Having Eugene and Kathy by my side in a child support matter helped me to relax. I checked off all the boxes above because even being the Respondent in this case I feel I came to a very reasonable agreement with the petitioner because Rugene and Kathy knew exactly what approach should be taken and they really were able to make me breath a sign of relieve when the final outcome came to play. Thanks Eugene and Kathy the stress is over.

Eugene and Kathy are amazing. They were so helpful and really put the time into my case. Their responsiveness, effectiveness of communication, friendliness, and the way everything was explained to me made this a very comfortable process. I've had limited experience with the legal system, but I would definitely recommend Eugene Dougherty to a friend. I couldn't have had a better outcome.

After determining that I needed better representation for my complex divorce case, I contacted Eugene R. Dougherty. Having Eugene represent me greatly reduced my stress level and he ultimately helped me reach a favorable settlement; helping to resolve a complicated retirement plan split issue. Eugene and his paralegal Kathy kept me informed throughout the divorce process. Phone calls and emails were returned without delay. Professional. Efficient. Personable. I highly recommend this law firm.

Eugene and Kathy (paralegal) worked tirelessly and efficiently against my wrongful dismissal from the educational institution I was attending at the time. I was impressed with how well they listened to my case and their direct and candid assessment of how to approach my appeal. I also appreciated the support they provided me. I was confident that they were working hard for me and making sure no stone was left unturned to provide me justice. Needless to say, I won my appeal. I highly recommend Eugene to any student who feels their educational institution is treating them unfairly.

Gene and Kathy have been extremely helpful throughout the divorce proceedings. They take the time to discuss the process and provide advice. They are quick to respond to any of my questions and remained transparent in letting me know progress updates of the proceeding. What is a difficult thing to go through, Gene and Kathy were at my side every step of the way.

I always felt I had a very available and most competent counsel with Eugene and Kathy. They were able to steer me away from a trial and bring closure in a timely fashion. I do not hesitate to recommend them highly

Eugene took over a litigious case that had many aspects and negotiation tactics. He applied his special skill set to uncover common ground, settle disputes in a logical, respectful manner and helped the opposing counsel realize that the benefits of a finalized settlement outweighed continued disputes where legal expenses would outweigh any benefits for either party. It was a pleasure working with Eugene through every step and he helped me get my life back on track.

Mr Dougherty was recommended to me by a friend when I was going through my divorce and I have to say he was the best lawyer that I could have asked for, my ex husband was a piece of work and Mr Dougherty got everything me and my girls deserved. He listens, hes caring and concern about what you are going through and you can reach out to him any time and he will always get back to you.

I hired Mr Dougherty after my initial divorce decree was finalized. I wish I had hired him initially. I believe I would have received a much more fair outcome. He took a genuine interest in my case and was always very responsive. Follow-up was always performed in an accurate and timely fashion. His approach to my case saved me thousands. If you're looking for an attorney with a high level of experience, you found him.
