Katherine Forrest is an EXCELLENT lawyer. She went above and beyond working typical office hours on this matter and provided outstanding legal advice and representation. She is an aggressive lawyer, that doesn't back down. I highly recommend her if you are seeking a Lawyer! I had been told by many attorneys that my case would be very challenging and long due to the issues. Katherine made my tough custody case look easy.

I just recently went through a long and tough divorce process and I couldn't be happier to have had Katherine in my corner. She was extremely understanding. She gave suggestions, but let me choose what was best for me and it all worked out as it should have. Very thankful for her & her fighting spirit. If you need the best family law attorney, look no further.

All Katherine Knows How to Do is WIN!!! Katherine is intelligent, resilient and intensely dedicated to her job. Very engaged, devoted and creative which enables Katherine the ability to strategically plan and execute in yours or your child's best interest. I am a FATHER on ACTIVE DUTY with FULL Physical Custody of my little girl. Katherine is by far the BEST Lawyer in New Bern and possibly the entire state of NC. After my consult with Katherine I hired her the next day.

I have lived in the area almost 2 decades. I recently came to Katherine after seeking a family law attorney who was not only relatable, but someone with a good feel for the local judiciary and well versed on current legal trends in NC Family law -particularly regarding custody issues. I had never met her before but I am so glad I did. First and foremost, Katherine was responsive and immediately put me at ease…this is a golden trait in a lawyer! Second, she was patient, kind and 100% focused on my many questions. She told me straight -even if it wasn’t always what wanted to hear. In Katherine I met an intelligent and strategic family law advocate, one who knows the local players, anticipates moves, and fights for her clients. Bottom line -she was a joy to talk with and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a champion in their corner.

Katherine represented me in my divorce/custody case I could not be more pleased with her zealous legal representation. I never felt like she had anything less than my best interests at heart — she fought for me as though she were fighting her own custody battle and that cannot be said about every attorney.

At a time when caring and support are most needed, Katherine Forrest provided both; she was clear as to the steps that would be undertaken in order to secure a legal separation agreement and move forward with the sad journey to a divorce. I cannot adequately thank her for her kindness, professionalism, and the outcome. I am forever grateful to her.
