I recently fired my previous attorney who literally did nothing on my case despite taking my money and stringing me along for months. It was incredibly frustrating and stressful. Then I hired Curtis, and what a complete difference! From day one, he’s been extremely hands-on, responsive, and fully invested in my situation. He’s working hard, staying on top of every detail, and fighting aggressively to get the best possible outcome for me. He actually communicates with me regularly, explains things clearly, and makes me feel confident that I finally have someone in my corner who truly cares and is putting in the effort. If you need an attorney who will roll up his sleeves and battle for you instead of just collecting a retainer, Curtis is the one. I’m so grateful I switched to him. Highly recommend Curtis and his paralegal Jackie l, I feel blessed to have them by my side

When it comes to the uncertainty of family law court and processes, you cannot go wrong with having the professionals at The Law Office of Curtis W. Daugherty. Everyone from the paralegal to Curtis himself are professional, knowledgeable and caring. They helped me navigate one of the worst periods in my life, without hesitation and with caring professionalism. This is the best money I've ever spent in my life. Thank you Curtis and staff for your gracious assistance!
I highly recommend Curtis Daugherty for your legal representation I was pleasantly surprised at how efficient and friendly they were during difficult times. Highly recommend Curtis Daugherty.for your legal team
I highly recommend Curtis Daugherty . Him and Jackie do excellent work. Curtis is on top of everything and will do anything he can for you. Mine was a complicated divorce case. Also price is reasonable.
We worked with Curtis over the course of several years on an incredibly difficult child support case, and we are so grateful for his persistence, professionalism, and strategic thinking. The system often feels stacked against the noncustodial parent, but Curtis never gave up. He was able to reverse an unlawful levy, successfully argue for a temporary reduction in support due to special circumstances, and thoughtfully build a case to hold the other parent accountable when they weren’t acting in good faith. Curtis is not only knowledgeable and thorough—he’s also compassionate and realistic, which helped us stay grounded through a stressful legal process. If you’re looking for an attorney who will fight smart and stay the course, Curtis is the one you want in your corner.
After meeting with several attorneys, finding Curtis and Jackie was truly a godsend. During an incredibly stressful and emotional time, they provided much-needed relief. Curtis has a calming presence while still being honest and straightforward, and both he and Jackie made sure I understood every step of the process. I have never felt so supported and genuinely cared for by a legal team. From working well with opposing counsel to patiently answering my anxious questions, I always knew Curtis had my best interests at heart. I highly recommend Curtis to anyone in need of a dedicated and compassionate legal dream team!
I highly recommend The Law Office of Curtis Daugherty. He handled my husband’s case professionally and was aggressive when he needed to be. He was able to help my husband with custody and child support issues and overall the outcome was better than what we could have asked for. He cares about his clients and knows exactly what he is doing. Although, it was a long stressful process in the beginning it was worth it in the end and we could not have asked for a better attorney and his paralegal Jackie. We most definitely trust him and his team for any future issues that may arrise to represent my husband again. Thank you.
In my case, Curtis absolutely did not fight the way I would have liked a lawyer to fight in court after having put down thousands upon thousands. I hired him 8/2022 and pleaded to him that I needed child support to be reduced asap because I was getting it based off overtime that I was no longer able to do. It took about a year to finally get it reduced. He kept saying to wait till the divorce settlement was finalized. He did not speak once during the recorded session until I had to remind him of what we agreed to say. He did not mention anything to the judge about my ex lying in court about the custody agreement we had agreed to outside of court. Lastly, I based my decision of giving the ex the entire house because of debt she had incurred. There were pages blacked out on debt my ex alleged she had and he said, “Oh yeah that happens sometimes when pages get faxed over. I asked him point blank, “ Did you make sure this debt was before we got separated?” He replied,” yes I checked it”. I found out this was false because Best Buy Credit Card had $38,000 on it and there was only a couple of thousand after we separated. Curtis does not do his due diligence as an attorney and does not speak up in court to the judge when you ask him to say your side. This was my experience and my suggestion is to find another attorney!
My divorce proceeding was at a standstill and I had been battling this for 9 years and making very little progress fighting a bully attorney. Bringing in Curtis Daugherty and his team made a world of a difference. In 7 months he navigated through the legal system and shut up this bully attorney on the other side. He met his match with Curtis. Right on Curtis. Well now my divorce is final and I thank Curtis and his team for bringing this nightmare to a close. He has been nothing but professional and extremely knowledgeable of the legal system. I truly appreciate and value all he has done for me. Curtis Daugherty is truly a master at his trade. He not only fights, he wins.
Great attorney. Been using Curtis for three years. Always calls you, you never have to call him. His Paralegal, Jackie is just as good. He's got me a couple of very valuable wins. Highly recommended!
