best outcome possible, with the least cost and emotional turmoil. She was sensitive throughout; truly someone I felt I could trust in such a vulnerable time.
Kate is still someone I turn to when I need legal advice and she has been unfailingly responsive and helpful. I have referred her to friends gladly when the need has arisen. I am happily remarried now, and there is no one else my wife and I would trust with our legal issues, particularly as we have same-sex parenting interests to protect.

Kate McDonough was the attorney handling the probate for our mother’s estate & most supportive to our large family and multiple heirs. She was very kind & professional during a difficult time. Her guidance through the probate process was invaluable, as was her thorough handling of the many cumbersome legal details required throughout the process. I would highly recommend Kate’s legal services.

I retained Ms. McDonough as my attorney for an appellate matter. She was very professional and always made herself available to me when I had any questions or concerns during the process. She and her staff always made sure I had thorough documentation of the appeals process. I would highly recommend Ms. McDonough will use her if necessary in the future.

I hired Ms. McDonough on two separate occasions and both items were taken care of in a timely and accurate fashion. I have recommended her to many other people to handle their various items as I know she and her support staff do a great job handling legal matters.
